Forum:I've been frozen.

Hi. I've had fallout 3 (for 360) since it came out and its been freezing up almost the whole time. i manage to play by saving literally every two minutes but its getting annoying. has this happened to anyone else? i know it has to be the disc (which is unscratched) because it only happens to fallout. Also every once in awhile (im guessing) when i play to long the images on the screen start to stretch as if made of rubber and when i turn my character the stretches stretch more. has this happened before? if anyone has any answers they would be greatly appreciated.

What kind of hard drive do u have? fallout 3 takes up a lot of space and its rlly complicated graphics. idk just a suggestion

how long have you had the 360,i have fallout on xbox too,have actually had 3 freezes where only way to resolve was turn off/on.

sounds like your xbox's gpu is overheating severely,have you had anything at all like that before??(i know uve said but....,over-heat is a common cause of graphical artifacts That stretching thing is most unusual,never seen that--Bluemax 18:26, 28 January 2009 (UTC)

I've had F3 freeze up my 360 way more than any other game, but not so often that I compulsively save nor have I had any stretching. It has worked significantly better since I installed it on the hard drive, probably since it runs cooler. It only ever freezes on me while in a loading screen and I have to restart the console, but it has not corrupted any data.--JiNX Bloodfang 16:02, 29 January 2009 (UTC)
