I'm really enjoying this game...when it works! I'm playing on PC and for some weird reason the game just stops loading. About 5 times I'll be driving or walking around then just fall into nothingness. When I try and reload, nothing. When I try and meet Amanda instead of a cutscene...nothing, just black again. I've played plenty of games that crash or lock up but never come across a game that just stops steaming or loading like this. It's flat out ruining the game and making some missions literally unplayable. Is anyone else running into bugs or am I just unlucky?

Playing 360 version only bug I've had is every so often clothes vendors and the wardrobe become inaccessible to me. Which seems to be fixed by exiting the game and rebooting.

I was having the same issue last night, seems like I've fixed it by moving the game off my SSD and onto my old harddrive. Might be just lucky, but if you are running it on an SSD it might be worth a try.

Runs fine for me on SSD. 22 hours with only one CTD, and a couple of bugs. Maybe try to verify the integrity of the game cache
