Massive Slowdown in Grid - XBOX 360 - Video included

Buddah86 · 28-05-2008, 02:13 PM

Hi,

i bought the game today, and its nice.

It looks great and the controls are OK.

BUT

I have massive slowdowns, (pauses) in Race by sometimes over 1 Second.

i have the new Xbox Premium with HDMI and Benq Drive and (probably) Falcon CPU.

here is the video i've made:

Any Idea whats going on?

BTW: Yes, its the orignal and no copy.

thats exactly what is happening with mine although not as frequent.

same 360 console as yours (falcon with BenQ drive). i really wold like a solution to this soon as the game is totally unplayable with this pausing/freezing issue.

Buddah86 · 28-05-2008, 02:21 PM

Oh damn.

Good to hear, im not alone with this.

Its unplayable Yes, especially the first Lamborghini Race.

What we can do now?

try disconnecting the HDD and see if this solves the issue (i have not tried it yet) if so this could be the signs of a faulty HDD. the replays are cached to the HDD as you are playing and the pause could be the repaly save hitting a bad sector or something causing the game to pause.

its just a thought.
