mr.e Posted October 31, 2009 Share Posted October 31, 2009 (edited) Alright so heres the story... I bought EPLC yesterday from my local bestbuy,rushed home to play it ,popped the disc in my xbox 360 and installed the game to my harddrive. I booted up the game once it was done installing and chose ballad of gay tony....heres where my problem begins. At first right after the guy mentions hes a gun club member in the first scene the game automatically froze. I reset the game and got a little further into the first cutscene and the same thing happend...I inspected the disc and noticed a huge blotch on it. I got upset and returned the game to best buy and got another copy...just got back home and looked at the disc and it has the same exact blotch as the other. Does anybody else have the same blotch on there disc? Or maybe its just a bad batch from bestbuy.. Help! Btw heres a pic Edited October 31, 2009 by mr.e ~ Proud Supporter of the Child's Play Charity! | GTANET + Child's Play ~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr.e Posted October 31, 2009 Author Share Posted October 31, 2009 Oh NOW I Can see. Yeah, Take it back and check it before you take a new one Thanks...i was just trying to make sure if it was supposed to be there or not (which would have been very weird) I guess my best buy had gotten bad batches or something...Thats the 2nd copy in a row with the same exact spot on it. ~ Proud Supporter of the Child's Play Charity! | GTANET + Child's Play ~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nightwing 0613 Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 Are you talking about that big blotch that takes almost half the disc? Cuz i got mine from Best Buy as well, but i haven't had any problems with it whatsoever. No freezing, nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just spoke to somebody else who has the disc and they said that they didnt have that on there disc...I really really hope its not my 360. ~ Proud Supporter of the Child's Play Charity! | GTANET + Child's Play ~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darkgamr Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 That looks like it could have been water damage to your store's shipment, which is some bad luck. Glad you've got it working now though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah i was thinking about just doing that...Im not going to go through the same sh*t a 3rd time. I just tried it again but this time i skipped the 1st cutscene and played for about 40 seconds before it froze during actual gameplay. I also tried emailing R* then i tried calling there customer support but it was taking too damn long so i just hung up lol. ~ Proud Supporter of the Child's Play Charity! | GTANET + Child's Play ~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pizza is good Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 Hmm, well come on man wtf how is it that you've gotten 3 copies and they all do the same thing? There's something up with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darkgamr Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 Also, when 360's die, they don't get progressively worse. Prolonged freezing of one game must be a different issue.360s freeze once or twice then immediately red ring. I would know, it's happened to me twice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
