Apparently, what I experienced the other day was not knew nor isolated. I was playing
Bully: Scholarship Edition on my Xbox 360 Elite, when the game just froze up after completing the mission to peg the football players on the field. Well,
Next-Gen has a piece that states that Bully is having frame rate, freezing and audio glitches in the edition that shipped. Apparently
Rockstar is "horrified" at the issues, but the game is a port from the Playstation 2, so I'm not surprised. The statement from Sam Houser of Rockstar:
It appears that some older 360s are experiencing framerate issues, freezes and other problems. You have our word that we never experienced any of this in QA - in any of our offices or at Microsoft.
I am horrified, and we are now working around the clock to rectify this situation. Thanks to Neo-Gaf for bringing this matter to our attention. We love our games and put a huge amount of energy and care into making them all that they can be. We would never shove anything out the door - we never have and never will. We apologise to everyone affected for the inconvenience.
Respectfully, Sam Houser
