I just downloaded the full game from xbox live, and its updated and everything, and literally every 5 minutes it freezes and i must manually turn of my xbox. I've deleted it and I am redownloading it now, so this better work.
but i don't know what I'm gonna do if this doesn't fix it. I cant get my money back, and I just really want to play the freakin game
@jpmcruiser95 same thing except i bought it at walmart it freezes at various times sometimes at 5 mins other times ingame for 25-30 mins into the fucking game. and of course the minority bitches at walmart refuse to give me my money back! Cheap Bastards.
I have completed gta 4 4 times now with my '07 xbox elite and never had this kinda issue. im no fanboy but im glad i didnt have to go through this shit!
Just yesterday, my Xbox started freezing. None of the home remedies worked. But is it just coincidence that my console is freezing now that Microsoft came out with the new model? I think not.
Think about it. Every few weeks there's an update that you MUST upload. Is it possible that Microsoft is secretly uploading some sort of virus? Hence, forcing us to buy the new model.
just wanted to know my girl is having a problem with her xbox freezing the people at xbox are retarded they say it could of been a courpt file because she downloaded gears of war online saints row 2 and gta 4 instead of the on the harddrive but it lets her sign in and when she takes the hardrive out nutting happens theres no freezing can any 1 help me with my problem thanks :)
i don't want to be cocky but in that movie it seems lik the xbox still has te old frimware that could have been the problem because when gta 4 came out the whole new dashboard was there
I cleared all my gta4 data and i even stopped using cheat codes and saving after deleteing everything. It STILL freezes. My disc is in new condition. Rockstar MUST patch this asap!
every time i play gta 4 eventually it freezes at a later point and the wierd thing is when im always in a car driving it freezes there and when im still its normal
I never mentioned it but I just traded in my 360 for a new arcade version right after I filmed this in may of last year. Should be all happy now, right? Got my first red rings yesterday on the arcade 360 with a mfr's date of 3/08. Oh well, I needed a gaming break anyway.
GTA isn't really meant to run off the cd as the laser runs flat out just trying to stream everything, every second just streaming. So what i did was looked at what the PS3 does and i saw that the HDD runs moost of it the laser may turn on every now and then. So what i did is installed it on the xbox HDD and it runs just like the PS3 nice and smooth and to be honest i'm not coping any loding time or frame rate killers, it runs perfectly fine on the HDD for me.
man this happens to me can u fix it and i have enetered no cheats the entire game so far GTA IV always frezzes gets rly annyoin -.- but halo 3 is perfectly fine man and ive only had GTA IV one week but halo 3 ive had for ever can u fix this????
but i think this happens because of the new dashboard up date i got the game 2 days ago and it was working fine but yesterday my freind go me this magazine demo and it had the update on it so i downloaded it and as soon as i started playing it started freezing
put it on ur hardrive all mine works fine like cod5 works fine never freezes gta always does even with a new game but it fixed when it is on my harddrive
mine worked fine some time but when i just play abbout 1-2 hours feezes i just wanna know is it the game or the console it freezes on xbox 360 on ps 3 i dont have ps 3 but even somebody has freezed on ps 3
My game freezes as well. It seems like it just doesn't render or load anything completely when getting to different parts of the city. The game freezes but I'm still able to pop up the dashboard and all unlike some other games that freeze the whole console.
for me it froze 5 times until i finished the game.When i finished the game ewry now and then i went on the story compleat load to have some fun and it feezes ewry 5 min now.But if i go on my olders load or start the game over it never frezes only when i pass the game it freezes ewry 5 min
Over at the GTA IV forums there's a popular, useful thread about GTA IV freezing on the Xbox 360 after the NXE update. It's entitled "Widespread Recent GTA IV Freezing (360 Users)" if you want to google it since Youtube won't do links.
That's the EXACT same thing that keeps happening to me. I'm having trouble clearing Elizabeth's/Jacob's misison becuase it's so damn long. Finally after I outran the Feds, the game froze and I was pissed. This seriously needs to get patched. I've already tried getting a new 360 AND game.

GUYZ U NEED TO CHILL OKAY? it keeps freezing coz u got an xbox , this happened to my xbox i swear it was fucked up it kept happening like crazy even in other games it just kept freezing and when i went to microsoft they told me to shove it up ma ass so thats why i bought the ps3 which is fucking great? i mean the ps3 is so slik it handles everything easily and professionaly not the 360 , guyz a tip of advice either go to microsoft or buy a ps3 i mean all of us americans r freaking rich
my first 360 started to freeze up mainly with gears but transfered to other games too is from over use i think if u play the shit out of a console ur asking for problems u might wanna look into returning it if u can
its because rockstar have crammed in to much stuff, but its a good thing for me, because mine hasn't froze at all, and i have had it since the release date.
you must be doing it wrong. it doesnt fix the problem anyway i have found, only made GTA4 work for another day for me. My 360 has now got the red ring of death. suprise! suprise!
lmao fag the ps2 has had much more probs with gtaIV then the 360. why dont you follow up on your facts before spouting off bout the lame ps3. stupid fanboy
I can't even get that far, I want to play this game so badly and it killed my xbox, seriously why did this happen this game is so much fun and now it's dead and it took cod4 and ao2 with it which were what I was going to use to take my aggression out about this because this sucks but not only are they not nearly as much fun to me after playing GTA, they freeze too just later than GTA does. Never had a problem before playing this game. This is ridiculous on all counts.
same dam thing even the same games wtf man im played for like 4 hours i wwas sooo happy then it fuckin freezes after 5 calls to micro and 3 calls to rockstar still happens!!!
SAME! my 360 keeps freezing randomly with gta4 ONLY. barely ever freezes with any of my other games like bioshock, halo 3, turok, nba 2k8. none ever freeze ever...but gta IV freezes everytime i play it randomly. sometimes ill play 10minutes then it will freeze, then sometimes it will freeze at the beginning with that hot girl suckin a lollipop.
i finaly got my copy yesterday and was playing it fine. but today i turned my xbox on and it took a while to load so a thought it hadnt saved properly but it finaly loaded and froze straight away i crn't even got out of the safe house, so i tryed without my hard drive connected but the same thing happend yet i can still hear sound even though my xbox has froze out. IM P*SSED OFF
