Have glitches or freezing issues?? Yes, you read it right! Every single 360 game I've played has either glitches or freezing issues? I'm a 360 owner but don't understand how some of these games get by Microsoft.

Gears of war- Lag, Freezing sometimes, texture pop ins at the beginning of each level

Halo 3- frame rate issues

Mass Effect- huge texture pop in issues.

Ninja Gaiden 2- freezing

Forza 2- pop ins with some texture issues

I'm not ranting on 360 either. I'm a 360 fellow but think after paying 400 for a console we deserve better treatment from Microsoft.

Those are just a few of our precious 360 games. seriously I don't understand why these things were never fixed.

I wish that were the case but my friends all have had the same issues. This is one of the new 360's.

Microsoft doesn't have a lot of control over the quality of its games, so unless it's your console, microsoft probably isn't to blame.

but doesn't every game have to go through some kind of test by Microsoft before it's released? I may be wrong but I thought I read that somewhere.

It's called "technical limitations". Games like GTA4, GeoW and ME stream their data from the disc. As a result you get texture pop-ins. It's either deal with the occasional pop-in or suffer through a lot of long loading screens.

Also, 360 games rarely freeze. If your games are freezing on a regular basis it means your console is about to RROD.

Never noticed any problems with Gears, but Mass Effect definitely has texture pop-in, and it is indeed a problem. On the other hand, I own a whole host of games I've never had any trouble at all with.

  • Culdcept Saga
  • Eternal Sonata
  • Kameo
  • Perfect Dark Zero
  • Enchanted Arms
  • Viva Pinata
To name a few.
