The most iconic buggy games in history 5y4q24

The history of bugs in games electronics goes far beyond recent titles such as Cyberpunk 2077 and others whose fixes come to help work around the problem.

Here we have selected a series with the bugs in the games that had the most relevance in the world and, became characteristic in their titles. Get ready to review some buggy games known and also to discover some very curious pearls.

Parting the Sea in Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag (2013) 6s4g6b

We started with a doubly listed franchise here. In Assassin's Creed IV: Black Fag, if the player anchors his jackdaw boat in some port, a stranger may appear hole in the middle of the ocean. In the background, there is also the possibility of hearing the crew screaming in despair, as if they were in trouble. The action doesn't last long, but everything happens in a very crazy and unexplained way!

Invisible Face in Assassin's Creed: Unity (2014) 1ze44

With technical problems since its launch, Assassin's Creed: Unity presents one of the bugs weirdest you can see. At times, the modeling of the characters face disappears, leaving only the eyes, hair and teeth floating above the neck. It's enough to scare anyone!

Slugman in Battlefield 3 (2011) 722cc

By a graphical glitch that happens when using the drag movement in the game Battlefield 3, we can see the character — from another player, in a party — stretch the neck and take on a bizarre resemblance to a slug. ghastly!

Jumping Faces in Call of Duty: Ghosts (2013) 2x2t67

Um bugs, to say the least, weird and also funny, with the look of the characters appearing in Call of Duty: Ghosts. In it, by equipping your character with a Rocket Launcher (rocket launcher) and a Escudo — this one as a secondary weapon — you'll be ready to see the bugs happen. 

It is enough now to bend down and make the movement of aiming constantly so that the your teammates' faces start to stretch upwards, in a kind of superior melt. A very curious failure!

Whirling Guards in GoldenEye 007 (1997) 2p37

Um bugs, activated by lightly removing the cartridge from the console while playing, sent enemies rolling out of the air… Yes! You didn't read it wrong, and this error happened in the game for Nintendo 64, golden eye 007. To make the magic happen, the player should, when sneaking past the guards, make a slight retreat from the game on the left side. 

The effect caused was out of control, something like the guards were being pulled by a tornado, made news in the year 2000 and won the world by becoming a meme for songs J-Pop to the title GET-DAN (referencing 'Get Down').

Super balance in GTA IV (2008) 3h5920

When arriving with the car close to any swing in Grand Theft Auto IV, you're in for a pleasant (or scary) surprise. is that your car will be catapulted far away, like an explosion. What buggy game, huh!

The Little Player in Madden NFL 15 (2014) 2o705e

Other bugs crazy that we bring in our list includes the american football game Madden NFL 15. In it, it is possible to transform the player of the Cleveland Browns, Christian Kirksey, on a tiny character, leaving everything on a very different experience level. 

Even so, the player can perform all the standard moves that are common in the game, but in small mode. The craze caught on and even Christian himself started to challenge other players to disputes with his smaller version. 

Face Scan Failed in NBA 2K15 (2014) 1k14a

The in-game face scan tool NBA 2K15, carried out through the PS4 or Xbox One camera, is a nice feature and allows you to bring a character to the console by carrying your custom face. However, we have to mention that the result is a nightmare!

Perhaps, because the technology used at the time was not the best, or, depending on the lighting used when recording the moment, some pretty monstrous figures based on the face collected. They can even end up becoming a joke or a joke among friends. Therefore, think carefully when using it or revealing its existence.

Level 256 in Pac-Man (1980) 416f37

In the early days of the video game era, we didn't have many attractions for those who finished a game, such as closing videos or a beautiful artwork on the final thank you screen. In Pac-Man, if the player reached the stage number 256 — considered an extremely insane feat, given the time and difficulty of reaching it — he was in for a nice surprise.

This phase seems to have been half-developed, perhaps because the developers didn't believe that anyone could reach such a level, or even perhaps because they reached the limit of the machine. However, the fact is that it is impossible to beat and has half of the screen composed of numbers and letters that appear to be part of the game's source code.

The phase is known as “split-screen level" or "kill screen” and, as in Donkey Kong (1981) — whose phase 117 took an impossible four seconds to complete — was characterized by representing a type of screen of Game Over.

Legends speak of a mysterious pokemon, which seems to inhabit the depths pixelated… Theories and speculations aside, the Pokémon MissingNo it is one of bugs most famous of all, both for the popularity of the franchise and its games, Pokémon Red & Blue, as for the hyping caused by being announced in the famous magazine Nintendo Power on May 1999.

Through a sequence of actions, the Pokémon pixelated — notably a game error — appears. If the player defeats him, the sixth item from your list is multiplied by 128 (unless it is already in that amount), allowing the acquisition of a large amount of items, even those considered rare in the game. If you decide to capture the Pokemon MissiNo, the risk is already higher, and the game can change graphics or even have its own corrupted save data.

Despite the risk of this bugs, several players decided to test it at the time and several theories were created from there. THE Nintendo, however, recognized the Pokemon MissiNo as a programming quirk rather than a bugs or error.

Strange Mount in Resident Evil 4 (2005) 515344

Resident Evil 4 it was an innovative game that held some good surprises. One of them, unintentionally, was the bugs what happened when Leon Kennedy was about to run away using a Jet ski to save the president's daughter, Ashley Graham. At this point, there may be a bugs completely strange in which Leon stands in a bizarre pose and skis alone in the water, leaving Ashley and even the Jet ski back.

Surreal physics in Skate 3 (2010) 3a2f2j

Skate 3 is a game that defies the laws of physics with its many bug, some quite hilarious. Get stuck in corners, float in space, enter the ground, climb or roll off structures madly, and many more!

Minus World in Super Mario Bros. (1983) e2d5z

O World -1 ou Minus World/Negative World — as it is popularly known — is a flaw that exists in the game Super Mario Bros. and that added a “new” phase to the game, so to speak. To reach it, the player must perform a special maneuver which involves ducking and jumping over the pipe from the main exit to get through the bricks so you can enter the first pipe. 

considered a copy of World 7-2, Minus World stood out for being a phase that worked in loop infinite and that could not be completed. In this way, he left the player active in the phase, but with no prospect of finishing it, until he ended up losing. O error, which fell into popular taste, became a phenomenon, but ended up not being considered a bugs from Nintendo, but a resource, for not crashing the game itself. a nice play marketing!

Endless watermelons in The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion (2006) j6t2p

One glitches in games that most caught the public's attention was what appeared in the game of Bethesda, The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. In it, there is a bug that allows you to duplicate items. It didn't take long for a to decide to test the possibility with watermelons and it came to this: one of the bugs most iconic in history!

Lots of pots in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time (1998) 6r6b5w

The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time It is one of the games that have the most bugs interesting in history. The fact is that we could do an article just telling about these glitches of the game, such is the amount that the game has. However, one of the errors that most calls attention is the one that gives the possibility of turn any inventory item into a pot.

It works like this, when using a pot to capture an insect or a fairy, the player must pause the game at the exact moment the pot is launched and exchange the item (the pot) being used for any other. Ready! O replaced item will turn into a pot. O bugs can be used both for add pots and fairies in game, as also for make it unusable, since essential items to advance in the game can also be replaced by simple pots.
