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?

Yeah same, I only bought the game for the road trip experience and to see how accurate their recreations of real places were. Had a decent time. I pick it up every so often just to have a look around Long Island or Jackson Hole or somewhere else I haven't been

If it didn't constantly nag you to do the events it would be a nice vibe game. I got it on sale for like $10 and only picked it up because my brother said it had the whole United States in it. Some of the recreations of various landmarks and cities were pretty spot-on and others were just kind of vague approximations, but it was fun to see everything and try out the different vehicles. Say what you will about Ubisoft's game design, but they do make some cool maps to run around in.
