I thought I'd slot in a couple following Jon's post:

Switching on F-zero X

For those of you without an nsixty, F zero's a kind of wipeout style hovercar racer. Haven't seen it running in ages, but for the time it was fast. Immensely, uncontrollably fast.
Obviously it was switched on and put on 4 player, manuals? Epilepsy warnings? bah! Everyone simultaneously fell out of their seats, missed the first corner and went flying off the track. Four hours later the hypnotic concentration was enough to destroy our ability to walk, and to completely ruin the fool who tried it stoned.


Antics in Halo*

Warthog jumping
This is doom style rocket jumping, exacerbated by the following:

Grenades can be piled high, then set off by other explosions
Warthogs can't be destroyed
Overshields can't be damaged while they're charging

If you've never done this, go to the silent cartographer and try it. If you've never played Halo, kindly report for termination.


Superchief
There's all kinds of glitches involving the energy sword. Sitting in the side of a warthog waving one around is funny anyway. When you get out, fly halfway across the level and behead a legion of covenant, it's pure class.


Well, that's about all I can think of for now. Ideas?

*and halo 2, as it's blatantly the first one with bells on.

That's cool and all.. But who in the name of unholy Guppyness has ever played Ultima VIII?

it was worth a try, and if anyone wants to play it I can give them a copy
