I'm not sure but it seems to have fixed that little freeze when you ordered
food at the fast food chains.

Now it is funny you should say that because I was hoping the same, but
less than an hour ago it happened in a burger bar. I don't think any
of these fixes are aimed at single player gaming, otherwise surely
they would have dealt with the ones people have mentioned such as
this.

The update relased on the 23rd of June? If so, here:-

  1.   Fixed an issue where players were unable to enter or exit
vehicles in GTA Race.

  2. Fixed an issue where scripted vehicles were causing games to
unexpectedly crash.

  3. Improved reliability and frequency of PS3™ online leaderboard
updates.

  4. Fixed a rare hang some players encountered when moving from a Race
or GTA Race lobby into gameplay.

  5. Fixed a hang that would occur when players were switching teams
during the countdown in the lobby.

  6. Fixed an issue where players were able to get ridiculously high
scores from Cops 'n Crooks matches.

  7. Changed GTA Race and Race so that the last player remaining always
receives a reward of $250.

  8. Fixed an issue where spectating players would prevent the game
from finishing.

  9. Fixed an issue where players were unable to spectate in Round 2 of
Cops 'n Crooks games.

 10. Changed countdown timer in lobby so that it no longer resets when
new players join a game.

 11. Changed the kick option so that kicked players are no longer
brought back to single player.

not if I got it on the 360

yeah so did I, and from what I read it is pretty much useless to me.
It doesn't solve the lockups in the fast food places and it doesn't
address the lockup which sometimes happens when you arrive back at a
friend's place after drinking. Possibly the two most annoying flaws.

Thanks for the info. I've had those problems too, but haven't noticed them
since the update, but there's still time

I must admit I haven't either but I haven't been playing much so I'll
have to give it a thorough work out

Other than have the 360 bog down hard a couple times during heavy action
scenes in GTA4, it's been a faithful dog so far. No hangs or lockups. But
it's a fairly new 20gb version with only 4 titles loaded onto it, if that
means anything.

It seems like the autosave screen that pops up ("this slot already
contains") after you finish a single player mission is larger and faster now
that it's patched.

I just haven't really had the gumption to give it any real stick this
week. must try the drunken friends thing, which is the most likely
lock-up for me.
