GTA IV Freezing on PlayStation 3?

i had the same problem with the game freezing on my 80gb PS3, I took advice of g4 and deleted the hard drive data and reinstalled it. Now it works fine.

Thanks for that.



It's a shame that the pig didn't lose Roger Waters really...

I thought the Floyd learnt their lesson with the pig at Battersea, or was Waters too cheap to have a few sharpshooters on hand?

No freezing here have a JPN 60gb purchased from ***n00b weblink removed*** Check it out

its not a rumor, it just hasn't happened to everybody. unfortunately, it did happen to me........... played for about 2 hours with no problem then the next few times i tried it froze after about 15 minutes. even tried uninstalling and reinstalling. no go.

I have an 80GB and it keeps freezin on me as well....it's not just the 40GB

I've got a 360 and ps3...decided to buy it on the ps3 as got more mates with a ps3. game has frozen twice now....once after the multiplayer tutorial and once partly through a mission. have clocked about 6 hours before experiencing freezing. I have a 40GB ps3.
When it freezes I have to switch the ps3 off and on again....

lanch 60gb ps3 upgraded to 250 gb only had 1 prb but not with game only with network i heard that it is manly 60gb ps3 that are having problems but in many forums that are saying upgraded hdd are not see if thay can sort it out on regards to 360 no problems at all

The one thing i am worried about is all the system crashes that sony has recieved from GTA iv disabling the dvd drives. On PS3.com in the forums many have said GTA 4 ruined their systems and due to this Sony is back ordering repairs of any consoles. now this is happeneing with the 40, 60, & 80 gig versions. I think i will stop playing GTA4 until a fix is presented. LONG LIVE PC GAMING!!!

Hi my partner got it and guess what it froze on his 60gb ps3 doing his head in so yes it is doing it maybe not on the 40gb and 80gb but it is doing it.

No probs here on a launch ps3. I had probs on my 360 though not gtaIV related just my third RROD. I am so glad I bought the ps3 version it would have sucked not being able to play for two weeks. I did actually have a prob with getting into multiplayer on my ps3 yesterday but I think that was a server issue not a ps3 issue. I think there are people experiencing problems but it is not related to a specific version or console for that matter. Look to rockstar to post a patch soon for both the 360 and ps3 to fix both versions.

I have the ps3 version and had no prob with up until tonite where it froze about 7-8 times i had to reboot the ps3 now for me it came not with the first mins of the came it came like 25 missions in....I can tell there is a prob cus also when u hit the ps button to either quit the game or turn the ps3 off it takes longer then it should and Beepes 4 times and just restarts...even though i hit shut down

my 60 gb ps3 keeps frezzing and i have done about 20 missions, it never froze before that and is so annoying

Cant believe it - Installed, and freezes at the STARTING NEW GAME screen. Re-installed and it worked, but stalled at the opening credits, and back to the STARTING NEW GAME sceen! Please help!!

To get past the STARTING NEW GAME screen i was stuck too, just disconnect the internet and then try
