Poll of the Day > Favorite single player game breaking bug

(+) Yeah! (+)

What is your's?

Mine is the walking on the race track bug from Ratchet and Clank for the PS2.
It's the only practical way to get the R.Y.N.O. on the first playthough.

---

Probably the infinite item glitch from Pokemon Red and Blue.
---

Maybe recruitable ghosts in Heroes of Might and Magic II.
---

Getting Mew in Red/Blue using the Abra-Teleport glitch on the trainer left of Nugget Bridge.
---

The sketch bug in Final Fantasy III / VI

The double jump in Spyro 2.

You could go out of bounds in every level.
---

Morrowind's spell crafting system.
---

theres some cool out of bounds areas I used to take my friends to in halo 3 all the time.

---

It's not game breaking, but I always thought this one was hilarious.

Fallout New Vegas: you could keep swapping caps for casino money and back without losing caps. So I'd give them 3000 caps for 3000 casino cash and then sell the casino money, I still had my original 3000 caps, plus the casino money and what I just made off from in sales.

Didn't take long before you could just buy EVERYTHING and never go broke. They patched it, but it still worked if you weren't connected to XBOX Live

In Final Fantasy Legend II for the Game Boy, if you had a robot in your party, you could just unequip and re-equip a piece of his armor and it would restore his HP. You could create an entire robot party and you'd never have to use a Cure or pay money to stay at an Inn.

Every piece of armor of a particular series offered the same protection, and you could equip multiples of the same type, so you could save money buying just gauntlets and skipping the helms and breastplates.

And since weapons equipped by robots were rechargeable at Inns (for free if your HP was full up), you could outfit yourself with an array of top tier weapons right off the bat and be totally OP until near the very end. (The final boss battle was extremely hard since you had no healing capabilities)

Save scumming the Off Track Betting in GTA:SA for what amounted to infinite money.

In Final Fantasy Legend I for the Game Boy, the Saw was supposed to compare the character's strength against the enemy's defense, and if your strength was higher, it was an instant KO. But they got the check backwards, you only got a KO if the enemy's defense was higher. Which meant for most of the game the Saw was totally useless, it wouldn't work on anything.

But the final boss in the game, the Creator, had an extremely high defense and unless you'd leveled up to an insane degree, it was almost certainly going to be higher than your strength. Which meant using the Saw was an instant KO against what should have been the toughest enemy in the game!

I did save scumming with the slots or something at the casino. Just bet the max you can. Win. Save. Repeat. If you dont win. Reload.

That's also good, but the races can be done at the beginning of the game.

This infinite lasting stat boosts spells plus other shenanigans.

Duping in Diablo.

Probably the pause + Elec Beam glitch in Mega Man. I'm pretty sure I wouldn't have been able to beat the Rock Monster or Dr. Wily without it.

In dragon ball z legacy of goku 1, flying used a consumable resource and it sucked ass, but if you flew into an enemy's ki blast you would gain invincibility untill you tried to fly again
only way I could beat that shit game lol

This along with the potion crafting exploit

I was always partial to world -1 in super mario bros.

Totally worthless, but kind of surreal.

The backwards long jump from Mario 64 is pretty rad.
