Glitches

The Wheel is Turning, But the Hamster is Dead
I was just curious about everyones favorite/worst/most memorable/etc. glitches ever found in any game. I've come across quite a few and was curious bout other people. A couple of mine:

Prince of Persia Warrior Within: A rather common glitch near the end where you go through the portal and are pretty much stuck. You are supposed to follow someone, but the path is blocked, and the portal wont work again. If this happens, you have to start a new game. Not fun.

True Crime Streets of L.A.: Just a random point when I was fighting some thugs on the street when I fell through the wall and a message popped up saying "Welcome to <no name>". Then the screen just got flickery and I had to turn it off.

Zelda Ocarina of Time: This one had more to do with the system I believe, but I went to turn the power off once on the 64, but it simply didn't turn off. I could still play the game and everything. I played for about ten more minutes just to see if it still worked. Then I just flipped the switch to on, then off, and it finally shut off.
 
I only have one, and that is the RedLine glitch on SOCOM I online. It was the weirdest glitch ever. If people joined and quit in a certen way (only 3 people) in a certan map, you could do so many things that could crash the server.

Ill look for a video of it, and if I find one, ill post it.
 
Back in the Sega Genesis days my friend and I were playing NHL 97 and the play was stopped because a penalty was called, but the player didn't go to the penalty box. So my friend and I would just skate around and try to bodycheck each other and stuff like that.

In Mario Kart on Wario's Stadium there's several places on the map where you can "hop" the wall and cut off entire sections of the course. Once when I was playing my sister she was going to beat me (something unheard of) and in a last ditch effort I pumped my golden mushroom and jumped into the wall even though it was a wall that I'd never hopped before (or since) but sure enough I cleared it and ended up retaining my 573 race win streak.

Its not really a glitch but in Rogue Squadron: Rogue Leader if you fly low in a Y wing and drop a couple bombs and proceed to fly into the explosions you can make the framerate literally drop to 0. It looks like the game freezes but if you give it a couple seconds it very slowly (frame by frame) will pull out of the explosion. The game doesn't lock up, but it comes darn close.

In Jedi Power Battles at certain times... well, actually, the whole game was pretty much one big glitch, which was half the fun.  :lol
 
In GTA Vice City if you park a motorcylce halfway inside a clothes changing marker and get off when you get back on your stuck inside the bike you can run into stuff and not fall off

The Halo series has had so many glitches, exploits, etc discovered its amazing.

Yeah, the one's in Halo are probably my favorite glitches.
 
Oh gheesh.. there's just so many. The one I do the most is getting out of the levels, which I know how to do with ALMOST every level. (I think there's one or two I can't do yet)
 
Yeah, but the thing that amazes me is the harder Bungie tries to stop glitching the more innovative people become in going about glitching. They basically say its part of the game they cannot fix, since some major glitches (like superjumping) are tied to the game engine, and as such would essentially require remaking the entire game.
 
In halo 2, in one of the levels where a bunch of wraiths (i think they're called) are fighting me, and in one of them, I see master chief! whoaaa.....that was weird.
 
Sometimes I'll randomly fall through the level...single and multiplayer. Most often when I have a sword, but some times it is for no apparent reason.
 
In ESPN NFL 2K5,when you throw the ball to somebody... the ball just magnetised to him,its like,i was gonna get an interception,THE BALL WAS GOING RIGHT TO HIS HANDS,when suddenly the ball just went 5 yards to the left in the other guys hands, :(

:lol I have tried to jump the walls countless times...... I always get stopped.... even if I am going over the wall.... (or would easily clear it).... I get stopped by an "invisible wall." How do you get passed them?

Oh really? how close to the ground do you have to be? I've dropped some pretty close and nothing happened.... It is weird that it would slow up that much.

Yeah...something to do with the physics and going at the right speed at the right angle. I believe that someone figured out how to do it consistently (in multiplayer).

Yeah, in the Midship multiplayer level, that's how you "get out of the level." Someone stands in a certain corner and you have another person sword cancel at you and the person with the sword will fall through the level.

Right at the beginning of the race there's 4 "moguls" and if you jump in your kart right before you hit the wall (turning as straight towards the wall as you can at the peak of the mogul) then you'll "hop" it. Sometimes you don't lose any speed and sometimes you "fall" to the other side (or just fall back on the same side), depends on how you hit it. You can actually do it consistently and it takes off about half the track, I don't remember the last time I actually did the whole race. I've done all three laps in under 3.5 minutes before. But the place where I did it in that specific story is right after the ramp. It's a flat wall and if you do manage to jump it the finish line is right there. I mushroom boosted as much as I could and jumped at just the right time, never been able to do it since.

You literally have to fly into the explosion (you don't actually have to be flying above the ground, you can dive into it head on but it will take a toll on your ship), and the more you drop at once the better. Its kind of cool to see the explosion(s) all slow-mo like that.
 
AHA! I found a redline video finally!

This is not cheating, its 100% a glitch, online on SOCOM 1 way way back. I tried this glitch a lot, and it is the most interesting glitch I have ever have seen. Mainly because 3 people joined in a certan order and this glitch activated :P
