Bug: Kashyyk Training: If you get smashed by one of the logs whilst training, you go straight through the log.

Factual error: Roaming the Istanbul marketplace in the prologue, the protagonist Antoinette Marceau mentions that the rugs look as if they might be able to fly "like the fabled Aladdin carpet." The association between Aladdin and the magic carpet comes from the Disney movie, it's not something a lady in the 1930s would have said.

Simon's Quest mistake picture

Other mistake: Every time you retrieve a part of Dracula, the message on screen misspells the word "Possess", giving you messages such as "you now prossess Dracula's rib."

Larva Mortus mistake picture

Bug: Sometimes after killing an enemy, the blood will go through the wall and land in the black area outside of the map. Which is doubly weird since blood normally only stays around the same spot the enemy was killed in.

Bug: Sometimes in the ending screen where the survivors are running side by side, two of them will be put in the same spot. They will be running inside each other.

Character mistake: When Fatman begins to explain the 'party' rules, he says "If you prefer to stay in ONCE piece..." This is a spelling error, as he should have said 'ONE piece'.

More Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty mistakes

Factual error: When giving birth in the game, giraffes will lie down, as do other in-game animals. Giraffes in the real world rarely lie down and even give birth standing up.

More Zoo Tycoon 2 mistakes

Revealing mistake: On Escort matches, any time the tank goes under a walkway, you can see the antennas sticking up through the floor moving through it like a shark fin.

The Simpsons: Bart's Nightmare mistake picture

Continuity mistake: Smithers is shown in Bart's Nightmare with green hair, instead of the grey hair he is usually seen with in the show.

Other mistake: Starting a new game, the description for the Fiction mode says... well, exactly that. "This is the description for the Fiction mode." Nothing else at all. Placeholder text at the very beginning of the game.

Sammo

More We. The Revolution mistakes

Bug: Return Of The King, Level 4: The Battle Of Pelennor Fields - The orc army is approaching Minas Tirith at the start of the level clip. But as the "camera" pans around, half of the orcs literally disappear.

Casual Person

Video

Revealing mistake: Towards the beginning, you find a VHS tape upstairs in the house. Putting it in the VCR plays the tape, but allows you to see the video through he camera man's perspective, by playing as him during the recording. If you press the control button to block, you see the camera man's hands, both arms, come up to block. However the camera he's recording with stays in place. It's a camera that uses VHS so it wouldn't be strapped to his head. He should drop the camera if he lifts both hands like that, but is putting them in front of the camera.

Suggested correction: It's possible it was a non-VHS camera that was transferred to a VHS.

LorgSkyegon

That would make no sense considering the context and situation. This is a 'haunted house' and with this being a Resident Evil game which is a time line set where the end of the world happened in the mid 90's when VHS was still in wide spread use.

Quantom X

Clearly a mistake. For example why would you record something and then transfer it to outdated technology?

Ssiscool

Indeed. And now that I've seen a bit further into the game. Another character gets the same camera and records another message on a tape and leaves it behind for you to find.

Quantom X

More Resident Evil 7 mistakes

Audio problem: When any character talks over the com, their face appears animated as they speak. All of them are depicted as talking with SUPER fast mouth movements of the jaw opening and closing the full time they speak. This is way too fast to line up with their dialogue at all, and just looks goofy.

Quantom X

More Star Fox 64 mistakes

Other mistake: In the opening sequence, Dr. Wily's name is misspelled Dr. Willy with two L's. This mistake is carried over to Mega Man Legacy Collection 2.

Quantom X

More Mega Man 7 mistakes

Other mistake: It is possible to check the vitals on Polus. This would involve attaching some kind of medical device to allow this. But Imposters are shapeshifting aliens that are not supposed to be there, but their vitals are readable as well. This should not be the case.

Suggested correction: Given that the players have backpacks and we never see the back there could be a vitals reader on the back.

With a recent update, it's now clear that there're no vitals reader on the back.

More Among Us mistakes

Bug: At the reception desk, the computer mouse can be picked up. If you hold it and then flip your hand upside down, the mouse's cord will pass through your hand.

Quantom X

More Surgeon Simulator 2013 mistakes

Audio problem: Several lines in this game are said where the character's mouth is out of sync for at least a third of the line. Especially Doc's lines.

Casual Person

More Back To The Future: The Game mistakes

Character mistake: During matches involving Triple H, one of the random tidbits Jerry "The King" Lawler can mention is the match Hunter had on Wrestlemania 2000, where he bested in a fatal four-way "Mick Foley, the Rock and Mankind." Mick Foley IS Mankind, the fourth person in the main event was The Big Show.

More WWE 2K16 mistakes

Audio problem: "Message In A Bottle" has a guitar outro with extra vocals that is not in the master track.

More Guitar Hero II mistakes

Bug: If an NPC zombie is too close to certain obstacles, they will appear to be crouched on the ground. The Collision is just enough to cause them to not be able to make any sideways movement unless they are activated, thus they will just be crouched on the ground slowly rotating around. It is comical for a group of zombies to be doing this while occupying the same space, as they have a dog pile effect making a tower of crouched rotating zombies.
