I played through the game TWICE and NEVER had a lock up...would be a shame if they scratched the disc and got screwed because of it.  Must be the 360 or the disc right?

Shit happens, dude.

@bhhawks78: I think you are missing the real problem, why have you played this game twice?

You're missing the point, was curious if it's a game issue or a physical issue.

I'm unable to see a problem there. "

so the game locked on a recent episode or something? I have to catch up on my ER

I played through it twice. All the sections the ER teams had trouble with aren't that bad if played properly. It's the side quests that make a repeated playthrough worthwhile. Not to mention the insane ending VJ/BR have in store.

2nd best game I've played this year /shrug    The only annoyingparts like the wall crawlers take almost no time if you have the shotgun and do it correctly or just spam the flamethrower they die stupid fast. "

Well, really, any section of any video game isn't a problem when played properly. "

Dude, shut up! There's a flamethrower? I literally ran through this game. I never got any of the infinite ammo weapons or the radio or anything else particularly exciting. I guess I should play it again as well and take my sweet time. "

I also beat this game twice, and one of those was a 100% run. All sidequests, all cards. I plan to beat it a third time when I finish with RDR and Burnout Paradise (watching Brad's unupgraded car plod along in the ER after playing hours of Burnout is the worst thing in the world).
 
It's really a pretty fun game overall, even with the rough spots. Especially if you run past all the zombies like I did on my second run. Makes it quicker and also makes it more intense since they can trap you so easily. Honestly, I'm with the guy above. This would for sure be my GOTY if Mass Effect 2 wasn't a 2010 release.
 
And yeah, seems like it's probably a disc issue. VJ didn't have any problems though, I wonder if they're using the same copy. If not, they could swap. If so, they could just buy a new one. Game is cheap as hell.

This gamelike my current goty (me2) is all about exploring all the content.  Frustrating/a little underwhelming if you just rush through it.  If you do every single little sidequest and such?  Amazing experience.  Running through this game without any infinite ammo weapons (flamethrower/shotgun/smg/magnum/fucking light saber/wrench/guitar/INFINITE RPG) is basically intentionally making the game not fun for yourself.  The whole point is that the lumberyard kinda sucks and you enjoy all the awesome weapons a million times more since you remember slogging through pistol only.   Even if you want to run through getting the weapons so wall ladies basically insta die is much much faster anyways.

I played through the game three times. It once got stuck on a loading screen, and that was after installing the game to the hard drive. Didn't happen again after that, though.
