"I, too, was sick of my Be a GM games freezing. I think out of about 20 games, 8 or 9 froze... a very frustrating percentage. I was so mad, in fact, that I called EA Sports to complain.



The fellow I spoke to was quite helpful actually, seemed to actually care, unlike the developers who released NHL 12 Beta.



Here is what he advised me to do, forgive me if you've already tried this:



On your PS3 main menu, go to the Network Settings. The very bottom option in Network Settings is something along the lines of 'Media Server Access'. Set that to 'Disabled', (mine was on 'Enabled'). Then, go to Game Data Utility, and delete the NHL 12 data, (this deletes the patches and such, but will not delete any settings/rosters/Be a GM... etc).



Then restart your PS3. Load NHL 12, and you'll be prompted to download the 1.04 Patch again. Download it.



I have played 5 games since doing this and have not had a single freeze. Perhaps I'm premature in my jubilation, and game #6 may freeze, but I'm having better odds- at least for now.



Now if only they would call a god damn penalty... or save my audio settings in Be A GM, so I don't have to keep turning my menu music up every time I load it.



At any rate, I hope this helps... if not, at least I have an EA case/claim number I can reference next time I call. I will not rest until this game plays like a $60 game, not a $2 coaster."
