Now that many of us have finished GTA:SA, what glitches have you seen?

I've experienced:

-Basketball glitch, where saving at Madd Dogg's mansion eliminates all the basketballs from the game *crying purple thing*

-Having a parachute in my inventory when I commandeer a plane, and then jumping out and pulling the cord results in "parachute failure" where CJ does his parachute fall animation while still dropping like a rock

-Losing almost all my health while doing the above and dropping into water (falling into water normally negates damage)

-Beagle at Fort Carson-it's unflayable because the game spawns the wings inside of a porch

-Being wasted "twice" (usually the result of the game sending you to Montogomery or Fort Carson to respawn, but loading the data wrong)

-ped car hostages not dying when killed by you

-Johnson house garage eating my *&*&*34#* cars

-Not a glitch, but put your disc in your computer's CD tray and check its files for a file called "american.gfk" or something like that (in the text folder.) The file shows evidence that there was going to be a skateboard in the game, which would probably make the two goofy halfpipe missions make more sense (perhaps they couldn't work a skateboarding CJ into the plot so we got the Black Project and parachuting as a compromise?)

-(V thank you for reminding me) in one of the pictures in my photo gallery, taken at the beginning of the game, I have a pic of a dead guy standing on his head, limbs spread out, the result of him being hit by a car or something and then the car vanishing by the time I got the camera ready
 
Wow, I've only seen one. Early in the game I shot a guy but he got hit by a car at the exact same moment and ended up frozen in mid air, along with a blood spurt just dangling there.
 
i got stuck *inside* o.g. loc in that mission where you had to go to that house and then chase his prison buddy on a bike.. literally couldnt move/jump/attack/anything out of the spot we were stuck in... :lol
 
One thing I did find strange, although this might be my memory not being as accurate as it could be. In VC, when Tommy did the front, flying kick bike-jack he landed smoothly on the bike, but when CJ does it, he glitches right through the bike and kinda jerks back into the riding position. I think I need to pop in VC again to test this out though.
 
I've seen a ton of glitches.

I encountered a police car buried in the freeway all except the mars lights.

When I rescued that girl from the burning building and she becomes cj's girlfriend, when we get back to her house, a cop car chasing another car slammed into her front door before she could get to it, blocking her access to it, so I got stuck in that cut scene and had to reset.

I've jumped out of cars many times to have them land on top of me and kill me slowly.

Near the end of the game when you can take over gang territories again, the territory near your beach apt consistantly spawned the rival gang members underwater where they run around at the bottom of the ocean. If I swim down to them, they shoot me dead.

Had the same beagle issue.

Cars disappear if you put too many in a garage.

During the steal Maddog's music mission, I accidentally got into an invisible go kart inside his mansion and was able to drive it around. I found it by hitting triangle to play an aracde game I was too far away from. CJ turns invisible himself when he gets in.

There's a riding mower behind a house with a tree grown straight up through the middle of it.

The physics got so wacky towing a bus with a towtruck in a bumpy area, the game slingshot-launched the bus into the next county.

There's a giant purple double ended dildo in the police showers, but I guess that's not a bug.

This glitch annoyed me greatly. Had to do some screwing around with the sniper rifle in order to get that territory.
 
Worst: Getting stuck in the tail of one of the junked planes at Verdant Meadows airstrip.

Best: Landing on Mount Chiliad, collecting the parachute and starting a bike race. Instead of racing if you jump off the ramp and deploy your parachute, the game respawns you on the bike with the parachute still open.

I found if you run away from them down the beach they'll make their way onto dry land.
 
I once found a cop on a bike (with the cop still on the bike) embedded into the street.

Another similar glitch happened while I was taking Vagos territory. Everything was going find until the last wave. I saw the two yellow blips right in front of me but I could not see the gang members. They were stuck inside two different houses. I used the satchel bombs and that got rid of them. If my younger brother didn't notice that guns that they were holding I would have never have seen them. They were still running in place.
