    Oh dear. Sorry about that, is it completely fucked now? My PS3 version hasn't yet. Is it to do with the game or the console?

    Ah sure it wouldn't be Microsoft without a few unexpected crashes. I think they do it on purpose so you become emotionally attached to their products, you get in so many shouting matches and can hate it so much at times it's like dealing with a person.

    I don't remember any crashes when in single player (on 360), but I've had a few oddities with multiplayer. I've got stuck on loading screens a few times, not had the patience to wait, and went back to the dashboard.

    Ah can't be too bad if there's no scractes, never crashed on me though on my 60 Gb PS3, but it crashed to a lad I know whom also has a 360. Is it a 360 format problem?

    i'm convinced its the DVD-drive on my end anyway... just crashes in random places sometimes when there's heavy loading. pain in the hole. really taking the shine of such a whopper game

    Thats odd i've been having the exact same problems with my 360 the last few days. It keeps freezing a few mins after i start a game. I don't get any red rings.
    I thought it might be the disc so i tried another game and same thing. Its even starting to happen on the arcade games.
    I'm on my third xbox in year and a half but the other ones always got the red ring of death. Might it have something to do with recent xbox updates?

    haha.long live ps3!!!never had a problem with my 60gb ps3! as soon as in game music on xmb happens i'll never look at a 360 again...

    A fanboy from Meath, I'd be very annoyed if I've ever seen you... :D Only messing. How much of a discount did you get on your PS3!! Haha!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 115 ✭✭TheZenWithin


    just playin nailz.respect to MS for gettin the formula for the xbox1 and 360 so bang on considering how new they are to the console game.but i just think the ps3 is sexier and xmb is better layed out than dashboard.and as far as games go the only game that ever crashed on me was assasins creed but there was a patch for that a week later so its all gud in the hud boi. i almost forgot XB live. yeh its a better service but come on who is the hell is going to pay for that on top of their broadband.once home is actually itroduced there'll be some big changes....and can you install another OS on the 360 with out hacking it to bits?NOPE!

    i better keep this on topic....uh gta has never crashed on me although i've noticed minor FPS drop in certain areas off the game that arent very graphically intense:D:D:D:D:D

    I haven't had any crashes with GTA4 on my PS3, but PGR4 crashes bloody lots :mad: Game just freezes, no red rings or any of that. Only way to get it going again is to power off the 360.

    ah i taught it was my disc f**king up on me all the time, but if it happened to you aswell its probably just a general problem

    Only a minority, it happens on both consoles.
