In Elder Scrolls III on Xbox, there was a memory leak that they couldn't fix, so sometimes when the game is loading a new area, it actually reboots the Xbox. Apparently there's a way the developer can keep a freeze frame loading screen up while the console completely reboots.

Interesting. My og modded xbox has a custom firmware, and launches games off a hard drive, i wonder how it would handle this. I might have to dig it out and ftp over a copy of ES3 just to try it out.
