CloseOnce I was playing this old arcade game called Poly... something. Polybouse? Polybuses? Something like that. It was this weird puzzle game thing, sort of like Tetris but not falling blocks, just that sort of pace.
So I was doing really well, level 8 on just one quarter, and there was this line of people behind me (it was a really popular game), but I was in the zone so I barely noticed them. Then like I beat 8 and there was some kind of flashy light thing. I thought it was a victory cutscene or something but then text stuff started showing up. It wasn't garbled like in the Pac-Man kill screen or anything, but it was just some random words that flashed really fast.
Weirdly, I guess everyone in line was epileptic or something, because next thing I knew, I was at the back of the line and they were all sprawled down on the floor. I think someone was carrying some red ink or something, because that stuff was EVERYWHERE. Like some even got on my hands somehow.
Anyway, that was a really unfortunate glitch because apparently after it caused a whole bunch of epileptic seizures, the arcade had to shut down for a while, which sucked because that game was freakin awesome. Man, I wish I could still play it! I was apparently really torn up about it when the arcade got rid of it, like tantrums and stuff. I don't remember, but Mom says I had to talk to a therapist about it for a while.
Now that I'm actually telling the story, I don't know why I went to the back of the line after that glitch. I guess I was going to go tell the staff about it? Only I probably wouldn't have wanted to leave my place. The players got really cutthroat about getting a turn sometimes. Like, DDR had nothing on it!
So that's my old puzzle game glitch story thank you for reading and God bless.

It's not really that interesting, now that I think about it. Just a flashy screen and some words.

uh, well, creepypastas aside, I had a pretty hilarious time the first time I tried to play Crysis on the 360.
There was a loading glitch, so most of the textures didn't load in, and neither did any animations. So, most of everything was matte-colored, interactable objects were just outright invisible, and everyone was stuck in there T-Pose. The opening skydiving scene was just some dudes standing around in their T-Pose mid-air, I could tell by my shadow when walking around that I was stuck in my T-Pose, enemies were driving speedboats in their T-Pose... The funniest thing about that is that enemies couldn't shoot me, because they were forced to hold their guns to the side.

Please don't call my childhood memories of a beloved game creepypasta. It's rude.
ETA skip about 4 mins 30 seconds there unless you're very interested in wrestler entrances.

There’s one that I remember fondly that I still haven’t duplicated or heard anything about it when trying to research some more information about it, and that game-breaking glitch was when I was playing Final Fantasy II (IV) on my SNES back then almost twenty years ago when I was playing the game again for the umpteenth time.
So usually when you first get to the underground, after defeating Calcabrina and Rydia rejoins your party again, you’re supposed to head on over to the Tower Of Babil to retrieve all the stolen crystals that Golbez has taken with the help of the dwarfs that are supposed to cover for you while you happen to sneak inside the tower. Usually you go in and you proceed to kick some ass – but not this one time for me, and I’ll never forget it…
When I first got inside the tower that time, the long corridor that you go through on the first map was then suddenly blocked off by this red explosion-like graphic, which almost looks exactly like the same graphic used for the cannon fire from the dwarfen tanks from earlier. Whenever you try to examine or talk to it, the screen then shakes and you hear almost the same exact sound effect when an earthquake happens in the game, like that one scene in the Village Of Mist. After that nothing really happens afterwards and then you soon have control over Cecil again, but the red explosion graphic is still there and doesn’t disappear whatever the hell I tried doing to it. I tried examining it many, many times, even coming back after an hour or so and even tried talking to everybody in the Dwarfen Castle again but nothing ever happened and the graphic was still there no matter what I did. I basically was stuck and had to basically restart a brand new file again from scratch – and it p*ssed me off. This happened to me sometime in 1995 or 1996, so the Internet wasn’t quite around yet back then, and nobody knew what the f**k I was talking about whenever I mentioned it at school. It was like basically seeing a solar eclipse without having a working camcorder to record it.
Stupid glitch! You costed me almost six hours of my entire life and I want it back!!!

And then the entire bus clapped.
(Actual Real Story tho: I was playing The Suffering on the PS2 on third-person mode and the flamethrower got lodged in Torque's chest. It was pretty funny.)
