    It's funny that we are discussing this now because just last night I had to boot up my PS2 copy for the first time in about 5 years. I was redoing Apocalypse Nigh. I had just finished the fight and it was playing the ending cutscene. During that cutscene, Eshnatarl does some sort of spell which for some reason, crashed POL on my computer every single time. Every time I restarted, I went right back into that cutscene and had the crash. I was stuck in something of a loop.

    Luckily I still had my Playstation 2. I reconnected it and after about 10 hours of updating (totally not exaggerating) I was able to log on and finish the cutscene there, and get back to playing on PC.

    Ha, so the old, decrepit bird has its uses. Hopefully, after SE finishes with the RoV updates, they'll devote more time to squashing game-halting bugs like that. I imagine that would have really sucked if you hadn't still had the PS2 setup available -- especially considering how slow SE is about fixing issues like that manually for users (or so I've heard.) Aren't you still stuck on a Bastok mission or something, Bungie?

    I don't think this was actually a game issue. This is something with my computer. I sometimes get crashes like that if a Blizzard family spell is cast, be it me, an enemy, or a party member. Something about the graphic effect on my screen causes the crash. Like..... the cluster of crystals and polygons bunched together like that. The cutscene I'm referring to has a visual effect quite similar to a Blizzard family spell.

    If my PS2 weren't available, I probably would have installed the game on my laptop and run it through there.
