please, please......that this game won't have as many problems as all these xbox games have...freezing in the middle of the game;locking your xbox and forcing you to restart the game like in burnout revenge...wow..i have gone through 4 xbox's. Its all the same. I really hope that in the next year or so they fix all the problems with these games and xbox live. I've owned almost every console that has come out (popular ones) and I have never seen a console with so many problems. I'm sure though that Mister Cheif will handle his business when he comes through!

Thats what happens when you rush them. So case in point, Dont rush them.

Don't get me wrong, I bought my 360 at best buy with warrenty, and they have been splendid about giving me another. The truth of the matter was, I gave an xbox back pissed off about my game freezing (burnout revenge) and afterwards realized it was just the game when you would play it online. I just have 2 games, oblivion and burnout. Oblivion has impossible load times, but it would only freeze once in a blue moon. But this burnout revenge is intollerable. Truth is though, I have talked with other gamers online and they said that there game freezes up as well. That part that is messed up is that when the game freezes, the whole entire xbox freezes and you can't do anything, you HAVE to restart it.

Halo 3 will be the greatest FPS in the world when it comes out...(IMO) and the greatest Multiplayer. I'm sure Bungie is well aware that they have to create a better multiplayer than halo 2, and thats going to be no easy task. Plus Modders and Glitches. I rather bungie take its time and do what it must. One great game can make millions of people buy an xbox. I swear when halo 2 was about to come out, I saw xbox's everywhere sold out. And thats several years after original xbox came out...

I had my original thompson drive xbox from about when the xbox first came out (a few months after, actually) up until a few months before the 360 came out. sure it froze and locked up on me a few times, but it never actually broke.

my xbox 360 is the same. i got a launch day 360 and sometimes it overheats it seems, but it has only happened once in the last 3 or 4 months since i put a cookie sheet under it to allow for better ventilation. it's still going strong.

after like 2 weeks of trying to move up in rank in this game burout revenge, it freezes three times, and during the process, I had to obvioulsy quit the game. 2 weeks of moving up in rank down the drain, without me even loosing a race once. This game is going back to gamestop. I heard it was a problem with the EA servers. Man they are garbage....

Same here. I have had zero problems with Halo 2. No freezing, no nothing. This may be due in part to me having a newer XBOX that doesn't overheat. I think it is the latest version. Hmm.

I think Bungie has learned from the few mistakes that they made, they will not rush Halo 3.

i'm sure they will take this in mind and they are working on it especially for you i'm also sure that it wasn't an accident to have the games freeze, no really... they did it on purpose to annoy you... also for the record none of my halo games have ever froze


The 360 emulation software sint all that great. My game doesnt lag a ton, but it does have a few more problems to add to the list. I have had freezing, maps wont load for matches, etc.

I have a solution to that also. KEEP YOUR OLD XBOX. Anyone that throws out their XBOX after they get a 360 is a complete and utter moron, keep it. What if your 360 fails? You just going to sit around doing nothing and wait for Microsoft to replace it? Keep your XBOX, people.
