Hi. When i play Fallout 3 in about 5 hours, the game stops.. I cant do anything, the game just stands still, and i cant go to the menu on the ps3 and then close the game. I have to reset the consol. Does anyone know if its the game, or the consol? It normaly happens when i spin the char and press R2 to see if theres any enemies around. anyone knows what can be wrong? :)

Its nothing to worry about. Everyone experiences crashes when playing Fallout or Oblivion. Just remember to keep saving game or select autosave as a feature. Hope I helped! :)

I had something strange happen to my fallout 3. If I had played it too long, then for some reason it would skip all speeches when speeking to someone. I had to restartthe console. Really weird your problem aswell. Must be a fallout 3 glitch or something. :)

I had a problem like that, but my problem was when I tried to enter underworld. It would just stop in the middle of loading, very strange.

Beware Fallout 3's Autosave my friends. I was stealing from a store and then I hear "HEY! YOU STOLE THAT!" Then just as I get shot with a shotgun, the game decided to auto save so now every time I load that save I get shot and die. >=[ Had to start all over. Just a tip.

Yeah, it does seem to do that randomly doesn't it? Most of my freezing was opening doors or quickly afterwards which I assumed, had something to do with autosave.
