    Dunno if anyone else gets this all teh renderware games i have seem to develop a god damn game ruining mother****ing pain in the the god damn hole glitch.

    Crackdown was 1st with levels just disappearing leaving me running or fighting on nothingness vs people who were floating in mid air but not really.

    Now Saints Row doing the same but at least in Crackdown i could move, the game actually not the game i freeze when in cars and on a mission and rest of the game world still goes on leaving me sitting in an invisible car with time running out and police everywhere.

    Happened to me in Saints Row but never in Crackdown. Its the game trying to load new areas when you are moving through the world. If you outrun it, it gets frazzled.

    Only way to avoid it is to slow down when you notice it starting. :/

    EDIT: Saints Row isn't built on Renderware.

    I think it's just a problem with games that stream data and textures on the xbox 360. I've a very bad feeling that the DVD drives in the xbox 360 are very bad quality and there are going to be complaints of PS2 type disc read errors in 6 months or so. Even when my console was relatively new I would sometimes wander into a room in GoW to be greeted with some N64 era textures while the disc drive struggled to load the hi res textures. Games like Crackdown and Saints Row stream a lot more data off the disc so will suffer even more than GoW and I've seen Crackdown do the same to me a few times. Hopefully MS will start letting devs put the games on Hard Disk for better access times in streaming games. I'd say it's your DVD drive on it's way out.
