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.
I still can't fathom how implementing that "solution" is easier than fixing a memory leak. Like what the hell?
Fixing memory leaks (while not breaking anything else) is surprisingly difficult sometimes.

leaks are extremely hard to find and rebooting is just one function call.
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.

Yeah im still curious how that would work with a custom bootloader, but thats an interesting read.
