Activision. I've had more games freeze up in the middle of playing their games than anyone else. Yesterday it was X-Men III - The Official Game. Froze up on me right in the middle of Wolverine shredding some Hydra guards in the holding pens. Luckily there is a save opportunity after each mission, so I didn't have to go too far back.

Last time a game froze up on me, it was X-Men Legends II - The Rise Of Apocalypse (also by Activision) and I lost quite a bit of progress in it and a few hairs after pulling them out. It froze up in the same place every time. After half a dozen tries, I finally found out that I was carrying too much inventory. Did they not QA test these games all the way through? It was not just that mission, but the possibility of any mission freezing up on you for carrying too much inventory. To me, that is poor quality.

Is it just X-Men games that Activision screws up or is it all of their games?
