If you’re a fan of The Witcher, you know Roach, Geralt’s trusty steed (or steeds, as he names all of his horses “Roach”). As I’m knee-deep in The Witcher 3 now, I’ve come to know its version of Roach quite well. Or, well enough to feel like my bad luck with mounts in games (unless…

What’s the glitchiest game you’ve ever played?
Until recently, my answer to this question would have been Saints Row 2. I played the PC port of the game on Steam, and it contained its share of problematic glitches. In fact, more than once I found the game to be completely unplayable. Worst was when the screen would randomly blackout in the middle…
Glitches That Involve Freezing and the Rage They Cause
Today’s post is the last of my little glitch series, until I experience enough new ones to write another post about them. Won’t that be nice? Ahem, this time I discuss freezing, quite possibly the worst glitch ever. You can’t work through it. It just happens, and there’s nothing you can do. Nothing. Games never…
Glitches Involving Wackiness
Today’s post focuses on my favorite kind of glitches, the silly ones. These ones fill me with mirth and make game errors not so terrible. Enjoy these hilarious (and mildly amusing) glitches. That’s an order. Unintended mutants: “Tak 2: The Staff of Dreams”, I found, enjoys a good freeze now and then on my somewhat…
Glitches Involving a Disappearing Act, With no Magicians Responsible

Sometimes, the world falls apart around you: This happens in “Spyro” games I played on the Cube. For me, it was quite common in “Spyro: Enter the Dragonfly” for the ground to disappear in the second world, the…
Glitches Involving Injustice
Today the Duck is continuing my little glitch series with a description of glitches involving injustice in this already unfair world. These glitches involve the unfair deaths and restarts that can sometimes be as amusing as they are frustrating. Sometimes, your characters end up in another dimension (at least, they might as well be): In…
Glitches Involving Capricious Audio
A little while ago, Cary wrote a post about some glitches in a damaged copy of “The Last of Us” that ruined the game for her, which got me thinking about how much fun I have talking about glitches, no matter how bothersome they can be. Because not all glitches are purely upsetting. Some can…
When Glitches Just Ruin It
The Last of Us is considered one of the “must play” games of 2013. It’s received praise upon praise for its story, mechanics, and style. Despite all the great reviews and such, we decided to rent it first. (Hey, there’s a lot of great games to spend a hard-earned $60 on these days!) When it…
