If any of you have ever played Peggle Deluxe, you instantly know that it's a very fun and addicting game. (Its official thread can be found here: http://dgsgaminginc.ipbfree.com/index.php?showtopic=28. Be sure to sign up and post!) But have you ever seen any glitches? I've found several... seven to be exact! Here I will describe what happens in each one and how to recreate it:
Glitch 1: Squashed Ball
Basically the ball gets cornered in a ring of pegs against the wall. When the space closes, the ball is forced to go through the pegs instead of bouncing off of them as usual. Unfortunately, unless you make the exact same shot I did, this glitch is impossible to recreate.
Glitch 2: Infinite Rumble
Start a quick play game on any level with any character. Hit all the orange pegs and save the fever shot as a replay. Return to the menu and view the replay you just saved. Exactly when the ball hits the final orange peg, click "done" on the replay widget. Now roll your mouse over everything I did in the video. If you did it right, the whole screen will shake.
Glitch 3: Infinite Effects
Repeat glitch 2 except click "done" just after hitting the final orange peg. If you did it right, you will see shimmering light effects either to the left or right side of the "EXTREME FEVER" text. In the video, you can barely see shimmering light to the left of "EXTREME".
Glitch 4: Peek-a-Boo Jimmy
If you achieve a certain combo, Jimmy Lightning will appear and vanish instantly rather than hang around long enough for you to read what he's saying. Like glitch 1, this cannon be recreated; it is merely at random. However, getting lots of combos and points at the same time seems to increase your chances at doing this glitch yourself.
Glitch 5: Loud Fire
When the fireball ricochets off the free ball bucket to the left wall rapidly, it becomes loud, creating a short-wave echo effect. Hardly recreatble unless you're really good at shooting.
Glitch 6: Weird Zoom
The ball gets wedged in a corner of pegs near the final orange peg, and the zoom sequence plays until it's hit. The only way you would be able to recreate this one is if the orange peg were to end up in a similar position and you hit it last.
Glitch 7: Button Error
Start a challenge game. Pick any stage with any character. Fail the challenge, and when the retry dialogue appears click "menu" under the Ball-O-Tron and click "restart challenge". The game does nothing, no matter how many times you click it. You can exit the dialogue and click "retry challenge" on the previous dialogue to restart correctly.
*Most of these glitches will require a registered version of Peggle Deluxe to recreate (or attempt to recreate), because not all levels and game modes are available in the demo version. Search crack sites, Limewire, or any other sources to find a keygen or full version (at your own risk, of course).
This wasn't all that bad of a video: I don't understand why the rating is 2.5 stars. It's true that half of them aren't glitches, but they are still stuff that's hard to reproduce, and some little things that nobody noticed (7th glitch).
I would rate this video with a 4, if it weren't for the fact that for some you actually showed a zoom in and slow down, allowing the viewer to understand better. Thus, 5 stars. Also, to increase your ratings.

Yeah, it's pretty rare that a video of mine gets a low rating. Apparently some people don't learn to appreciate some things. Oh well. At least you do. Thanks for that.

Dude, why does this have a 2.5 star rating?
A 2.5 star rating is for kiddies that make fucking annoying videos to piss people off.
I rated it a 5, brah.
