We all love a good glitch in a game but I've found the mother of all glitches on Lego Harry Potter.
I've spent a few minutes short of 40 hours on this game. I'm sitting and 99.9% complete and there is a little glitch that stops me getting that last 0.01%. For those that aren't interested in 100% it's a minor glitch that won't matter but I rarely go for the full 100% and to be stopped a mere 0.01% from the finish line is a tad inconvenient (polite version).
I'm a programmer and I wouldn't give the 100% Glitch Free Seal of Approval to any of my significant developments but I'd also like to think that any of my glitches don't cause this sort of pain and suffering.

I generally find glitches amusing, but only if they are non-consequential/abusable for fun (e.g. the GTAIV Swing Glitch)
However, two recent glitches that have horribly irritated me.
PES2010: The Wembley/Konami Stadium Freeze Glitch - Basically, the first time you start a match in one of these two stadia (might have even included a few more) in a session, there is a chance the game will lock up on the entrance scene, requiring a hard reset, very annoying if it follows a couple of unsaved matches, or is the first match of the session.
G-Force: Elevator Glitch - As you approach the end of the game, there is a section where you go into an elevator, triggering a cutscene. When I got to this section, no cutscene... Turns out this is a glitch with no explainable cause. The solution? Start the game anew.
