Ok, I'm not sure if this was a aparent known problem, but I recently bought a new 360 ( a week after halo 3 came out ) so I have the new chipset and what not, and I have some older games i've recently picked up such as Lost Planet and Dead Rising anddd Call Of Duty 2.
I love these games alot, but everytime I go to play them around 10-30 minutes into the game they randomly freeze, even durring online play.
I have tons of newer games and have NEVER had that problem with them ever, I was wondering if anyone else had issues with this?

Also, all the games I have that are older titles, are all brand new games, none were used at all and the cd's are in flawless condition.

I'd like to hear some feedback on this!!!

You must have a very old version of the 360, you need to upgrade to to elite.

Why would I go and spend 400 bucks on a system I already have?
The only difference between the new ones and the elite are the bigger harddrives thats it.

Sorry I don't live at home with Mommy and Daddy little man and money don't grow on tree's like that.

I asked for feedback not bragging rights.

the day an xbox 360 game doesn't work on my xbox 360 is the day that microsoft's tech support gets an earful from mei. wonder if your friend needs to update his/her firmware. do they have xbox live?

Do you have it connected to the internet? Has it been downloading system updates?
