Update 4.0 has completely destroyed my Skyrim experience.

I had no problems at all in Skyrim pre 4.0 (9.2 MB game save).

Now, if I even TOUCH the controller during an autosave....lock.
After loading I will lag horribly for about 15-20 seconds (this might clear up perfectly, or I it will stay until I bring up the menu and then it will run fine).
Fireball....lag
Icestorm...lag
Chainlighting...lag
Im even getting audio lag (will miss a death sound and 20 seconds later Ill hear it).

Hell, I had the game lock at the Press Enter screen (twice).

Im on an original 60gig.

One good thing though, I have not lost a save. Have them all backed up on Cloud just incase, but I will not be playing my PS3 till this gets fixed.

Dude Skryrim is known to have issues on PS3. Has nothing to do with the firmware update. Its pure coincedance. 

I have another PS3 that is still running 3.73 using the exact same save file (off the cloud) with another original PS3 (this one is a 20gig).  It has no problem at all running Skyrim. 

I have also reinstalled Skyrim, and both started a new game and loaded a earlier save off cloud, and each of these does the exact same thing on 4.0.  Never seen any issue with the 20gig. 

Based on the above I refuse to believe this is a coincidence.  Im much more inclined to believe there is an issue between the original PS3s and 4.0 + the newest version of Skyrim. 


I have a release date 60 GB and the situation with Skyrim was as bad with 3.73 as it is with 4.00. Not saying your not up to something but it surely doesnt affect everyone.
