Complain about Games and Bugs here.

If you want, complain about stuff involving games here. Nobody will do anything about it, but it does you good to get stuff off your chest.
mplaining:

GTA: San Andreas and the many, many bugs that are associated with it (PC)

Bugs encountered so far, according to forums:

Sound Problems, where a roaring noise is heard contineously (emphasized normal sound?) once exiting the menu
Camera Problem, where camera continueously circles the player character
Cinamatic problem, where audio and video are 'out of sync'
Save Problem, where all saves are always marked as corrupt
Loading Problem, where gta-sa.exe can't find the DVD in the drive, despite it being there
Play Problem, where there is HORRIBLE HORRIBLE lag.
Startup Problem, where game runs smoothly for about an hour, then when exited and restarted, game does not work at all
Installation Problem, where system detects no free memory when there is loads
Mouse Problem, where mouse outside of menu dosn't work
Graphics Problem, with pedestrians/objects turning invisible/the texture of the sky
Instability Problem, where game randomly crashes
Sound Problem, Music/Sounds not heard
Startup Issue, where aside from installation game does not recognize disc in drive
Inability to fire weapons from car after Big Smoke mission 'Just Buisness'
Crash Problem, where attempts to do Lowrider or Dance mission crash the game
Crash problem, where PC Reboots itself during Opening Cinamatic
Scripting Glitch, where in C.R.A.S.H mission 'Burning Desire', an npc you must take to a location will not go to that location no matter what, and instead will start running around in circles randomly
Installation Problem, where once installshield activates nothing happens


Strangely enough most of these are fixed by setting the game to Windows 98 Compadability. Compadibility. Something.

So... anyone else care to share?

Yes.. there are lots of the bugs in the Pc port of gta, shame. I have a VERY annoying bug when the sound will start to crackel, then die all together (music still works :/)

Anouther bug is when the sound goes out and so it "skips" people talking, subtitles flash up for asecond. So a 4 min Cinamatic turned into a 3 second one with flashes of subtitles.

GTA: San Andreas
None.

Battlefield 2
Dodgy server browser - often crashes too.
Random crashes during gameplay.

The only reason you have so many bugs with PC Games is the fact that they have to work from a very large variaty of hardware. Unlike console games which know straight away what stat the system is in. Most of the time crashes are down to what stat your computer sortware and hardware are in rather than the actual game.

Command and Conquer : Renegade.

well... how long have you got?

GTA:SA
only one bug for me was that the sound died once. i have i dont have the save game corruption problem... or it'll go on the shelf and never come back.

KOTOR:

The Game works horribly with ATI cards, on some planets it'll crash every 20 minutes, and on Dantooine the fps drops to 5.

The only bug I've found with the GTA port is that it crashes sometimes. Beyond that, it works like a charm.

San Andreas for PS2. There was a mission in it where you escorted Madd Dogg to a place near where you take trucking missions.

He refused to get in my car, and instead jacked a taxi and followed me. It was funny, because he would take every turn, and then do a 180 to catch up with me.
