    As the title explains: what is the best, worst, or both game glitches that you have come across through your endeavors of gaming?

    These are mine:

    Best- Spyro: Year of the Dragon
    When i went to Seashell Shore, i would go into Bluto's place to fight him in his Metallic Shark sub. I would go into the water, go to menu, then click exit stage. I would then be taken back to Seashell Shore, but i would be "swimming in the air." I then could "swim/fly" around anywhere in the sky. But once i hit the real water, the glitch would revert back.

    Worst- Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep
    When the final part of fighting Vanitas in Ven's story, the D-link final move would screw up once in a while. I would build up the gage till i can finish him off, but when i do, it wouldn't work, and things would continue the repetitive way it always does. I was so pissed, and died the first time that happened...

    Worst glitch- Ratchet and Clank 3. Jumping onto certain points of platforms in multiplayer caused the character to fall endlessly..only able to respawn once the game recognised you had frozen in the air.

    Best- Marvel Nemesis: Rise of the Imperfects. Every now and then when fighting in a match against the A.I, i'd for some reason have infinite super power for roughly 5 seconds, and no i hadn't used rage. It was awesome because for those 5 seconds, as short as they were, i could spam the A.I endlessly with web attacks as Spiderman, which is always fun :P

    Worst Glitch: Lego Star Wars. That game had glitches everywhere. One was when you go back to a level where you have to fight Darth Vader. If you fall in this hole you can't get out because you're supposed to die in it but if you go back you won't be able to.

    Best Glitch: Pokemon G/S/C if you put a pokemon in the first box in the computer then changed boxes and turned the game right when it said "Saving don't turn off the power" you would have the pokemon in your party and in the computer.

    I can't think of a bad one, but here's a good one.

    Game: Spyro: Enter the Dragonfly
    Glitch:
    Swim through Air

    If the player goes to the area where the level transporter for Luau Island is and has Spyro keep swimming in a certain spot of the net, Spyro will eventually swim through the net and swim in air! Do note, though, that it will cause parts of the Dragon Realms to "disappear".

    Best glitch: Missingno. in Pokémon Red & Blue

    Missingno. is an incredibly fun glitch to play around with. It has almost everything one could want. It affects the whole game, is incredibly wacky, gives birth to thousands of creepypasta, and can be used to make thousands of rare candies. The downside is when you accidentally run into 'M, Missingno.'s little brother. 'M saves the game automatically, and auto-rapes the Hall of Fame entries. It's a spectacularly odd glitch.

    In terms of practicality, the Mew glitch of RBY is by far the best. It allows one to actually obtain Mew in an easy, methodical way. It works 100% of the time, and can be done early-game. It helps that it was the one 'true' answer to a long, long list of fake Mew glitches.

    The best game glitch I've ever experienced was probably when I was playing the Undead Nightmare expansion for Red Dead Redemption. I rode my unicorn to the top of this snowy mountain and decided to kill it. When it died, it's body started slowly sliding down the hill, and then it started to twitch. Next thing I know, it's flying everywhere; hitting other parts of the mountain, soaring through the sky, bouncing off trees. This continued until it miraculously made it's way back to me, and then it flung across the sky one more time. Last time I ever saw that unicorn...

    Best Glitches: Modern Warefare 2 Care Package Glitch
    Basically get your 4 kill streak in a long game type like sabotage and just unload air support on the enemy, it was pretty amusing until they patched it.

    Black OPs: On the Zombie Map "Five", there was a glitch where you could get onto the table in the first room and the zombies couldn't get you. Though the other maps all had similar glitches for awhile as well.

    Worst Glitch: Modern Warefare 2 Javelin Glitch
    This one was annoying as hell, it would basically explode the javelin at your feet when you died killing everyone in the area so you couldn't kill anyone with it unless it was from far away.

    There's a whole TVTropes page for awesome bugs as well as one for the baddies.

    As for me, I'd have to say that the block duplication glitch from Minecraft 1.7.2 is my favorite. My server is even still on that version specifically for that glitch.

    For the worst, that's the infinite death cycle glitch in Halo. If you happen to reach a checkpoint in a situation where you die instantly after said checkpoint, you'll end up respawning and dying forever, effectively forcing you to restart the level.

    A pretty great glitch was the glitch in San Andreas that made you able to use any weapon infinitely, it was pretty helpful on my first complete playthrough of the game. A funny one would be one that happened to me in Red Dead Redemption, it wasn't even that uncommon of a glitch in that game but it was pretty amusing this time. I was doing one of the missions, the optional ones for peoples, I had just done what I was supposed to do and came back to the guy. Then the scene started and the guy was invisible, but he was holding a broom though and that was not invisible and I swear to god I thought it was the broom that was talking to me, I was certain of it and it was tripping me out so badly. The broom then walked away all the way back to Armadillo.

    Worst glitch? Uh, just any in general that makes the game crash.

    As awesome as the Missingno glitch was, it caused me to lose all my data. Thank goodness it wasn't my 100% game. Still, sucked to lose everything.

    Best glitch: KH: CoM- using Cloud and the Divine Rose card w/ Marluxia enemy card allowed me to use any random sleight twice.

    Worst glitch: Dante's Inferno- Some of the walls in the circle of greed are easy to get though and will cause to fall out of the map and die. But the last time I was riding on one of those huge demons and fell out the map, so I never died. I ended up having to reset the game and start the circle all over again.

    I have to say glitch city was just as good as Missingno although no infinite items it looked awesome.

    The T-Stance isn't a glitch.

    My worst glitch, and the only one I can remember was when I was playing Kingdom Hearts 2, The battle of 1000 heartless. I decided that because it was so easy I would ban myself from using reaction commands, it was still just as easy, just took longer. When my heartless count reached 999 I couldn't find the last one, I walked around the arena for a good couple of minutes and couldn't find any heartless whatsoever, so it meant I had to restart my PS2 and load. It was incredibly annoying after all the work I put in it.

    Best Glitch(es)
    Spyro 2 & 3 - Swim In Air Glitches - They essentially allowed you to sequence break a bit, which is usually helpful.

    Tales of the Abyss - Travel Anywhere - Similar to Twilight Princess' version of the glitch, you could move anywhere on the World Map to successfully sequence break.

    Worst Glitch
    The Lord of the Rings: The Third Age - Missing Idrial - Basically, if you went back to Osgiliath after completing it, there would be a small chance that Idrial would disappear from the party for the rest of the game.
