This problem is becoming very frustrating. Other gamers used to think you were quitting early but that's not the case. I haven't spoken to anyone whose xbox HASN'T frozen. I stand mine up, open the window, put the fan on but still it crashes. If this was a car, people would be asking for refunds in their droves. It's not just a problem with my Xbox360, it's everyone's so what is the problem?
i think its the ea servers. i havnt ever had it frez or lock up in single player after like 70 hours
but its locks up on live. but more often than locking up. my sound freaks out with loud buzzing sound.. to where it drowns out the game. the only way two fix it is to turn the xbox off and relogin.
agian this problem has never happened in single player.
Well it froze up on me to day as I was crashing it totally locked up cant seem to get those curves down yet.lol
This game freezes once in a while on me.. It's definitely online only though, because in single player, theres no issue. I also noticed my sound sometimes get distorted, but only once in every 20 races I might be in.. It usually goes away after 10 seconds.
I wouldn't be surprised if this is all server related.. You can go on Battlefield 2 and have it crash on you just as much as it does on Burnout

Burnout Renvenge _demo_ is ROCK SOLID. But Burnout Retail FREEZES consistently in single player mode!!!!
I had a few others freeze besides burnout revenge, gta once in awhile, and full auto that game freezes all the time though compair to burnout usually on burnout its when I wreck my car or when I get award when it freezes.
It happened to me offline on "Jump on the Jam" level after an hour or so of playing. It froze twice online. Maybe for offline it's a sign of overheating, maybe just minor.
EDIT: The KnowledgeBase article says nothing about overheating. Maybe a CD problem? Nahh, if lots are having this freezing problem it won't be.
Ok, so I am finding that the issue only occurs in the Burnout Retail version. And only when I host matches (Race). The hard freeze ('hard' meaning I am unable to get to the Dashboard) usually occurrs on the 2nd last or last lap (and once on the results page) and unfortuately causes me to drop a huge amount in rank :(
Has there actually been any word from MS or Criterion Games (I have been unable to find anything) about this bug? It's really freaking annoying! >.<
i fixed the freezing issue on my 360
360 started freezing for no reason after 2 minutes after start up no matter what i was doing, even when i removed my hard drive it froze the same. So my last ditch attempt before sending it off was to format the hard disk thinking it was pointless. to my suprise it completly fixed my freezing issue!! i'm no xbox expert so i'l leave it to you guys to tell me why it worked when it was freezing with the hard drive removed. I think its got something do with my gamer tag???
