Something really weird happened to my contoller last night. Right, when I booted up my Spyro the Dragon game, loaded up my game and ended up at the peir at the start of Peace Keepers World, Spyro suddenly started running to then left and jumped into the water when I wasn't even touching the contoller and I even tried pausing my game, but when I continued the game, Spyro carried on running off to the left. The funny thing was, when I rebooted the game, every thing was fine after that.

Something similar happened to me in RR.... Spyro wouldn't go straight; he kept moving v-e-r-y slowly to the right...

Wow! I thought I was the only one. This really creeped me out at first, especially when it made it look as though Spyro was committing suicide by jumping off the peir.

p.s. this has happened to me in a couple of other games as well, must be quite a common glitch on PSX games

Sometimes... you can "fight" against the glitch, as you can move around, but going in the opposite direction of Spyro's running is very hard.

I tried that but Spyro just wouldn't stop going to the left., even when I tried going to the right. All I could do was jump, charge, breath fire and pause the game.

Lol, nice new avvie, Pyro girl. But all Spyro did on my controller glitch was to keep moving to the right! Wow, it never jumped, flamed, or paused on mine! That's rather creepy! However, it only happened to me on Spyro games...

Thanks, I just drew Spyro myself when I was bored and thought 'Hey, that'll be cool avvie' and just scanned it onto the computer and wrote Spyro's name in Japanese on paint.

And that weird contoller glitch is creepy. It gave me a fright at first when mine made Spyro commit suicide.

It happened to me again but this time spyro kept walking towards the screen and he seemed to walk faster when I moved the camera around and again it fixed itself when I reset my PS2. At least he didn't commit suicide this time, though.

EDIT: I think I've found the problem. You know that plasic sort of rubber around the wire that you plug into the console? Well, I found that there was a tiny split in the plastic, very very slightly exposing the wires inside.

I had this in the first three games and Jak and Daxter 1.

StD: I kept on rolling around the hill in the middle of the Artisans Home.

GtG: A helpful one, actually. On the fourth time attempting to get 'Perfect' against Ripto, Spyro kept on going towards the orbs. Shame he didn't charge, since he got hit by Ripto alot by not.

YotD: Now this was pure funny and weird. In Sunrise Spring Home, I passed Moneybags then suddenly I shifted to the left wall! I pushed away but I couldn't get off. Thankfully charging to the right got me moving, so I kept on doing so but whenever I stopped I'd crash into the left wall again. I even got into the Superfly cave, and it was creepy. Instead of going right, I hit the ceiling. Immediately, I went through it! I flew up into the air BEYOND the maximum height for the level. I went up to the point that when swimming into the air in Evening Lake you notice all the floating portals. I went beyond that. I went out of the graphics view and it all went black. Then, I found myself in Midday Garden! That's how the levels are spaced, I guess. By a black void. I was still superflying... upwards. I ended up in Evening Lake, Midnight Mountain and then Super Bonus. I even ended up in the final battle and, not having a clue, the Sorceress randomly died and I got Ying Yang. Only I didn't. The egg didn't appear. I then saw 'THE END', which darn spoiled it for me (!) and then I was back in Sunrise Spring. I tried to get out of the bug by smacking through some portals, but when I tried I didn't go through. I then had a random proxy jump and ended up out of the level and falling to my death. When you get an egg, Zoe saves, right? Well, when I got Ying Yang, after dying, I had been saved. I didn't see 'THE END' again, but I was in the final battle arena. Then I fell through the floor into the pink goo and a screeching high sound sounded and the game crashed. I gaped.

TPL: In Misty Island, Jak ran into the shark-infested water...

Weirdest. Glitches. Ever.

I know. I wish you could get to the void with the swimming glitch, but I've tried. Also, alot of you know the invincibility and glide on water glitch in Stone Hill, right? I looked through YouTube and came across a video for an invincibility glitch in Dark Passage. I forget the link, but at a certain point where a dragon is and you glide to some ledge, there'll be some enemies. Let them hit you 'til you have no Sparx and quickly kill them. Now, go up to the armoured tortoise thing and go by him so he fires a rock and then quickly back off to the dragon platform (yes, you don't need to start a new game). As usual, everything will freeze but you and the platform's stuff whilst on the menu. Now choose Replay Dragon and when you do the rock in mid-air will hopefully hit you while the dragon is wobbling (requires practise). Once the dude shuts up, you'll be in-game and invincible! Go up to all the enemies and taunt them whilst they hit you and fail to kill you. Also, glide off the edge and you'll be gliding along the point of death. The camera may go a bit weird and may even go right through Spyro so that you see purpleness. Crash into something and you'll be ever-falling nowhere like in Stone Hill.

Also in Dark Passage, without any glitches or anything, I accidently fell off the edge to my death where that dragon I mentioned is. And when I was about to die, I saw at the bottom of the level the sparks of an enemy dying, or maybe a life. Creepy.

And in RedDevilDazzy's Dark Passage video, he mentions a glitch as he wobbles on top of a dog. I've accidently done it before. It's a proxy jump. Just glide over so that you're wobbling on top, and either get hit by another dog or jump (a bit like the proxy jump in Hurricos). Unfortunately, this isn't one that plummits you into the air, but one which sends you to the lower down ledge (it lead me there, but if it leads you somewhere else then tell me where, even if it sends you into the goo).

And to Pyro Girl: Weird glitch, weird person. It works.

And to Lover of Spyro: You are Spyro mad.

And to Dragginwings: Loving that siggy!

And to myself: Moooooooo.

And to dark52: *Thumbs up*

And to RedDevilDazzy: *Thumbs--OWW!!!!*

And to Spyro: Why did you just set my finger on fire.

And to my siggy: I just added a third line to you.

Once... I put my PSX controller on the table.. and something in my STD game caused it to rumble... and the controller actually fell of the table and the game paused. When I unpaused... I got Pyro Girl's glitch! o_0

Lol. I got another glitch in GtG with my wireless controller. The light on it was flashing, in other words low battery. Since I had saved in Breeze Harbour yesterday, I started there and Spyro went left... right into the aim of one of those metal bucket things. I just replaced the controller's adaptor with the other one and gave the bucket thing a good ol' superflame for revenge.

Also, I can't get the Swim-in-the-Air glitch in Breeze Harbour to work. Anyone know any videos?

EDIT: I found another Invincibility Glitch! In Terrace Village, get hit three times and kill all the floor-zappers in the area with the second dragon but NOT the last one. Time it right so that you charge off the unzapped platform just as it's gonna be zapped, so that you get pushed forwards and directly into the platform and free the dragon. Let him talk then you can go around laughing at enemies whilst you walk over zapped floors. And, ofcourse, glide into the green goo, if you don't mind being stuck.
