When I first setup the Slim on Friday, the dashboard was running slow and kind of laggy. Ever since that point, it has been running lag free. Maybe the system needed to be greased up a bit to get started. LOL!

 Re: New Xbox 360
 
 I was about to tell you, it is the game. Not your new 360, has happened to me a few times in the past. Exactly the same scenario.my slim froze up on me yesterday ! i was playing some RDR, completing a mission down in mexico. i was on the train, firing the gatling gun when all of a sudden my whole game locked up. i have noticed in other missions, when using the gatling gun, the game did lag a bit, but it was ever so slightly. ! i was playing some RDR, completing a mission down in mexico. i was on the train, firing the gatling gun when all of a sudden my whole game locked up. i have noticed in other missions, when using the gatling gun, the game did lag a bit, but it was ever so slightly.
 
 i am chalking this up to too much action going on at one time. of course i was a bit scared by this, but i restarted and successfully played through the mission.
 
 not sure what made it freeze, but my setup isn't to blame. proper air flow on all sides of the system, system is laying flat, game is installed to the hard drive, house has central air so nothing gets hot inside the room my 360 is in.
 
 other than this hiccup, loving the system!
 
 EDIT* - after making this post i searched google for RDR and freezing issues. looks like some folks have had this issue as well.Comment

 Re: New Xbox 360
 
 Froze my character up last night trying to pick some plants 
 
 Everything else was in full interaction. Even had a coyote chase a skunk and jumped on it when it caught it, started eating it, then it walked off... other ones came and started eating on it too, two of them walked right by me like i wasnt there, didnt even bark at me. I had to reload the game, I could pan the camera but couldnt move my character.Comment

 Re: New Xbox 360
 
 LOL strange glitch there. I heard RDR was not as polished as their past games. Which was one of the small knocks RDR did get from review sites. I guess these freeze lock ups is one of those.Froze my character up last night trying to pick some plants

 I know I stayed on my slim all weekend and played tons of games and the only freeze I got was in RDRComment

 Re: New Xbox 360
 
 The only issue I had with the system was thinking I had some kind of an anomaly because the thing sounded like an aviation design standing veritcal.
 
 Horizontal and I get a pretty quiet buzz and im quite happy. The flash drive stick was a seemless transfer for my games and my profile and I love that sound it makes when you turn the system on hitting the button on the console with your fingerComment

 Re: New Xbox 360
 
 so when I transfer everything to the new HD with a flash drive, do I just copy my profile over or do I need to recover my gt?Jesus saves

 I like how how it gives us a warning now instead of just dying. I just picked mine up this morning. I have it lying down on the top of my entertainment center.
 
 Edit: it actually protects it self from overheating... sorta like a laptop.My ArtworkComment
