Weird Xbox 360 problem.

[Curtmiester]

This isn't really a problem. More of a weird, little annoyance. You see everytime I select one of my friends on my friends list and then get out of their info my 360, for some random reason, freezes for 5 seconds. Now this isn't a big problem that needs fixing now, I'm just wondering if anyone knows why it happens and if anyone else has the "disease" (I'm calling it that because I like it.)
Also this only happens when the person I select is online.

That is bizarre! I have heard some prophets call that "Low-ding" or something like that.

It happens to me.

Interesting. But it only happens to my friends list. Not even online play is screwed-up.

Happens to me and...pretty much everyone else.
Although it has gotten somewhat worse (by a second or so) since they started doing the more routine maintenance checks of XBL.

Ya, since the PS3 has no loading at all. It also doesn't require you to sit on your couch for an hour once you put a new game disc in.
The patience issue will not be solved with a PS3, that's for sure.

Go buy a Dreamcast, they're great.

Though really, it's not a disease, it's just loading like every Xbox 360 does. Mine takes a few seconds because it's usually loading my Windows Live contacts.

I was staying on topic, in that he said:

...freezes for 5 seconds...

I was simply making it relevant to this discussion.

how does contacting the xbox helpline have anything to do with what you said earlier?

oh, and i get that problem aswell, and sometimes on the achievements exit aswell

It's an issue with the new dashboard, I think. Never experienced it, but some of my friends have.

Are you saying the X-Box requires you to do nothing for an hour?

If you did, I would say one of the PS3's big titles. Metal Gear Solid 4, is all about sitting on your couch doing nothing.

Though, if you did mean that, I don't know what you were referring to.

Ok, what I said was all satirical. I am pretty much saying that the PS3 is as slow as hell. Not that is something absolutely detestable, but it just is. So, I was saying the PS3 wouldn't be a better option, since he was getting impatient waiting for five seconds with the 360. That is all.
