10 Video Game Glitches That Made Saving DELETE Your Progress Instead

10. The Cherry Popper Ice Cream Company - Grand Theft Auto Vice City

When you say the word glitch to an OG Grand Theft Auto fan, the first thing that comes to their mind is probably the swing set from GTA IV that can catapult you across all of Liberty City.

However, there is another more infamous glitch that most fans would rather forget, because instead of fun, it created misery.

This is, of course, a reference to the dreaded Cherry Popper Ice Cream factory corruption that used to plague the early copies of GTA Vice City for the PlayStation 2.

The bug caused all saves made inside the ice cream factory to become corrupted and completely unplayable.

The reason for why this one specific location caused these issues is unknown, but the glitch was still common enough that the factory quickly gained notoriety among early Vice City players, who eventually started warning each other of the error.

Honestly, the glitch (or lack thereof) might be the only thing the new remaster of Vice City has over the original release.

This still doesn't make it a better game, but hey! At least somewhere bothered to fix this decades-old issue.
