“SHAAAAAAAUN” – Heavy Rain
Quantic Dream’s Heavy Rain touches on lots of truths about parenthood. It explores the connection between father Ethan Mars and his son Shaun as they flee from a psychopathic serial killer. Sadly, one of many key plot-points might be ruined by a ridiculous glitch.
At one level, a immediate seems, telling the participant to press ‘X’ to have Ethan name out to Shaun. Generally, this immediate by no means goes away, and Ethan can proceed to yell loudly for Shaun for an excellent portion of the sport.
Ethan saves Shaun from drowning and sarcastically shouts “Shaun!” as he comforts him. Then, Ethan’s ex-wife approaches him and tells him who the serial killer is, and Ethan screams again “Shaun!” Because the serial killer shoots Ethan within the abdomen, Ethan continues to shout “Shaaaaaaaaun!” whereas he’s mendacity on the bottom. It’s unintentional comedy gold.
The Darkish, Empty Void of Face – Murderer’s Creed Unity
When protagonist Arno’s face doesn’t load correctly into Murderer’s Creed Unity, an already sinister cutscene turns into infinitely creepier. Stare into that void of that face because the protruding eyes and chattering tooth gaze upon his homicide sufferer. Yikes…

Truth: Skyrim is a really buggy, however very enjoyable sport. Bethesda’s notoriety for glitches and bugs can result in disasters (ahem, Fallout 76), however in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim’s case, the glitches are a near-infinite effectively of comedy gold. An ideal instance of that is maybe the only and commonest bug: The large catapult.
In case you’ve encountered an enormous someplace in Skyrim’s huge expanse, you’ll shortly discover that they aren’t all too pleasant. The truth is, if you happen to get too near an enormous, it should launch you into the stratosphere with a velocity solely NASA’s greatest engineers may match.
Is that this a bug, or is it intentional? Frankly, it’s arduous to inform with Bethesda. It certain is dang humorous, regardless.
The Swingset Cannon – Grant Theft Auto IV
Rockstar Video games have their justifiable share of glitches, however none extra notorious than the swingset launcher from Grand Theft Auto IV.
It’s a easy glitch to tug off: press a automobile in opposition to any one of many swingsets round Liberty Metropolis (the most effective one is on the Firefly Tasks Park), and there’s an excellent probability that you just’ll be launched a number of hundred yards away.
Generally, player-character Niko will fly out of the automobile mid-flight, crashing catastrophically right into a brick wall earlier than the automobile explodes.

Nuclear Gandhi – Civilization

To mirror Gandhi’s peaceable marketing campaign, his character in Civilization was set at a risk stage of 1, which might (in principle) make him a non-threat. However is the participant chooses “democracy” as the federal government sort originally of the sport, it reduces different nations risk stage by 2, inflicting Gandhi’s risk stage to loop from the minimal stage (1) to the utmost stage (255).
Due to this unusual bug, Gandhi is sarcastically probably the most violent, nuclear threats within the authentic Civilization. As bizarre because it was, folks thought it was hilarious, so the builders have continued to maintain Gandhi’s risk stage ferociously excessive in each Civilization sequel.
The Feline Fountain – Minecraft
In a sport with the liberty and expansiveness of Minecraft, you need to count on to see some bugs each on occasion. Again in 2012, a genius found that by manipulating a cat’s capability to teleport to the participant, you’ll be able to create an infinite fountain of cats.
Now, relying on how you are feeling about cats, this could possibly be both a supply of unbridled pleasure and peace or hell itself. Both manner, it’s a reasonably nice glitch, though it’s been patched within the years since this video was uploaded.

One other Rockstar sport! Horses and wagons are pivotal to John Marston’s transportation within the authentic Pink Useless Redemption. However what occurs when these issues fail him? This glitch!
It’s possible you’ll run into this bug the place all the wagons in a single space will begin bouncing round, quivering, shaking, and total appearing a bit out place. One wagon even sends its accompanying horse on prime of a powerline. Perhaps Pink Useless’s aliens had one thing to do with this?
Mind Harm – Fallout: New Vegas
New Vegas’s resident surgeon Doc Mitchell is already creepy sufficient in his personal proper, however when his head begins spinning in place, it’s pure nightmare materials.
What’s ironic about this glitch is how he’s lecturing the participant about mind harm whereas his mind is clearly indifferent from his physique.

To tug this one off, you drive the tank throughout a bridge, firing backward the entire time, till you attain the bridge’s apex and soar! It’s an excellent spectacle, and a few would possibly say that’s simpler to manage than the precise aircraft.
Giraffe Man – Battlefield 3 Beta
Method again in 2011, Battlefield 3 kicked off with an early-access beta to check the web connectivity and work out the kinks. Thank god, as a result of there was a giant kink on this beta: giraffe man.
In case you entered a crawling place military crawl place throughout this beta, your participant character would find yourself in horrifying place. Prolonged neck, outstretched arm, gun in leg – you could not prefer it, however that is what peak efficiency seems to be like.
Thumbs up! – WWE Smackdown

<span data-mce-type=”bookmark” model=”show: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;” class=”mce_SELRES_start”></span>

Amongst a lot of different considerations, this glitch prompted EA to cancel NBA Elite 11’s full console launch. Too unhealthy, we may all do with a bit extra ‘Jesus Bynum’ in our lives.
MMA mishaps – UFC
On the whole, UFC is often immune to bugs and glitches. However each sport has its awkward moments, and this video completely encapsulates a couple of UFC moments with the added hilarity of pretend announcers within the background.
Simply take a look at the grace within the ‘merry-go-round’, or the bravery of the man who fights the “ghost who’s been haunting the sector”. There’s additionally the “seventy-foot-sliding take-down” that leads right into a “butt-back mount”. If the true UFC had been this hectic, we’d in all probability watch it extra usually!
Land Sharks – Crysis
Certain, sharks could also be scary and all, however you recognize what would make them additional terrifying? If they may leap out of the water and swim… on land. *shivers*
Certainly, to this participant’s chagrin, this nice white has forgone years of evolution and deserted the security of the ocean in favor of the sandy shores of us landlubbers. It’s not the shark’s wisest concept, although, because it seems to be prefer it’s about to get a faceful of scorching lead. I assume sharks aren’t particularly well-known for his or her smarts, proper?
