I rarely get mad about anything, but games... that's a different story. I think it's because I put so much effort into them that I expect a positive outcome (read: not getting my ass kicked or losing to some disproportionately difficult enemy), and when I fail I get frustrated.
I think though that if you become violent and/or physically ill, it's probably best if when you start getting mad, you take a quick break for 15 minutes or so and relax. Plus it'll give you some time to think about what you might be doing wrong in the game.
Is it normal to get really mad at a video game ?
