Finally got to the boss in Zelda, got the Triforce charts etc (I've been going slow because I'm doing exams/revision...honest), but I'm about to throw my copy of Zelda out the window.

Why?

Because the game freezes ever time I try to enter the Temple of Gods, the game cuts o a different camera angle (where it pans out) then just crashes, and the sound makes a jarring sound. And it hasn't happened the once...every time I try it (currently around the two thousand mark) the crash happens.

Please don't tell me my disc is crapped up, now of all times...

Good points, looks like some disc-swapping tomfoolery is in order...

On a related note I'm happy to say that GAME in Victoria Centre, Nottingham is once more a nice place to go. There seems to have been some sort of staff purge, gone are the morons who were basically PS2 fanboys, and in are the people who genuinelly seem to like each system.

The new people seem to need prompting through everything, like the 10% off pre-owned games, promotions e.t.c. but I'm sure they'll get there in the end. Now Gamestation seems to have gone somewhat crap, and Another World training it's staff using the Clerks film (from the crap level of service), I'd say GAME in Victoria Centre is best place for GAMES in Nottingham. *collapses with shock*

Yeah, we have to really sort out that new member of staff, he doesn't understand 'customer satisfaction'.

I think the GAME option would work the best, won't cost a penny and hell if you can't be bothered to go into to town to get a copy, just order it off the website and send it back. They do they same 10 day no fuss returns policy on the site, it's like a free rental service that also delivers.

Why not take it back to the store you bought it from ?

Or, if that's not possible, try an easy retailer to exchange it ? A lot of retailers will cave in and give an exchange with no receipt if you just want the same game, works better if you can get a parent to do it as they're less likely to think you're pulling some sort of scam.

Failing that, rent Zelda from Blockbuster and do a disc swap if your Blockbuster doesn't mark discs, mine doesn't, though I've never actually swapped any discs 'cause I've had no problems with any games.

Or, buy a copy of the game from somewhere like GAME, then take back the next day, having swapped the discs.

Be creative ;)

Aw, too bad but as long as the save file is on your memory card you won't lose your progress.

Oh dear, I just realised that I wrote you're, instead of your.


Too tired.

I suggest two things.

- Clean lens
- Stick a hoover to the fans on both sides- there may be alot of dust inside.


And if that doesn't work, then you're disc is crapped up.
