Castlevania: LoS -- Every kill freezes the game.

Here's some video of a freezing problem in Castlevania: Lords of Shadow (Xbox 360).

(Sorry for the quality, I'm playing with one hand and holding the iPhone in my other.)

As you can see, ANY kill Gabriel makes freezes the game for more than just a flashy finish.

Also, to dispel the rumor that this only applies to finishers, you can see that any type of kill has the same effect.

Notice though that the one ghoul Captain Picard kills causes no slowdown.

Steps I've taken to attempt to remedy this:

-Clear cache
-Put profile on a USB
-Install game to HDD
-Keep playing to Disc 2
-My copy of the game is from Gamefly, not a review copy

My guess is that the game is stopping to run a check if I've just unlocked an achievement (such as Experienced), since this didn't become a permanent thing until literally right after I earned that one.

Such a shame for an otherwise excellent game...

[GamePointStation]

what's a name of this game?....If you know any other game for this type of the gaming actions....

[NathanWubs]

@runecrafter753 probably dead. It could be that the original account owner, saw this video and told him to stop. As the original Garudoh, left the channel too these two people to upload more game music, in order. Which they did not do.

[Shtekenzi]

they totally stole the idea for this character from mortal kombat's scorpion !!!

[runecrafter753]

Not to be rude but is he dead or just plain busy cause it says he hasn't made a new video in quite some time

[chaturga13]

[xGhostelx]

This is fixed now for 360. Sorry haters/fanboys.

[DonDiego500000]

I bought PS3 version, but I still can't play it cause I don't have an PS3 because I don't wanna buy one that will ylod on me.

[mistahsingh]

@thefriendsociety True, I wish they kept making MetroidVania.

[mistahsingh]

@thugleoneo This is a lie since its pretty much accepted the Xbox version of this game shits the bed constantly. Nice try fanboy.

[mistahsingh]

And that's another reason you don't get an AssBox360

[bobafett124cp]

[CMOODO]

god

[BryantGodofAwesome]

@oktny not really seeing that i only need one disc to play it on my ps3 and it has froze on any game yet AND im still on my first and only ps3

[oktny]

@BryantGodofAwesome That's not it. I have the game for an X360, but this problem isn't happening to me. So... the "this is what you get for a game for x-box" comment was kind of a fail from the guy.

[BryantGodofAwesome]

@oktny damn straight ps3 ftw

[xbox360guy09]

dude how do you move the statues?

[thugleoneo]

If you have the Halo Xbox, send an email and ill spill u the beans! All i want is a simple..."Thanks!..ur the coolest". (And it will NOT void ur warranty). I ran into a form of "debug" by accident. Trust me...u wont find it on here Youtube either! Only me and a circle of my nerdy buddies know the code!

[thugleoneo]

But i also have the Halo Edition 360, which runs much smoother and processes data at a much faster rate. (tweeking of course...NO MODS). Theres a simple secret to the Halo 360 that very few know. Its upgradable...w/out any mods at all! Lets just say ur graphics will be on steroids!

[thugleoneo]

I have the limited edition on the xbox 360 and ps3. I played both of them on each system. The only thing i didnt like was the ps3 crappy framerate, which froze up numerous times and not even a single hiccup on my xbox 360! (the God of all consoles!)

[OriginalZero]

from what I've heard, thats normal on the 360 version. not sure why, but it probably has something to do with the engine being developed for the ps3 first them ported over. but idk.

@garudoh

I suggest to clear system cache of your xbox hdd. I had similar problems with Red Dead Redemption - fps was wery low in towns - after clearing system cache problem disapeared - same here - I'm playing C-vania now and it run OK for me.
