While playing Mass Effect, it seems to lag and glitch up, and jump around, almost as if the game is hiccuping. Does this happen to you? Im concerned whether or not my disc is damaged or something.

It happens every once in awhile to me, really not alot though...As a matter of fact I don't seem to have the majority of technical issues people have complained about.

It's a very, very buggy game. I think it's normal.

Are you kidding? This game can't keep a steady framerate to save its life. The hiccuping is completely normal. There are times when the framerate dips into the single digits. It's really a buggy game.

The game doesn't really have such serious issues, you should double check your disc for scratches and what not.

Its buggy, but it does not happen often at all. It isquite rare when the frame rate dips but it does happen.

Lags and glitches are pretty common in this game,i have i played this game 5 times and came across alot of them.

Lists of some glitches:

*Squad mates disapearing before the last boss fight.

*Shepard not running.

*dialogue wheel with no dialogues.

*Getting stuck in random stuff.

*AR not firing (not overheated btw).

*Insane Frame rate drop after a rachni sidequest.

But still its a great game.

lol, I would hardly call it a very buggy game. There are occassional frame rate dips but nothing serious. I played theough the game twice and didn't have a single issue. Frankly, beside portal, I think it is the best game available on the xbox 360 without hesitation.
