    That's pretty bad. I only play it on the PC so strongly resisting the urge to make some sort of elitist comment here.

    Have you got one of the older PS3s?

    The framerate thing is an oddity.

    You see my first 20 odd hours suffered no issue even with autosave on but as i delved deeper into the game it became an issue in parts. I noticed it only happened here and there when it was saving and thus only lasted 20 or so seconds.

    Ever since turning autosave off though it's been fine,although sometimes if i enter a major hold it will still be unpredictable. I find (and tbh this is silly) if you enter a city late at night when everyones sleeping it loads as normal but if it's between 7 and 11 am with everyone walking to shops it loads really slow lol i know thats crazy but i swear it happens.

    Also had odd occurrences where theres like a whole city walking about in the same location for 30 seconds before dispersing to shops/bars/ect.

    By no means a game breaker though as it's rare that it will last much more than 30 odd seconds.

    Apparently a common bug, the patch has created just as much problems as it fixed apparently..

    I must be so jammy honestly. I've only had 1 bug in all the hours I've spent in Skyrim and that was a whole city conversing at once in a tiny stairwell of a building in whitehall LOL There was about 30 NPC's just clambering all over each other and chatting.

    Now that av said that i bet i get a game killer tonight. (*goes to back up his saves)

    Mine is an old launch 60 gig so maybe the older models are actually built better? Lol it was the same in RDR I never had any issues on that and the shimmer/haggles where never there. :O

    Dead odd that some get bugs yet others don't. What is even odder is you can have no bugs at all while loads do yet you get tons when a patch comes out. Hate that.

    Daedric armour is epic, the daedric quests are probably the best aswell.
    Btw the Dark brotherhood ending was cruel man.
