A while back, okay more like 2 years at least, I played a Turok game, my first one since Evolution. Seeds of Evil. It was for Nintendo 64. The controls took me a while to get used to, but I got pretty far in the game I think. I forget where I left off.
Anyway, I noticed something weird about the raptors. While they usually would attack me like they're supposed to, there were times where their behavior was...quite off. There were 2 main behaviors I noticed which happened at random.
The first behavior was running all over the place in the same pattern, totally ignoring me. I've had a few raptors do this. They run in circles, sometimes big ones, and sometimes smaller ones. They don't deviate from their path during this (unless I shoot them I think), and they'd repeat this pattern forever if you let them.
And the second one is the complete opposite. Some raptors just stood there not doing anything at all. Even when I'm in plain sight, the raptor will not move. Oh it'll do the idle standing animation, but that's it. There was even one time that I was practically inches away from the raptor and it still wouldn't budge. It eventually attacked me, but I remember I had to do something to get it to do that.
I have footage of the glitch somewhere on my comp. I may upload it sometime.

Some game glitches can be interesting or amusing. or frustrating at times, I'm sure. I think the AVGN had an episode about game glitches. Is this the only game you've seen with Game glitches?

No.
Another game I remember seeing a glitch is Spyro 2: Ripto's Rage. The glitch isn't game breaking. It's just funny to do. There's a level where there's a side quest to locate this blob's bird girl friend, and when you find her, she flies down to the blob guy.
When you go down to talk to them, if you position yourself right (I'd have to play the game again to remember how I do it) and click triangle to talk, Spyro will be stuck in a particular animation, the one he uses when he wants to walk a distance away and then turn around and look at who he's talking to. But there's a cliff in his way and I guess the game is designed so that Spyro won't fall down over edges.
So as a result, Spyro is stuck walking very slowly (part of the glitch; he usually walks fast) away from the bird girl as she is talking to him about how she loves her boyfriend but won't marry him because he's short. My brother and I find this glitch to be funny because it looks like Spyro's like "Oh please shut up about your stupid romance, you dumb bird..."

Sounds funny to see.
The only glitch I can think of seeing is in a pc game. I think named no one lives forever 2. It happened once, where one of the ninjas was invulnerable, but seemed unable to detect you. You could attack the person, you'd get the spurts of blood, but they'd take no damage and would just stand there since they could not detect you. Not funny like yours. I think a reloading a saved and it wasn't there.
