Every time i try to confront Benny or even turn my character towards him the game freezes and crashes. I can go all through out The Tops Casino but the second my character turns in the direction of where benny should be it just freezes the game. So i can not progress with the main story...

ugh... come on

was able to get around it by just talking to swank, avoiding where benny first is in the casino, and completing the quest by killing benny... but obviously i shouldn't have to do this...
