Alright earlier today I picked up the budget Deadly Premonition. Upon playing it everything was fine but about 30 mins into the game a weird occurrence (other than the content of the game) the game has a series of white lines in a circular path around the screen. Then grain starts to appear and spread throughout the entire animated parts of scenery and character models. So, naturally I'm like okay I did buy a budget game maybe it's just the game itself so I pop in another game my bro just picked up AvP (luckily I did not have to pay for it hah). I start to play there was no noticeable grain till I started the campaign then every light I look at had that same white line effect after 2 mins into the game loading up. Is this a problem that occurs regularly, or is there some kind of fix etc. with typical problem solving solutions. Oh for people who love the old Resident Evil and Silent Hill games Deadly Premonition is like an Oath to them with it's cheesiness I personally love it.

Glad you're liking Deadly Premonition. It's all up in the air for fans like myself in the UK and I'm hoping its region free.

Sounds like it's your TV or maybe the cables that's the problem rather than the 360 itself.

Where did you get it?

It's not supposed to be out until the 23rd.

I hate you. I'm so looking forward to this game.

I'll have to check out Deadly Premonition since I'm a huge Silent Hill, Resident Evil, Fatal Frame kind of guy.

About the image distortions I've not had that happen personally. What kind of television are you using and what are your hook ups?

How old is your xbox? This could be signs that it's going to red ring on you. I'm only saying this as when Fallout came out I kept getting horrid graphic issues, then after a while it would have freezes with the wonky graphics. After that I kept getting red ding on and off.

Hopefully that's not what's going on with you.

@ Stevil

Yeah it's supposedly region free keep your fingers crossed I will too just for your guy's sakes :P

and it's not my cables because at the dashboard it's fine along with the mini guide.

@ Renegade

I got it at Gamestop it's scheduled for a release today in the U.S.

@DDG

You'll definitely like it I've played all of the games you listed and have been loving the shit out of the cheesy story and symbols. Also the dialouge "my coffee warned me about it" has got to be the greatest line from any game ever.

I'm also using the same Phillips 47" I've been using and my original HDMI component cables that came with the xbox pro back when Microsoft still had a black beating heart

@lem

That's what I'm thinking the responses I've been getting on another site have similiar details.

Thanks guys for the input I appreciate it.

It's definitely scheduled for the 23rd, per their promos and every other retailer. Apparently Gamestop got it early, I'll have to check that out.

Thanks.
