Shockwave/bug in the game

It has more than 2 weeks now that I've been having problems with the game every time when I start loading the game or during. It shows a yellow bar showing that there's a problem with shockwave. I already have shockwave installed. Could you fix the problem please? I don't know anything that has to to with the computer. So please don't send me any pc talk.

Why does the game crags and/or not load once I've purchased the Boost option??

Because that way they get more of your coins and time, which translates to more money for them. It could be a bug in their system though, so try contacting them if possible.

HOW DO I STOP SHOCKWAVE PLUG ON CASTLVILLE 0N FACEBOOK FROM CRASHING ALL THE TIME

Perhaps you try to reinstall the program. When programs start acting strange, most of the time there is a bug responsible. When a little glitch caused only one bit to one byte to change on the main memory or hard disk, the error will come back every time you start the program. Only reinstalling can bring help. Not sure a bug is causing this, but it is a way to find out if it was.

NHL 12 freezes when trying to substitute a created team in GM Mode

Hi, the reason why the game keeps freezing at that certain point is most likely due to a bug in the game. I know NHL 12 use to have freezing issues that weren't patched. Since the game is outdated there is no fix for this issue. I would recommend maybe updating to a newer version of the game (NHL 17 etc.) and playing from there.

Playing MLB the Show on PS3. Game loads fine, franchise I've been playing loads fine. But once I try to play a game, bar starts as game loads then game cuts off and goes to main PS3 screen.

Is your CD dirty or does it have any cracks? It might just be the problem. Otherwise, it could be corrupt game data. Clean the disc, if it still doesn't work I'd try deleting the game utility data and re-downloading it. Hope this helps in some way or another.

I am unable to load my saved game. My sister can't on her profile either. I just sits on the "Loading <Area Name> screen. Any thoughts?

It sounds like either the game is bugged, and you may have the displeasure of starting again. Or the disc might be dirty and/or have a hairline scratch across valuable data.

Try taking it to a shop that offers a layer skimming service, such as Blockbuster or Game. They will "skim" a layer from the disc that will make it seem brand new.

And try using a lens cleaner on your Xbox, it might just be really filthy inside. I'd recommend using a lens cleaner at least 1-2 times per week, depending on how often you use it.

I hope this is of some help to you! =)

I started up Modern warfare 2 when i bought it and it said trophys not able to load this game will quit and all you can say is ok.i tried to load assasins creed 2 but the same thing happened it says...

Here’s what’s going on right now: something with the PS3’s internal clock has borked in some pre-slim models. This is not a PSN issue; it has to do with your PS3’s clock. This clock is NOT related to the OS clock. It seems to be a leap year bug. Setting your clock ahead will do nothing. All PS3s around the world were affected at the exact same time.
Does this affect me?
-If you have a Slim PS3, you’re good to go. Continue playing it as normal.
-If you have a “fat” PS3, you may be affected. Some fat PS3s have worked ok, but it seems a good majority have been bugged.
What does this bug mean?
-If affected, your date and time has been set to a random past date. This prevents you from signing into PSN, playing any PSN games, or using any DLC. Your trophies will also not display correctly or be able to sync.
How do I fix it?
-You can’t. Even if you don’t sign into PSN, it won’t help. This is a hardware issue.
So, what do I do?
-Wait 24 hours. Other products that have had similar bugs have corrected themselves after the “bugged” day. On Monday around 6pm central time, all PS3s will automatically correct themselves…maybe.
-If that doesn’t work, we’ll need a firmware update from Sony, which should be a pretty important priority for them right now.
Did I lose my data/themes/etc?
Your save data/games/dlc/themes are fine. They’ll be fixed when the PS3 is fixed. Trophies are uncertain right now, but they’ll be fine if you’ve synced them before the PS3 was bugged. Unsynced trophies are an unknown right now.
If I have a bugged PS3, can I still use it?
It’s probably not a good idea, as I have no idea what will happen to the trophies you earn during the bugged time. Movies/media will work fine.
