Bummer. That does suck. Not a single freeze for me.

Just to make sure, are you pressing Y and selecting "Play from Hard Drive"? I think if you just start up the game like one that you don't have installed on the HDD, then it will just play from the disc. There's no reason for you to get a disc read error when the disc is only needed for verification of ownership so that's why I suspect this.

I'm with the threadstarer. I can't keep up with this game because the ticker is so far behind, the runs are choppy at best.

I'd rather have terrible graphics and a smooth running game rather than what we have.

I love stuff like coaching and preparing teams, players, etc. but this game is unplayable. I bought it for $10 bucks and I dont even think I cant get past halftime without being deathly bored.

Feel good about the fact that you paid $10, as I paid much more.

I've never had a freeze issue with head coach and I've been playing it pretty much every day since August and I'm almost done my first 15 year season and looking forward to starting another career.

Yes there is steep leaving curve and yes the game can get too easy and yes there are some faults. Name me a game that doesn't have its faults or a game that satisfies everybody. But for me, there is no better football game or GAME out there.

And I keep on trying to move on to play another games like Fable 2, Crackdown, End War, NHL 09 or FIFA09. But I keep on coming back to HC... And its been a long time that a game has captured my interest as much as HC.

I some what agree.. the playing the game can get boring and I find it too easy. That's why I sim the season games but do the weekly stuff and play the playoff games.

I technically paid more for the game since I got it as part of the Madden collectors edition. And I'm kind of pissed I paid for Madden CE since I played Madden probably 5 times and its been collecting dust ever since and I can't trade it in since HC is packaged with it...

I got both these games for Christmas. I have put a single hour into Fable 2 and haven't had the heart to pop it back in as it would take time away from HC. I'm sure some day I'll get to Fable 2, but right now, especially with the playoffs on this weekend, it's HC all day.

I am in the same boat. I have had madden in twice and can't finish a game. HC though has a lot of potential and I keep going back to it.
