So you are saying it's to be expected? Warcraft 3 has never crashed on me, nor has Starcraft, or a number of other games I have.
GR, so you are saying the game has actually locked up on you, and a disk read error from a brand new game? Ouch. Well, Metroid Prime locked up on me a couple times too, but for the most part games designed with one specific hardware in mind should not be crashing ever, with like 4000 hours of gameplay even!
