Games Freezing (by 5 users)

Hi all,

Sometimes when in the middle of a game it just totally freezes without any message. I have cleaned the disk and everything and it doesn't work :(

Any help appreciated.

My Xbox360 freezes in the middle of some games. Even after shutting off the console and restarting the game again, it'll freeze in the same spot. It has done it with Need for Speed Carbon and the new Grand Theft Auto.

Hello everyone who has an Xbox 360!

Sorry had to say that. I don't know one person who has a 360 that this DOESN'T happen to.

Sometimes its a heating issue with your Xbox, sometimes its the game CD, sometimes its the xbox cache, sometimes its something else altogether.

Here is the support site page for screen freezes on the xbox 360, I hope this helps you guys...

Good luck!
