Share your favourite video game glitches!

Post by Moeboid »

Topic says it all. YouTube videos welcome! Not posting any now, but I might once my internet resets.

For now I just wanted to mention how much I appreciated the MissingNo and Mew/Ditto glitches in Pokemon Red and Blue. With these glitches I was able to catch all Pokemon without trading, and with a single save file, as well as teach them any move that they could possibly learn :). Without these glitches, I think I would've stopped playing once I had beaten the Elite Four. With them, I continued on until I had all 151 Pokemon trained up to at least level 50 and with a decent moveset. Doing that without glitches is either ridiculously time consuming or, if you can't trade, impossible. Thank you Game Freak/Nintendo for unintentionally catering for us non-traders :D.

Ok, one YouTube vid to get things started: 10,000 Watermelons in Oblivion!

My favorite and prolly most used glitch was from Gears of War 1. The Kung-fu flip. I was also the founder of the left handed chainsaw.

Perhaps a worthy candidate would be the curious zombies in L4D/L4D2 who poke their heads through walls and whatnot.

I really enjoy glitches that enables you to go where you're not supposed to. Like jumping the flagpole in Super Mario Bros, getting to Liberty City in San Andreas and the Death Mountain Descent-glitch in Zelda: A Link to the Past.

My favorite glitch is on the Xbox version of Oblivion. Go into the garden of the wizard's tower, save, exit, delete the tower dlc and then reload. You end up in a place where you can get unlimited sigil stones and a really cool weapon.

I usually have bad luck with glitches and bugs :P

but one glitch i always enjoyed was the ''flying protectron'' glitch on Fallout 3. i used to think it was part of the game, and not actually a glitch, and i would run after the protectrons and try and find the body.

In Fallout New Vegas, the very beginning. It was just frightening.

Nice one, Mars.

Here's a few more:
Laddergoat. Everyone knows this one. The guy's reaction is funnier than the glitch, but the glitch itself is still funny:

The glitch in Skyrim which enables the player to take part in Skyrim's space program with some assistance from a helpful Giant.
