    Hi There... 
     
    Since I started playing Case Zero it feels as if the game pretty much locks up when I come to save my game - saving seems to take an age in comparison to most games. Okay, perhaps not quite an age, but it feels like I'm saving to floppy drive over here. 
     
    Once I've even had the game just return to the main menu of it's own accord following me saving. 
     
    Anyone else have a similar experience?

    Same issue.  You know I bet it has to do with cloud data storage, or some other local workaround to support Dead Rising 2 profile importing securely.

    Yeah, this is definitely the case for me as well.  It is kinda disconcerting to have it just lock the screen for a time while it saves. Maybe this is just a temporary thing and will be fixed in the full game.

    That's weird. I always thought the savetimes were fast. Maybe it's your 360 version? 
    I have first gen Arcade with a HDMI port(don't know about the motherboard. Jester maybe?)

    I feel the menus are a bit slow to actually move around, and start the act of saving, but once there, it doesn't take too long.  Of course, since your game is stored on the same device as the save files, the system can't read one and write the other at the exact same time.  I notice this sort of thing when I play games installed to the hard drive as well.  Game load times are faster, but save times are longer.
