So I had my first copy of Fallout New Vegas and it played just fine, until I got closer the end of the main quest. I haven't beat the game yet, and it started to freeze up on me every 10 minutes if I was walking around, or it would freeze instantly if I tried to change my weapon. I tried installing the game to my hard drive, I tried clearing my cache. I have a n extra fan on my xbox so it doesn't get overheated. I also own the 250 GB XBOX 360 with the built in wi-fi. It was the first model of the newer version they came out with. Frustrated, I took the game back and traded it for something else. I recently bought another copy to see if that would make a difference and it didn't. My question is, I have seen the game available for download on xbox live marketplace and I was wondering if anybody has any problems with the game if they purchase it that way instead of using the disc.

Never purchased it on market place, but ive played the game on both the old and new consoles, i get the odd freeze but its very rare and completed the game every time. I downloaded the game from the disk to my hard drive and never had any probs. Hope you get it sorted mate.
