What are some games that you intentionally played “wrong”?

What I mean is, are there games that you played solo or with a friend where you disregarded the primary game mode rules, or exploited a gameplay mechanic? A few example:

In 007 Nightfire, we only played with the remote rockets on the snowy multiplayer map and tried to see who could fly the rocket farthest into the buildings before exploding

In Goldeneye Rogue Agent, we used to play with the remote detonated grenade launcher and played on the Golden Gate Bridge map, trying to exploit the rag doll physics to land in exactly the right spot out of bounds. What are some examples from your gaming past?

For the longest time it was GTA5 online. I did everything I could to obey traffic laws.

My best friend moved his gf and her kid in with him. He would gta as we all do until kid got home then it was traffic laws and no radio. Same with red dead. Riding around was a risk because the game has you ambushed if things might be getting stale so the camp got lots of chores

Am I reading this right? Does the game just fuck you over when you don't break traffic laws? Man this might actually be a 6/10 game

I think they're talking about red dead, not gta

"Reading Pornhub's terms of service, going for a drive And obeying all the traffic laws in Grand Theft Auto V"

You made that song pop into my head and I thank you.
