I've just reached Syria and in the first cutscene where you regroup with Chloe and Cutter the cutscene would freeze but the audio would still play. The cutscene would then fast forward in attempt to catch up to the audio. It's pretty severe and I don't want to continue playing if the issue persists. Has anyone else experienced this? I'm playing on a 80gb fat PS3 by the way.

Do you have a fat boy PS3? If you do, it could be an upcoming sign of the YLOD. That's what happened to me during 2 of my 4 YLODs.

Oh I see that you do have a fattie. Does it start blowing real hard and making more noise than usual?

Not with UC3 I haven't. Something incredibly similar happened to me with UC2 though. I deleted the install and re-downloaded the patches and it worked. Don't know if it was related or just coincidence, either way it was gone after that. This was all on a Slim by the way.

Sorry that I can't be of much help.

No not really. I hope it isn't YLOD because I'm fairly sure my warranty is up.
