I'm making my way through the DLC of Desperados III, a game I really enjoy. But it turns out that the final mission has a bug where if you do a certain thing along the way, you'll be unable to save during the last part of the mission. The game just freezes on that screen where it tells you that it's saving. This is a game that is reliant on quicksaving and loading, to the point where by default an on-screen prompt lets you know when it's been more than 1 minute since your last save. My first time through a mission tends to be reliant on dozens of saves (and dozens more loads).

This is of course very frustrating, but seeing that there's not much left in the mission, I'm trying to power through, to pull off the perfect run and take out the last 10 minutes or so without the ability to save. (I can still load, from just before the cutscene where the map changes). It's definitely doable, but so far has been just out of my grasp. The experience as a whole has wound up being kinda fun, committing myself to pulling it off instead of restarting the mission (which took me more than two hours to get to this point.)

Have you ever had an experience like this, where an error resulted in a more enjoyable time?

The L4D glitches before they were patched. Hitting the mini gun a bunch of times and then jumping on top of it, sending your character flying off in a direction and not knowing if theyll live or not was fun as hell.

If it counts, sequence breaking in Metroid Prime was too much fun.

Yea it was. Getting the high jump boots first made them significantly easier.

Glitches in CoD4 were fun.

The giant space program bug in Skyrim was probably my favorite bug in gaming.

My Pokemon Silver game glitched with an infinite mystery item that I could sell in the shop so I maxed out the wallet.

Bought loads of coins in the Game Corner and learned all the good TMs to my team.

Felt great with everyone having Fire Blast, Blizzard etc.
