Does the day 1 patch address the glitches? Any major or noticable bugs? Just asking because I don't see a review for the PS3 version.

there for sure a few bugs, i havent played the game yet but so far my friend put in about 9hrs into it and he said he havent noticed anything ( ps3 version ) but that doesnt mean there isnt a bug or two somewhere. but i goggled what u asked yesterday to see some inputs , not only ps3 version is better than the other system, graphic wise, and less buggy, but it has the least amount of glitches. i would link u but im sure u can google urself cuz im at work at the moment. but ign and few other sites are showing side by side videos and ps3 looks amazing.

What i have seen so far, about 5 hours in, it runs great. The new engine does the job. There are probably some bugs with the game of this scale but nothing groundbreaking that ruins the experience. Bethesda did a great job on PS3 version, go for it. ;)

I was hoping it didn't have screen tearing on PS3 and was v synced.Took agamble and bought it, the game runs AMAZING on PS3. It looks beautiful and places just the same. Buy.

i know they have rebuilt the game engine from scratch, but the game-breaking bugs and glitches in New Vegas have completely destroyed any confidence i had in Bethesda. As much as i want to play this game right now, i am going to give it awhile to see if they are any major issues before i buy the game. And if there are any issues at all, then I'm skipping the game completely.

From what I've heard there are some major freezing issues with the game. Can't confirm it myself as I haven't played it yet, but I'm holding off on this until they fix it.

I have heard the bugs seems to be not platform dependant, which must mean it is in the base code and was ported over. I am sure most of these bugs will be gone soon enough Bethesda do a pretty good job considering the size of the games they produce.

What game breaking bugs are you refering to? iv put in about 100 hours "multible play throughs" and have not encounterd any thing i would even come close to calling game breaking. the game had some freezing issues just like F3 had but that only happend every now and then. And after the last couple patchs those freezing issues are really few and far between for me. Iv encounterd 1 quest breaking bug for a minor side quest "the one were u have to save the farmers brahmen from a super mutent" But other than that any glitchs iv seen have been fairly minor and nothing "game breaking". im not saing your wrong but just asking what bugs you have found that broke the game?

they're not major, but can be a bit nervewraking. It can freeze for a few seconds at times, but then goes back to normal. The worst was when it happened right before character customization (right in the beginning of the game), but after that point it really hasn't been a big deal (I'm 7 hours in and it hasn't come back except once that lasted 2 or 3 seconds).

Other than that the game runs very well, which is surprising considering the massive amount of things you are able to do in it.

Litterally just had a glitch, it froze on the loading screen and in the end I had to restart my system, I wasn't in the middle of doing anything important so it hasn't annoyed me too much. But other then that it's runs great...unlike new vegas -.-

It just happened that at one place I couldn't loot some dead bodies (sadly one of them was pretty strong and surely had something interesting). Also, I found out that riding a horse (or should I call them 'Spiderponies' now?) enables you to climb almost vertical mountain sides. No other glitches or bugs detected. It runs better than I ever expected.

New Vegas was made by obsidian, not Bethesda.

I've been playing TES since it started with Arena, and there isn't a better rpg out there. I honestly wouldn't care if it had more bugs than a first release of a Microsoft operating system, I'd still play it:D

Same here. I've played too many broken Bethesda games on the ps3 to buy one so close to launch. I'm amazed so many people did. It's like paying $60 for a beta.

I'm waiting until they release their obligatory big patch we always see with a Bethesda game...even then, I'll probably just rent it for the ps3 and wait for goty for the pc.

I'm amazed that the ps3 version looks nicer but is that the way it was built or does the 360 have some weird visula glitch? The looks of the game wasn't what worried me, it's the stability. I don't want to buy another game that crashes every 15 mins.
