(mlb 2K7 worked perfect prior to patch, post patch the game would lock up in the 6th inning) LOL, as long as the patches aren’t 2K style patches, which ruined games for me.

However, I had a lock-up when I finished the multiplayer training section which required a hard reboot. Like Brian said, I hope we see some patches (oops, I mean updates) for this game as it's looking like it is somewhat buggy. I got past the intro movie and played for a while without incident.

Within the first 5 hours of play on the 360: * At least one hard system lockup (required pressing power button) * One black loading screen that never loaded (waited over 5 minutes) required power off * Twice, tried pressing the Y button to become a passenger. The door wouldn't open. Re-situated and then tried again only to jack the car. * The game spontaneously went into online mode and then back out of it on its own (I even heard someone's voice over the speakers) * Generally sluggish behavior (pressing buttons doesn't always register) So, yes, GTA 4 is buggy. Let's hope they can push some updates from Xbox live. I can confirm this. Within the first 5 hours of play on the 360:

I don't know why that is. I swear everyone but my gets away without an ID. I've been asked every single time I go. Bestbuy even has those pop ups when they scan an M game that like say in caps...

Today in school I'm sitting there and I get a text from him flipping out because GTA is freezing on his system :) I told him to try to clear his cache (meh MAY help) and if not he's going to have to bring it back to gamestop. Woo... Yea I got that same error in Forza when I picked it up. You just bring it into gamestop and they give you a new copy, it takes around 5 minutes. @Al Zamora - I know Hunter from school and what he is saying is legit.
