Wtf! Keeps Locking Up My Xbox!
« on: September 02, 2006, 11:30:00 PM »

The demo made my box lock up at random times. I was hoping that the full game would fix this but its not the case!

I have 10 games, all which play  flawlessly on my console, i have beaten dead rising many times, played countless hours on GRAW, and never had a problem with my console locking up completely like saints row causes it to.  I hope they fix the problem.l

I don't think it's your box. Some games just seem to lock up for some people. My box is surviving nicely and the only games that have ever locked up on me were Oblivion, PDZ and now Saints Row. I know it's not an overheating problem because for some reason for me, it always seemed to happen in the first 20 minutes of play, as soon as it froze, I restarted and got hours of play before it would do it again.

It seems to be a random lockup and it's just buggy code.
Hopefully the patch will fix it for you. They say they're working on it...

It's happened to me too. I just picked up the game today, and it's frozen on me twice now  mad.gif

This is the 1st game that has ever locked up on me and I know it's not my 360 over heating cos it's only been on for ~20mins before it has locked.

I'm going to return it tomorrow and see how a replacement works out.

Mine has locked up on me like 3-4 times. It really sucks. Madden froze on me a few times as well. 360 is only like 4 months old.

Hey xGKx, with that money you have saved from DLing your game, maybe you should buy a bigger harddrive ;-)

I'm just curious if you have tried playing with the network cable unplugged.  My saints row locked up if I try to do something on live at the very begining when it is still loading up initially.

I had the same problem so I unplugged my USB wi-fi and it seems sweet now.

This happens to me too, so fucking annoying I haven't even got past the court room mission (the VERY first mission!!) without locking up completely...

GOD DAMN I want to play this game so bad
