Stuck in wall bug is nothing compared to "sudden punishment in hell" -bug (gta vice city and san andreas) where you walk happily at the street and all the sudden the earth engulfs you and you fall into eternal fall of abyss.

Another funny bug was with legendary driving game Driver. Especially in pursuit mode (lot's of cops) when you drive your car in specific angle to corner or wall and another car hits you, your car might take a sudden jump to sky, lasting sometimes over 20 secons, leaving black trail at the sky. This was hilarious way to try to reach areas like building roofs and other inaccessable areas.

1. My version of GP4 developed the following glitch, whereby as a player car was slowing down to enter the pits in Malaysia, any CPU cars entering the pits behind, would slam on the brakes and swerve off the pitlane, usually causing their car to hop over the gravel and lose some bodywork on landing. And of course after it happened the first time, there was debris in the pit lane enterance, and all cars pitting in that part of the race did the same thing.

2. Carmageddon (PC) had a glitch whereby if you hit a wall hard enough, your car would disappear into the abyss and be crushed, with all parts of the car taking maximum damage.

3. Tachyon the Fringe. The most recent version still had a glitch on the mission to destroy Cassitor's Station, that caused the ship you were escorting to attack his landing pads (which can't be destroyed) instead of landing at them. Or the ship simply disappeared and the mission registered as complete.

Just remembered Arx Fatalis last boss. A half created evil god. spawns a demon, powerfull mage etc...
Anyway been loading and saving and throwing magic at him, used all the arrows for demon and offcourse used the specially designed mithril sabre which is supposed to kill it. but everytime he survived my attacks and even seemed to be regenerating the health. when i was about to quit i found out (on the forums) that the stairs "do magic". so what you do is stand on small set of stairs, he comes to you but can't get to you. when he uses magic it is too high (basically shoots over the head) and he doesn't have enough regeneration mana/spells available. either way it is quite easy to smash him with that special sabre untill he dies.

who would think that master of all evil, ok his half reincarnation, would be stopped by a sabre of mithiril and a set of stairs. yup. taking over the world can be tough if you can't walk 3 steps down the stairs.

Well the game is really tough, mine is a non-original, bought in a black market (long ago...). I was determined to play it all through - the german campaign was the toughest and the russian one is second to it I think. I only completed the allies missions, but got nearly to the end with G and R. I didn't even know there was a glitch like that.

I've seen loads but the one in my head right now is the GTA San Andreas parachute glitch. You jump from a plane/helicopter and open your parachute, and the cords come out with no parachute on the end. You continue to drop like a rock, unable to do anything but wait to hit the ground, whereupon you wake up outside the hospital, twitching on the floor, at which moment you die AGAIN and then wake up outside the hospital ready to kill. Also I once loaded a savegame my sister managed to screw up somehow and every time it started with CJ floating facedown in a pool of black water in the middle of an empty black void.

Well I remember a friend of mine once made a map for Duke Nukem 3D where entire level was made with use of engine glitches and visual bugs and of course I had to be the first tester. That was quite weird and scary. As if accurately placed HOM bugs weren't enough he had to make areas with many different rooms that co-exist at the same place in space (but you could only see one at a time, they were separated by different tunnels), all this to twist your sense of reality. There were many other unusual engine features/bugs too. I think I still have it somewhere in my backup.

Next one was the Dyson Sphere at the end of Freelancer. Just imagine flying your little ship in vast space, cool nebulas, planets, stations and etc. You see an alien portal leading somewhere far far away, naturally you jump into it. Next thing you see is a gigantic infinitie cosmic floor and some... planets above the surface. That was shocking experience, my brain had to have a few moments to comprehend what exactly I see. It was as in my dreams when I've seen something like a "cosmic wall"... scary muck... Two hidden systems were also fun, one was like a

Another weird thing was the final system in Nexus: Jupiter Incendent. I don't have words to describe what that is.

Well, there I was:

Playing a huge game of REUNION. Everything was working perfectly.
I made all the developments in time. There weren't really threats for me.
I wanted to make up a seperate commando to wipe the evils (don't remember their name) from my solar system. So I wanted to produce a bunch of ground units and WHAT THE F*CK HAPPENED?!

The game screwed up the needed resources to 68000 something for a single unit. So I couldn't attack. That save game is stuck.

I had to start all over and it happened again.

I QUITTED PLAYING this great game since I am too annoyed of this fact.

Not technically a bug or glitch but funny and unintentional (I hope)
