Sigh, is there anything that can resolve this?

Did you mod your save?

[Insane JIC]

Have you installed the game to your hard drive?

Hi Sephiroth! Thanks for the reply..

No i didn't MOD my save..and i even started a New game on an entirely new HD just for this..and still the same thing happens...

I've Installed the game on the HD then when it froze i uninstalled the game, cleared the game cache and played the game straight from the DVD (this is when i played a NEW game from the start on a new HD to verify if my HD is defective or my Save game is corrupted)..still the same thing happens at the exact same event (ODIN first summon)

If you look at the site on my first post, you'll be shocked on how many people are experiencing this issue (on some people, their game froze when their on Disc 3) and then Microsoft and Square enix is ALWAYS blaming the issue on the "Scratched Disk" or faulty console...jeez, my XBOX 360S is brand new US version and ALL my other Games are working without issues even if i play 8-12 hrs a day (i always install my games on the HD to prevent scratches on my DVD and to prolong the usability of my DVD drive).Oh and by the way my copy of FFXIII is brand NEW..and i even had tried to return the game to the shop to exchange for another NEW copy and the same thing happens..AAAAAAGHH! i didn't even reached Disc 2 damn it!!!!

Hey dude,

Thanks for the reply...please see my previous post in response to sephiroth's question...
I really do hope that none of you guys have experienced this issue like i did

TBH. FFXIII is a very buggy game.

I had a new XBOX360 as well myself, and my controller was obviously new as well because of this. It worked fine in EVERY game, but in FFXIII it would randomly make the character stop running when holding the LS button.

After buying a new controller it worked like normal.
The same controller that was having issues in FFXIII works perfect with all other games.


While I don't know how we can solve your freezing; I do have an idea that might help you. If you upload your Save File, I (or someone else), can load it and continue past that point for you, then Save again -after- the freezing part, and reupload it for you.

Hi ryudo,

Thanks for the reply man! And if you ca load my game and kill those f*cking Uhlans for me so i could get past the freezing i would reaaaally appreciate it dude!

MOD OR NOT same thing happens to me..

Attached is my MODDED save game..i didn't have the UNMODDED since i already deleted those since im so pissed..

Thanks in advance guys!
