glitches can be all fun and games until
they break your game and that’s no fun
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’ll
be counting down our picks for the top
10 game breaking glitches for this list
we’re looking at the worst instances of
glitches that crash or otherwise render
a save file on your game its system or
the accessories unplayable and broken
number 10 ice cream factory save grand
theft auto vice city ps2 version ice
cream is a front we distribute other
non-dairy products by city is undeniably
a masterpiece unfortunately it was not
without its problems on the original ps2
release some players reported a
corrupted save file after saving their
game at the ice cream factory upon
loading the game would present players
with the usual load successful screen
but just when you were ready to cause
some mayhem the screen goes black
as you can imagine this infuriated
players to no end as countless hours of
progress would be lost and you were
forced to start from scratch
due to the files failure to load
hopefully you had an extra save because
if you didn’t you are s Oh Alan and you
might just go full tommy vercetti psycho
on your ps2 number nine empty memory
card Soul Calibur three telecine include
o vs Collin fight it really sucks when
once a file becomes corrupted it’s
something else entirely when your entire
memory card is wiped out that’s what
some poor unfortunate souls discovered
in 2005 when playing the fighting game
Soul Calibur 3 if you move deleted or
did basically anything to a memory card
with a soul calibur save file on it it
could result in the entire games file
becoming corrupted at its worst
the glitch would wipe out the entire
contents of your memory card although
this was admittedly rather rare number
eight broken bridge The Legend of Zelda
Twilight Princess
Nintendo back in the day had some
thorough Quality Assurance but there
were always a few bugs that flipped
through the cracks as with any title for
the bug concerning the Eldon bridge
though it was pretty bad
if you save and quit after destroying
the rocks blocking your path to the Meru
bridge you will find the bridge
destroyed and impassable upon loading
the game due to the bridge being you
know kind of split in half players
couldn’t cross it effectively stranding
them and forcing them to start all over
again
there’s also another gamebreaking glitch
that happens in a room with a cannon
where players can’t leave if they save
in their two game breakers in one game
youch number 7 game slows drown slowly
the elderscrolls v skyrim ps3 version
Skyrim is a massive and intricately
detailed game so it’s going to take a
crap ton of space on your hard drive
unfortunately many gamers playing on the
ps3 began to experience severe crippling
performance issues after only saving
five megabytes of data or about 15 hours
of play time they’ve been encountering
not all but some been encountering
severe amounts of chopping their game in
terms of the frame rate so it’s dropping
down to two or three frames seemingly
per second the game becomes extremely
laggy which makes for a frustrating and
pretty much unplayable experience alone
but many players also reported poor
rendering the inability to trade and
prevention from completing quests for a
game that can be played and should be
played for hundreds of hours
experiencing these issues after only 10
to 15 is simply unacceptable still
awesome game though providing you’re
playing on a working system
number six stupid door won’t open
Metroid Other M Metroid fans are no
strangers to the old preventing your
progress glitches either in this game it
comes in the form of a pyrosphere door
or sector three glitch if the player
back tracks to a previous room after
defeating the desk IGAs a major door in
the desert refinery will shut
effectively stranding the players in a
locked room unable to continue due to
there being no possible way to open the
locked door once this happened there was
no going back and players were forced to
scrap their progress and start again
this glitch became so infamous that
Nintendo directly addressed the issue
and fixed numerous SD cards that had to
be mailed in since the Wii wasn’t
capable of downloading patches
number-5 game-breaking barrel Donkey
Kong Country – Diddy’s conquest back in
the 90s the infamous castle crush glitch
was known as one of the most fatal and
damming glitches in all of videogames in
the level titled castle crush this
glitch requires players to pick up the
first barrel drop it and then quickly
pick it back up again after moving the
invisible barrel it was common for Diddy
to turn into different characters
including a multicolored massive pixels
that represented Club a– upon trying to
move the game would pixelate and
instantly crash many players reported a
corrupted save file as a result and for
some gamers the game never worked again
we’re still he could even damage your
SNES number for message attack Tony
Hawk’s Underground 2 for some reason it
would completely freeze the console of
the player who received the message this
glitch is nothing but a trolls fantasy
and a harmless player’s worth nightmare
players who plugged in a USB keyboard
into their ps2 could bypass the
character limit of the online text chat
if a particularly malicious player broke
the limit and sent a message with extra
brackets it would instantly freeze the
receding players console forcing them to
lose progress and restart
what’s worse is that whoever received
the message didn’t even have to open
that message in order to be affected
this eventually became such a major
problem that the games online community
was severely crippled as everyone feared
the famed message attack and we really
don’t know what’s worse the spamming or
the cutscenes so if everyone’s done with
the program I say it’s choosing time
number three accidentally break your
computer Eve online Trinity this
expansion to the core game EVE Online
significantly overhauled the game’s
graphics engine and added some new
features one of those new features was
the inability to start up your computer
some Windows XP users who upgraded from
the original version had their boot ini
files deleted a file which is paramount
to starting up your PC or booting it
many gamers were left with computers
that would not properly start CCP were
left scrambling to find a quick solution
and were forced to apologise to hundreds
of gamers while they did eventually send
instructions on how to fix the affected
computers many players were left reeling
and extremely upset at the whole
calamity

number two the uninstall bug myth 2 sole
blighter before Bungie changed the
gaming landscape with the likes of Halo
they were wiping out entire hard drives
with the click of a mouse while myth 2
was certainly a great game
it came with a particularly nasty flood
like bug if a player installed the game
in a location other than the default
directory and then decided to uninstall
it their entire hard drive would be
wiped clean as the game like an action
hero on their last stand took everything
down with it I got him
[Music]
[Music]
damn I missed him although this problem
was not widespread it understandably
pissed off a percentage of the game’s
user base forcing Bungie to replace the
games at a significant financial loss we
think a big oops is in order here
number one reformatting your memory card
the PlayStation underground 2004 holiday
demo disk
back in 2004 demo discs were still a
thing and this disc was sent to all the
current subscribers of the popular
PlayStation underground magazine
unfortunately playing the beautiful Joe
2 demo on the disc would also delete all
of the saved data on any memory card
currently sitting inside your ps2
console everything on your memory card
years of memories of your favorite
titles gone in an instant
fans were understandably outraged and
took to Sony to vent their frustrations
Sony basically just shrugged their
shoulders and said ah jeez sorry about
that and players were left heartbroken
because all their progress had gone to
waste
happy holidays you now have access to
all the inside information a game like a
dream oh you’re underground now there’s
no going back so do you agree with our
list have you encountered any game
breaking bugs of your own
