So here's a funny story
Played some Xbox over the weekend on my new softmod. Installed all my games (~53 or so) and moved over some games from my other console. One of these was [The Suffering: Ties That Bind] the sequel to the CLASSIC The Suffering (its actually pretty meh now but)
I was testing the game out, and when I tried to view the "Archives" (basically like LORE nuggets to read) and the console would hard lock. I'm like what the fuck, is my disc bad or what. So I put the disc into my unmodified unit and the game worked just fine. So I'm like ok, it must be my rip or console. My google-fu led me nowhere and I was getting sad because fuck me I wanted to eventually play this game.
Last night on a whim I google again and
come across a post on IGN from 2007 where apparently there was a shipped bug with this game where if you [ran the game at 480p] (a rarity back then) the game would actually hard lock when viewing the Archives. I bolted out of bed and immediately disabled all HD settings and fired the game up - sure enough, no hard crashes when viewing the books.
What the fuck, who ships this kind of bug LMAO
