NHL 09 disc error also known as the cache time-bom

September 13, 2008 in News comments 3

NHL 09 players have started reporting disc read errors with NHL 09. It often crashes whenever you load saved modes or games. EA hasn't said anything about it yet.

Sports fans, grab the tissues because the tears are about to start flowing. Users on the official EA Sports forum are reporting widespread disc read error issues with NHL 09 -- over time. Many users are reporting the popular hockey franchise works as advertised during the initial play through but eventually crashes after loading saved modes or regular games once the Xbox 360 reboots.

While EA has yet to release an official statement regarding the problem users have found success with two bandaid solutions -- which point to cache problems in the game. According to the EA Forum users clearing the cache of the Xbox 360 and disabling the auto-save feature in NHL 09 may help fix the problem but as gamers play more of the game the issue returns.

    Shit, and I was going to pick this up for PS3, too.

      Then you should be safe, Final Blade. All reports I'm finding of this issue are only associating this issue with the 360 version.

    OMG THE FIRST GAME WHERE THE PS3 VERSION IS ACTUALLY DOING BETTER THAN THE XBOX360 VERSION. In all previous games that have had bugs, it's usually the PS3 version that's having most of the issues.

    In any case this is another case of "EA not testing properly and releasing a bug filled game".
