Yet this game was supposed to be PERFECT!!!!

 If it's due to a manufacturing flaw in the disks, it has nothing to do with the game.

 That's like putting water in the gas tank of a car, and then calling the auto manufacturer crapy designers because there car does not work.

If the reports are right, they had to make 9,000,000 copies. Hard to do that and not screw up at least one manufacturing run. 

Well not according to RockStar... but I guess we could take your word over it..

They advised PS3 owners with issues to erase their install data and reinstall the game

No mention for the 360 problems, because they're are none other then players having their consoles RRoD. The "My console freezes minutes into the game" is RRoD symptom #1 (the three red lights is #2... eheh)

Umm, question... what would uninstalling and reinstalling do if the code is bad? It would put the exact same flaw in the system. A good reason to do that however, is if the disk read the information wrong the first time, and got it right the second ;)

 ya, it would be a minor install glitch with the install. It happens with any piece of software on the market sometimes. You could download AIM 50 times in a row and have 7 install files be bad/not install correctly.
