yes, sorry had a typo, i can press the xbox button and go through everything on there, my game just goes black , it is so annoying when you do a mission and it just goes black, i noticed if i have the phone open and hit the XMB button if goes black

ok its not your internet so maybe try and install the game again have you got both disks installed or just the install disc

Okay so now its came up saying the disk is unreadable, i dont get how, the disc has never been out the xbox since i got it and theres no laser burn, my console could play black ops II all day with no issue, wtf is going on

maybe your laser is going on your Xbox try install disc 1 and 2 and see if you get the problem

- check disc for any scratches or damage?
- have you installed the game to your HDD
- Xbox overheating

Could be the issues?

im doing this now, i dont get whats happening but its annoying me, my xbox is quite warm, but that shouldnt make the game actually black screen? unless the hdd is not being read as quick because its to hot to function?

it keeps on crashing for me too on ps3

i dont think its a heat issue because your xbox would freeze. installing the discs may fix the problem

im reinstalling the discs now, disc one seems to install rapidly, doesnt seem to have that much on it. and the console is hot manil down the bottom of the console (standing up) ridiculously hot, This is the 4th time ove installed the disc, sort your sh*t out GTA im so close to going back to the shop and asking for a new copy , ive finished the game but i cant bare this if it does it with Online

i think it is because im playing it to much lol, it works fine all day, then i notice when i get the black screen the console is really hot, the discs arnt scratched at all, both in perfect condition, i played black ops II earlier and that didnt freeze so not the console and the Xbox guide works fine when it black screens, its down to the game or the HDD/Ram not being able to Raid quickly enough so it bottles out? this is 7 year old hardware guys
