And to investigate the bug in The Sims 3 for the PS3 and Xbox 360

Electronic Arts currently has no idea of what causes a rather serious bug found by various players during the rescue of a lot of The Sims 3. It seems in fact to save the game on Xbox 360 and PS3 sometimes leads to paralysis of about 10 seconds of the game followed by the blocking of the console. The bug occurs both when running manually or automatically tries to save the title and the incidence of the problem seems to be higher after long gaming sessions.

Currently, EA is aware and is investigating what happens but apart from general advice about cleaning the disc has not yet been able to give more precise information.
