Default i hate to say it

If it is lagging on single player, that sounds like a console or pc issue and not the game itself. When my first ps2 start going crazy especially before i opened it up and cleaned the laser eye my games would freeze or break up slightly. once i cleaned the eye it was much better but eventually it finally died on me.

If you take the game to a friends house and play single player does the same thing happen? If it does then I would look at the copy of the game you have.

Im not a professional but single player shouldnt lag at all unless something is interupting the loading of the game while its being played such as a scratch on the disc or the cd drive not spinning the disc evenly etc.

just a thought.

good luck

nah its not a laser or disc problem .. its a game problem totally .. too many people are getting the 4 second lag spike everytime a cop or someone enters your view for it to be anything else than a bad release

apparently its not a big "todo" on eidos hit list either

I can't be laser or disk, because I don't have a CD, I downloaded it, and I'm lagging at every cop/person to fight, just like 100's of others.

Question Im probably wrong but....

Like DRTY said it might be your pc thats causing this(maybe not) because im not gettting this problem I just get the little bit of choppiness(lag) while im playing online, does your pc reach the system requirments? Then again this doesnt explain why this is happening to the ps2, xbox versions I remember FEAR had a problem similar to this but that was just because it was loading the next area or autosaving, i dont know i just hope they fix all these problems soon.

Don't have Norton, have McAfee, and it's off.

Same, Norton is junk And yeah my system is way beyond specs ... maybe it has to do with vid card incompatibility issues .. what gfx card do you have Tec? I'm running a GEF 7800 series, and what about the rest of you?

i just want to narrow this bull*** down because its irritating
