Ever found a purely awesome glitch by accident?

...So I'm zipping around as a speedy car, shotgunning the hell out of everything. I was playing Oblivion, messing around with pointless spells like a good senile wizard when I created 'Paralyze on Self for 45 seconds.' I jumped off of my tower, cast it, and melted. Melted! Into a flowing stream of elf! I nearly reached the foot of the mountain, but then the spell wore off and I snapped back together where what must have been my feet were.
It was awesome, but I haven't been able to replicate it lately. I did it maybe ten times before, though. Odd that it doesn't work.

I once went into the sewers of STilwater in Saints Row 2...in other words I was skydiving into the endless background
I have a knack for this kind of thing so Ill list some of my favorites:
Red Dead Redemption - Getting flung up into the sky and failing an otherwise unfailable mission when I dove for cover. The game said I abandoned irish when it wouldnt have been possible if not for that bug. This bug happened in a few other places as well but that was my favorite
Darksiders - I dashed to get my sword back from the council at the very beginning and fell through the stairs into nothingness
Transformers WFC - I managed to get stuck under the foot of the boss for the decepticons
Borderlands - I somehow ended up beating the game while still having a mandatory story quest in my list that I had already completed
theres probably a few others but i cant remember them at the moment

I managed to make Nomad hold a flare above his head while also holding a SCAR with two hands at his chest in Crysis. That was fun, but it went away when I reloaded.
That happens to the guards in Assassin's Creed (1 & 2) all the time. I think it must be a glitch with the Havok engine.RamboStrategy said:
In the prison in inFamous I accidentally went through a wall, sending me to the other half of the prison. I had friends over, and we all put our "WTF" faces on.
Sadly I've never come across anything nearly that awesome, usually the glitches I come across are the "Fuck you and your 3 hours of unsaved progress, I'm shutting down and making you fight those 2 hyper boss level monsters and gain those 5 levels AGAIN," variety.
I'm reminded of that one video from GTA: San Andreas where a guy is riding a ATV up a wooded catwalk type thing towards the top of a mountain. After jumping off said mountain he is IMMIEDIATLY slammed into by a plane.
If someone could find that video... I'd be happy.
Another intresting one was finding what I called a Jackalope in RDR which was really just a buck shrunk down to rabbit size.
They run basicly the same and I was amused to spot it. I didn't kill it however because after I learned the buffalo don't come back I'm kinda hesitant to kill any animals in the wild anymore.

Ok this is going waaaaay back but i used to own a DOS port of the original Ninja Turtles game (the nes one). Anyway the area just outside the room you fight bebop in has three flying bugs and if you jumped at just the right time they would scroll with you to the next screen, passing through a wall as they did and end up in the boss room, for some reason with them in there bebop wouldn't appeare and you could just jump up to the door and skip him.
another glitch in the turtles game involved a part on the outside area of level one. theres a narrow bridge with a manhole that you have to go into to advance but theres also a steam roller enemy that passes back and forth along the bridge. If you timed it just right you could hit the steam roller and while he was flashing walk right through him and over the manhole skipping it.
I tried repeating these glitches on the actual NES version of the game and neither of them work. just the DOS version.

In Timeplitters 2. There were multiple places you could leave the map, then spray bullets into the map, killing everthing, and them not being able to find you.
And another one in it, I was just going around normally, when I teleported outside the map. I wondered what was with that, thought it was just a small glitch, next time I checked my stats, my top speed was something like 1667273928390 km per hour...

The shredder! That's what my friend and I called the glitch we found on Raw is War for Sega Genesis. Waaaaaay back in the day, I went out of the ring and grappled with an opponent. My friend hit the guy I was grappling in the back of the head with a bucket, and it caused the grappled man to suddenly appear in the ring, but still int he grapple. I'd suplex him and it looked like he simply did a front flip, or he was wrestling an invisible man.
I remember that glitch!sketch_zeppelin said:
In Bad Company 2, I found out you can jump into those crashed helicopter scenery pieces. However, it's very hard to get back out. You're invincible inside. One time, I found the perfect spot to peak out from. I'd shoot enemies in the back, then if any that didn't die turned around, I'd crouch and be invincible. I know it's terribly cheap. I don't use this glitch much except for the funny. I usually can't get back out, and you can't shoot out of the chopper corpse either, so I end up blowing myself up with a grenade.
Ahh... Pretty much WoW's inn glitches.
Basically, you keep hopping at the wall of an inn, and sometimes you'll get stuck in an invisible platform. Then you keep jumping till you hit the roof, and you have a roof party.
It's fun, especially in Goldshire.
However, a not so fun glitch, is the Red Dead Redemption "Orbital Launch" glitch. I was gunning down some people to try and save a sheriff or some shit, and out of fucking nowhere, I get launched into the freaking air, and fall to my death.

On timesplitters me and my mates found a place where you could fall off a ledge and go through the wall below into nothingness. You could fire out but people couldn't fire in, was fucking ace on virus. Especially if one of you got caught and knew how to get in their.
My friend and I were playing The Red Star for the PS2 and we were making our way through the game normally.. until about halfway through we noticed the game was getting really easy. Now, Red Star is sort of a weird mash up of beat 'em up and bullet hell shooter, and it's not an easy game. My friend and I started paying closer attention to what we were doing and noticed we were invincible, we just hadn't noticed it because we were playing as normal by trying to dodge attacks and not get killed. The level we were on ended and the next started, and we were still invincible. We decided to go through the rest of the game and at the end unlocked the usual game unlock features (it was at his place and he'd never finished it before). We still have no idea if it was some sort of glitch or just a cheat code we had somehow stumbled across (I've searched the web and never found anything about it being a code). We did, however, know it was awesome.
I was playing Mass Effect 1, the part where you're fight the Asari matriark. I was hit with a warp (or something like that) power, which knock me over right before a cut scene showing reinforcements running through a door way. when I regained control, Shepard was falling in slow motion to the ground, however his head was moving faster than his body, so he was decapatated.
