My mistake....I just assumed you were using one of the updated rosters. I never heard much about freezing issues with the original game.

I'll try to clean my game out and see if that helps and I will delete my VIP file since I don't care about that anyway.

And to Danny I couldn't find that Carlos Joseph player you were talking about he wasn't in the free agent pool nor on a team. So you guys mean to tell me that on the original version of this game its not supposed to freeze??? ha ha that sucks for me then huh im using the old original stuff and still can't get it to work right. But im about to try to play the game over again where it froze and see what happens

I just started playing my Xbox copy again after some time away from it, and started experiencing way more freezing than ever before even with the original rosters. Took out the copy of 2K5 and placed in another and it's working great. I'm pretty sure my original copy of 2k5 has finally started to bite the dust, which is to be expected after hundreds of hours of play. Even though we're on different systems, I'd advise you to try another copy of the game and see if that helps. Sometimes discs have some wear and tear, especially if you bought the game used or have had the game since release. There really shouldn't be much freezing if you're using the original rosters. Try replacing your copy with a very clean one if you can...luckily 2k5 is one of the biggest bargains you can find anywhere.

True but I told him to test out the file at his friend's first because it may just be the saved file and NOT the disc because he said he started another franchise and simulated and hasnt had any problems.

I played a game in this same franchise today and I did not have a freeze. Hopefully I don't have anymore freezing

OK guys I haven't posted in a while but I had to get rid of my first copy of 2K5 cause I had three freezes in my second franchise. Well I just brought the game new and played a game yesterday with no freeze but today I was playing and then boom freeze again. This is a BRAND NEW copy of the game just opened yesterday, this is the only one of my games on PS2 that freezes. I guess i'll just have to retire from this game

Anybody have any idea of why it keeps freezing for me??? This copy of the game is brand new just opened yesterday so I have no idea what the problem is. The site that I brought it off of said they will ship me a new one so i'll try one last time with the new disc
