Ah I know exactly who you are. I'm not ccrogers, but I know who you are talking about. My username was residentevilob until they banned me. For some reason they were under the impression that I was a male faking as a woman, (No idea how they happened, don't ask), and they banned me saying I was someone else using a fake account. No idea why. Anyways, I fixed the problem. I bought a 20GB hard drive today and installed it. Issue resolved. I guess it simply cannot run from disc, which is odd considering all other games work just fine. Its odd because Fallout 3 and NV are extremely buggy games but play perfect on my system while GTA IV is almost unplayable unless its installed.

No, I am in no relation to whoever that is.

I recently bought GTA IV on the Xbox 360. I have an Xbox 360 Slim 4GB version, and I run the game from the disc (not installed). Well, for whatever reason, after playing only a few minutes, the framerate will dip between 15-20 FPS, making it hardly playable. Buildings will also be delayed to appear on the streets, and the game all around just feels like crap. I recently played it on the PS3 and had absolutely no problem. Is this a common issue when running from DVD? I don't want to think its my 360, because if it is, I will be returning it and switching back to PS3. I know I am late in the gen to be buying these older consoles, but I moved to 360 at advice from my friends, but so far, I am far from impressed. GTA IV being my only game on the console right now, I have no idea if its just the game or the 360, so help would be very much appreciated.
