This game is literally the main reason I can't recommend PC gaming to normies. You have to search through forum posts to find the solution, editing a .ini file, just to get a AAA game to run at all on this "infinitely backwards compatible" system.

This shit always happened to me with Spyro A Hero's Tail. Had to restart it too many times. When I finally beat the game my save was gone the next day. Fuck that game. I had a small amount of hope after Enter the Dragonfly, but Hero's Tail was when I realized the serious was dead. At least the gba trilogy was ok.

Get it for vita if you have one. It's on sale. I think the issue with the 3ds version was with saving in the pressure room.

My friend has this thing in Fallout New Vegas for Xbox 360 that whenever he loads a new area, sometimes the game just freezes at a black screen before/after it gets to the loading screen (IDK I've seen it happen but don't have the game myself) that makes his save file corrupt. Actually, I've seen it twice, once on his Xbox 360 and one time when he was playing it on my Xbox 360, which is a different model than his.


He keeps trying and trying to even finish one scenario, but it always happens before he can finish the game.

During development of the racing game Race and Chase, a glitch caused police to be abnormally aggressive, trying to run the player off the road and stuff. Playtesters loved it and would intentionally aggravate the cops to start exciting chases. The game was rebuilt around this, with more stuff to do besides racing that would involve fighting and escaping the police and criminals and stuff. It was renamed Grand Theft Auto.

>On March 23, 2005 it was announced that Vivendi Universal games were ceasing all support for the game, beginning with the termination of the 1.1 version update. In a January, 2006 interview, in response to suggestions of a falling out between VU games and Irrational, Ken Levine commented:
>This falling out with VUG is some kind of Jedi mind trick, man. We just finished an expansion pack [for SWAT 4] for them, and it went as smooth as cream cheese. With Tribes, we did a patch, and for whatever reason they decided not to release it.

Disabling saving in the most problematic area is better than just leaving it there.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure it was the scenes for a couple particular skills in D2.

Yeah, that is the most pragmatic solution: people who already know to avoid the bug can do so, and those who don't won't be able to hurt themselves.
I heard that there was a bug like that but didn't know how it happened other than that saving caused it somehow, so I would only save after hitting an ending.
Needless to say, this lead to my 3DS being on all the time and me being scared of hitting the power button by accident.

Doing a "genocide run" in the demo was spooky as shit. Chara would erase all of the hints and replace them with a picture of Flowey; dead.

I found it immensely disappointing that the full game didnt have fun with the image files.

That game was so unfinished it even tells you about vehicle repair kits that don't actually exist in the game. Still loved it, though. Nothing scratches my itch for blowing shit up like Mercenaries.
