Glitchiest Games (That still work)

Crysis, most common glitches I’ve encountered:

-Weapons that soldiers drop after dying get stuck in the wall and shake like crazy
-Sometimes at the start of a chapter (most commonly at the start of Recovery) Nomad holds the last weapon selected with only one hand until you fire, reload or switch weapons
-Sometimes you can die instantly if you try to walk on top of or run through large objects like shelves, lockers or metal containers,(most common in the chapter after the scientist guy gets frozen)

…and the two most famous:
-Soldier standing in the toilet in the first mission
-Soldiers driving around in vehicles with no back wheels

Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2. Nuff Said

#23

What about the glitch when picking up a frog if you throw it at an upward angle it’ll spin and fly in a straight line until it disappears from sight in the sky?

#24

I have the PS3 version of that game and I have yet to find a single noticeable bug. I tried hard to find the infamous glitches that I saw on YouTube and did not find a single one of them through my playthrough.

Then again, I did patch the game when I got it, so all those bugs and glitches may have been fixed already.

#25

Uhm, it’s PS3 exclusive.

Whats with all the votes against STALKER? Are we talking about the first one here? If we are then I am inclined to agree, but it’s much more playable and stable now after several patches then it was on release. I’ve found Clear Sky to be the worst though, I haven’t actually finished it due to restarting it so many times because of corrupt files or broken gameplay. But with Call of Pripyat they seemed to of got it mostly right, because I encountered very little bugs in my time playing it.

I don’t play many video games but I was able to get outside the map in Dear Esther. Does that count?

I was walking (why don’t they allow you to run? Grar!) around the outside of the valley and came across a wooden fence that I was able to jump over, go up a hill and out of the map. I couldn’t get back up without noclipping but I didn’t want to do that, so I made my way underneath the map until I got to the water where I popped back onto the map.

Codename: Outbreak

#29

Hm, I guess my 360 is special then.

#30

Portal, apparently.

#31

Big Rigs Over The Road Racing

#32

Big Rigs doesn’t work.

#33

I remember taking a cab in mexico only to arrive stuck in the ground of a matte white desert of nothingness. Although, a part from that quite noticeable bug I haven’t encountered any (apart from the occasional horse carriage stuck in the ground)

#34

Fallout: New Vegas.
It’s like FO3 but with more AI brainfarts, NPCs stuck in the terrain, and other fun glitches such as vendors not opening the buy dialog when you ask them to sell.
And there’s what I’ve dubbed the magnum glitches, where any weapon that reloads 1 bullet at a time will stop reloading after a single bullet, reload indefinitely, or make the mouse move you and have you unable to do anything, even opening the pip-boy, until you manage to shake it off by moving and clicking the mouse.
This even happens to the hunting shotgun.

#35

hidden and dagerous gets my vote. Good game, very buggy!

#36

Not really.

#37

Shadow the Hedgehog for Xbox. The levels didn’t load enough of the map or fast enough, so if you went too fast then you’d go over a jump and just fall because the game hadn’t loaded the floor yet. Best example: the very start of the game, you’re falling down between two skyscrapers and if you don’t stop at the bottom and let yourself go over the boost, 75% of the time the map won’t have loaded yet. At the very start of the game! Makes speedruns impossible, although I suppose that’s what Sonic is for…

#38

hahah Yes!

#39

I don’t know if this actually qualifies as a game but…
Big Rigs Over The Road Racing. I believe that is the glithiest game ever.

#40

This.
