Major Nelson reports that there’s an update for the Xbox 360 version of BioShock.
Update improves stability when loading autosaves and overall game stability, corrects audio during title menu loading, and addresses AI behaviors regarding use of health stations.
No word about a PC patch to fix that version’s numerous problems.
[UPDATE: A lot of people are claiming that this update is CAUSING problems - ie. slow load times, slow texture loads, etc.
The solution:
This seems to be a problem with the hard drive caching system on in
the XBox 360 system software, and we are working with Microsoft to
identify a solution for this issue. We have confirmed that the
hitching goes away if you clear the hard drive cache.To clear the hard drive cache, you must hold down both the RB and LB
gamepad buttons while the game is starting. This must be done
IMMEDIATELY after the console is rebooted (or the game is launched
from the dashboard) and the buttons must only be released AFTER the
red 2K Games logo appears.NOTE: do not attempt to clear the hard drive cache by holding the "A"
button during loading. While that works for Oblivion, Bioshock uses
different button combination to clear the cache, and holding "A" will
not work.
