The Da Vinci Code (PS2) - one glitchy night at Louvre...
9Robert Langdon is a deeply disturbed man, hope the French authorities catch him soon.
Yeah... The Da Vinci Code is another of those esoteric games we picked up and played with Kazooie one day, so he gets co-credit on some of the findings here.
0:00 - if you rapidly examine a certain type of prompt, it disables parts of Robert's movement, letting him rotate smoothly in place.
0:20 - if you try to "Drag" someone in cramped spaces, they might become picked up by some ghostly hands. Robert remains free to move while the dragged person becomes suspended in air by unexplainable means.
0:37 - camera ended up inside Robert's head, revealing to us his true face. The horror!
0:57 - getting into a fight near the poor suspended guard. Eventually I threw the other guard at him, releasing him from his glitchy predicament.
1:28 - the presence of other characters will softly push Robert, making him zip around in tight spaces. I couldn't breach walls doing this, though. The clip also shows off some more glitched drag action.
2:06 - it's not shown on the vid, but sometimes dragging someone while moving past a corner will separate the dragged person and Robert from each other. This usually ends the grab harmlessly, but in this instance I got an unique effect where the dragged guard not only stayed suspended but also moved on his own.
3:06 - Robert adds injury to insult by beating up the suspended guard. This ends the glitch.
3:18 - later on, at the outside area, a guard got knocked out on the stairs. Being awkwardly on the stairs (and partially in air) resulted in a new glitch effect: trying to drag the guard by his feet resulted in Robert being thrown in air, as if he was doing some weird high jump. After this, the "Drag" prompt got stuck on the screen, and it was impossible to try dragging the guard again without examining some other prompt first.
3:41 - trying out violence against this guard too. Then doing another "high jump". I couldn't do any jumps higher than this, so the results weren't too amazing, but I guess some type of jump is better than nothing.
