What is the Glitchiest Video game you've ever played?

[SliverBlade]

I can't think of any particulars but most of the ones I am thinking of involve inside-out character faces, clipping issues, and constant crashing.

 

[Drakmeire]

for console games I'd say fallout 3, it didn't have anything all that bad but at one point a corpse stretched out across the map and bounced around for about 4 minutes until it exploded and every piece flew away (like into space away).
but after I downloaded "I wanna be the guy" I am thankful when it doesn't crash after i do anything (i had to refight Tyson about 27 times because it kept freezing)

There was this game out a couple years ago, I think it was called Teleport or Gateway or something... I could only ever find one gun, but there was no ammo and whenever I fired it, it turned noclip on... I was walking through walls for ages before I even found my first enemy. The AI was all screwed up too - if you stood behind them they wouldn't even know... then you could pick them up and drop them and they would get all bugged and die. I stopped playing when I got to the room with all the fire, it was just too full of glitches to play.

Red Dead Redemption

I rode a bear...best moment of my life.

HAHA! Oh wow, I can imagine.

It's not a glitch. When everybody else has to ride a horse or an automobile to work, John Marston is such a badass that he can ride a bear to work. A FUCKING BEAR!

I'm assuming the people saying Oblivion and Fallout 3 played them on the computer, because I've played both on xbox 360 and PS3 and never had any of these issues. Except for in Fallout 3 when it started raining Death Claws, but I was more interesting and entertained them angry. But I'd say Alpha Protocol or Mercenaries 2, that had some weird glitches.

I take it you didn't finish the umbra mission then.

OT: anything Bethesda ever made.

Umbra mission? not sure what that one is. Maybe I never did the parts of the game that got bugged on the xbox 360 or something. I just know I never found a bug in that game other then some minor graphics issues sometimes.

The glitchfest known as Fallout 3 GotY.

 

[PhiMed]

Morrowind, and BloodRayne. Fallout 3 for the PS3 was pretty bad, too, though.

 

[asleep at the comp]

call of duty modern warfare 2

 

[Terminate421]

Worst game Ive ever played, and glitchiest.

 

[General Recluse]

broken game os psychonauts, seriously every time I got the bull boss to a certain point in his health bar the game would freeze

also the most memerable glitchiness was in halo when My connection was bad, just kind of eerie and weird

 

[omega_peaches]

Action 52.
Do I win?

 

[Indignation837]

I'd have to go with the PS2 port of Grandia 2. There actually weren't that many bugs, and it was a decent game, but it wins my award solely based on the final boss fight where it killed all but one of my party members, and as I was trying to revive people it unleashed an ultra death laser attack that should have killed me - there was no doubt whatsoever I was in its attack range - but for some reason it completely missed. And no, I don't mean a statistical miss, I mean it didn't recognize that I was in its range even though the animation completely looked like I should've had my face melted off.

Saints Row 2: I would step on a piece of car wreckage and get knocked over. WTF!

And lets not count the retarded speed at which you could run and shit. Maybe the PC version was just a terrible port, but I found the controlls the buggiest things in the game

 

[lysiaboy]

Fallout 3's Game of the Year Edition.

It was so buggy and so bad that it would crash or freeze if more than 3 people were on screen.

Bull. Fucking. Shit.

for the PS3?

it worked alright for me though. the first five minutes after I boot up the game it sometimes freezes in vats for a minute and then the console smooths out. everyone says the pitt is the buggiest add on but it was alright for me (apart from being shit LOL)

 

[Polarix]

The glitchiest game I ever played was Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 for the PS2. This was before I had any new consoles except for a Nintendo Wii and I loved the first one so I decided to rent it. It would lag for at least 10 seconds before it loaded up each mission and I couldn't even finish the first level because of a glitch in the level programming.

Hovever the glitchiest game I have ever seen is either Mercenaries 2 for the PS2 or the mother of all glitchy games, Big Rigs: Over the Road Racing.
Just watching these videos in the link should be proof enough.

[Misterian]

Oblivion

I needed 3 user-made mods to get the game to run on its supported settings which were higher than the recommended settings. Seriously, when I need mods to get the game to actually someone didn't do their job right.

I concur, that bloody game keeps crashing whenever I finished the Crevilus Vile quest.

 

[Midnight Crossroads]

KoToR and Empire: Total War

GOTHIC 3!


Even the game's makers admit to this fact on their own site. The game regularly breaks itself, and most of the time you need to do some serious hacking and some serious cheating to get anywhere. I invested 30 hours into that game and barely made a ***** in it, and I encountered at least 7 or more game breakers that I can remember that I had to manually rectify.

A shameful shitpile considering the previous two games (especially 2) were so bloody fantastic.

In oneupsmanship I might have you there. I tried to run it on my rig when it came out (which ran Crysis more or less comfortably), I tried it on my gaming laptop, (which runs Crysis on medium to high happily) and I tried it on my new horrifically overpowered desktop (that hits 60 FPS on Crysis on maximum and stays there). I couldn't get it above 15 FPS... EVER.

On a psychotic lark I picked up a digital copy off of Steam, and it runs fine on ALL of those systems. So something on the disk horribly f'ed up on my systems.
