Okay, I just got Saints Row 2. Brand new. But it freezes up then doesn't respond at all. I can't even open the Xbox Guide. I have to turn off the Xbox, then turn it back on.

What the hell is wrong with it?! I cleared my SR2 memory Cache and it worked fine for 1 hour and a half. Then it froze. I went on Xbox Live and downloaded an update and it worked fine for a bit, then crashed again.

Right now there is a certain mission for Brotherhood I'm on where you're like underground fighting your way out, and then as soon as I'm in a certain spot there is this weird graphic glitch, and sometimes it's like I can see the sky and the people, even though I'm underground. But I can not see the scenery around me down there. Not even the walkways.

Seems a lot of people have this problem, even PS3 users. Any suggestions anyone? Do you think maybe purchasing an intercooler would do anything, because it seems like every time it freezes, my xbox is on the warm side. If not, do you think there will be some kind of good patch out soon that will fix it and make everything run smooth and not crash?

Sorry for the long post but I'm like desperate for help, thank you guys! =]

I ran into a few glitches on my way through

Only 1 really hampered the experience...I was waiting on a guy to load up a truck, he had 11/12 packages in with the last one in his hand, and he just stopped and started following me around. I turn around and he vanishes completely. Had to reload. Never had any freezes though.

I've played 10 percent of SR2 on the PS3 and no problems so far. I'm also playing the original SR for the 360-- it froze once for me when i was just doing the escort activity and I was about to lose so I started driving really fast and smashing into walls, just crashed right before I ran into the wall. It's been ok since.

My game has frozen a few times when there is alot of bad guys on the screen all doing something. The framerate will slowdown until it eventually stops. I am at about 50%. The first mission it happened was the Sons of Samodi where you have to go into the hideouts and destroy the meth machines, There were alot of the gang all shooting at once and it froze as the level was complete. the second time was still with the sons of Samodi at the docks where you have to destroy the fish with drugs in them. The game didn't freeze this time but it took me four tries because the framerate was so slow that i kept getting killed because i couldn't do anything. How do you clear the Memory Cache on the 360? I have never done this. Mind you i have the old generation 360 not the new one with bug fixes and HDMI.

The game is full of glitches, so I wouldn't be surprised if it was the game.

SR1 had a ton of glitches and freezes. It's sad they haven't fixed these issues. I got so fed up with SR1 that I'm not getting SR2.

after I installed the disc to the xbox hard drive I haven't any more problems so far, mine only froze up during online co-op never any time else, I have learned to always keep it saved. As for other glitches I have seen them, cars getting stuck in the ground, and I ran into my friend's character while he was in the garage looking at cars, I was curious if I could move him as he was standing there in the garage and I moved him but after he got out of the garage he couldn't move even after killing him. I even seen a car get stuck in the ground straight up and down and wouldn't budge, tons of glitches but haven't had it freeze up again yet so try installing the disc see if that helps
