I'm just curious as to which glitches, bugs, and freezes happened to you. I'll kick this off with a few of my own.
(the pictures are taken from ebgames.com, I just did a search and 'view image' on the small thumbnails)

- After beating a handicap match in season mode, my game froze and made a loud humming noise.
- Undertaker vs. Mankind, with me being the latter. We ran towards each other at the same time and got "stuck" on opposite turnbuckles.
- Same wrestlers, only HIAC this time. I run towards Undertaker, he delivers a back body drop, and Mankind lays there and twitches until I end the match.

- I knocked a guy backwards as Invisible Woman and he became "stuck" in mid-air and I couldn't hit him. Mr. Fantastic, the AI, kept trying to hit him as well.
- In the later levels, The Thing and enemies run towards a wall and keep doing so until you either kill the enemy or take control of your teammate.

- Near the beginning, by the farm house, there's an old crate jumping around.. I got squished by him and fell through the ground, only to land in the chamber below the farmhouse that contains the money, two dead babies, and a Conker tail.. but, problem.. the gates were still closed and I just killed the dead babies.. so I had to reload my game.

- I used telekinesis (sp?) to put a body on top of the spaceship. When I got in the spaceship to fly away, the body was floating in mid-air.
...go!

I think it was either Super Return of the Jedi or Super Empire Strikes Back-- but there was a flying scene and the game froze on it constantly. I think I exchanged it 8 times before I brought it back and got Super Metroid and Art of Fighting instead

My game constantly freezes on San Andreas for Xbox. I've had the game just freeze and make a loud humming noise several times. It happened today when I was exiting a room.

That's probably just the Thompson drive..

My Metroid Prime 2 has a major bug, it totally sucks even though it got above 9/10 on all of the review sites.

I remember my GameCube froze in Metroid Prime when I was rolling in a ball through one of the tunnels in Chozo Ruins.

The last time I remember having any sort of problems with a game was with PoP:WW on my Gamecube. I think I had activated a tower and was running down a corridor on my way back to the main chamber and the game just froze up on me. I was a little pissed considering it had been a while since I had saved. That was the only time it happened too. I'm just glad I was able to finish the game and not run into the glitch towards the end which makes you unable to finish the game. I would have been royally pissed.

One very annoying thing that happened at least once a session in Capcom Vs Snk 2 for Xbox always happened on Live.
Every once in awhile my character would just be stuck jumping for no reason and the controller would not respond until I unplugged the controller from the slot.
It was very annoying to have to eat a Level 3 super or some scrubby A - Groove combo whenever this happened. Yet I still managed to keep playing for nearly 10000 fights.

Only glitch I've had with this was during season mode, Booker T's entrance would always freeze after his pyro hit. Thankfully, skipping his entrance fixed the problem.
MVP Baseball 2004, Harry Potter & the Chamber of Secrets, WWE Raw 2
On my first Xbox, I would randomly and constantly get "Disc is Dirty or Damaged Errors." It was due to my Thompson drive. I pawned that Xbox and bought a Halo SE Xbox, and it's been no problems since then.
I rarely get glitches or errors, thankfully. :)

Last one I remember that made me quit the game was on Psi-Ops, there's level where you must psi-throw some barrels at a boss, but if you die, you restart at that level but there are no barrels to throw.

Mega Man X: Command Mission for Gamecube has frozen on me during battle about 10 times now. And today of all days, after I did an hour of work getting items in the longest and most time consuming area to get all the items (67 total or something)
Ugh.

Empire Strikes Back....froze for me a lot too, but I was able to complete it one time.

My copy of halo 2 died while I was playing. Despite having no scratches, it just froze one day during a team game on coag. After that all I would get is "disc is too scrathed, dirty" screens. Might just be a problem with my xbox, but I never heard nor seen this before, swapped the disc for a friends much more scratched up copy and it works perfectly.

My gamecube works perfectly with every game but Eternal Darkness. It skips and makes a loud grinding sound and then locks up. I returned it and same thing. It works on my friends systems just fine. I called nintendo and they said to play it on mono sound. That worked for about an hour and now i cant get past the intro stage. It sucks cuz I really wanna play through this game and nintendo says they cant fix it. I would return my GC for another one if it was a bigger problem but its just the one fucking game. fuck fuck fuck

Along time ago, my little cousin sat on his NES with Mario Bros. loaded. In the intro, instead of jumping over that little gap, Mario walks down to his death. O_o
When we started the game, we had more than the usual number of lives. I don't know what it meant, but the lives left were represented by a crown...

Odd regarding the intro, not odd regarding the #. After numbers, it goes to letters, then eventually to symbols.. you have so many lives that it's a symbol.

Same here, actually, though it works fine in my newer cube. Go figure.
Star Ocean: Till the End of Time a few times when I loaded my save up the text looked like a NES game (when the cart bugs out) scrambled and illegible.
And the game has froze on me a few times after a battle for about 3 min. but the odd thing is it came out of it both times.

Bloodrayne 2 the game is actually broken. I ran into a invisible wall the same one you will read about in ever review. That pissed me off.
Crash twinsanity. I have the new thin PS2. And after so far it locked up and It did ever single time. I reloaded So I said fuck it. Good thing I rented both of these.
ESPN 2K5 baseball for xbox. I would be playing as the KC Royals. I would go to the lineup screen and we would have 5 pitchers I could not change it so I would continue, and the the game would lock up. However the audio would continue like we were playing the game. I am not the only one to experience this my friend did to.
