I'm having the same problem as you. it's stuck on Uncle Vlad... wait crap it just finally loaded! it took 10 tries, and it kept beeping everytime I shut it off, clean the disc. thank god it worked, I might bring it back to best buy and get another copy and see if thats the problem

Someone suggested logging off PSN...I tried it, it worked. But I couldn't then log back in and go online. It froze almost immediately when I tried. Grr..

However, if you just want to get back into your single player game, try that. It worked for me.

Pretty much, for now. Until there's a patch, anyway.

At the moment, I'm just happy I can still play the game. Even though GTA4 online destroys the single player game.

What worked for me was once I reinstalled the data, while it was installing, I pressed no buttons, then I disconnect from PSN whenever I want to play the story mode,a nd Ive played 20 hours since I started doing that, and it hasnt frozen once.

Get a new copy, I couldn't even get past the first 5 minutes of my original disk. I tried what you tried, still nothing, so I got a new copy. Now I have no issues in my game and can play everything fine (knock on wood!). I think that there are just some faulty disks out there....
