You can be sure there are readers of PR that have had no problems with the PC version of Rage, although a few reports we’ve seen and a couple of emails we’ve had point to a few problems. Some people have pointed to the second disc improving graphics a lot, and this same technology is being used for the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions of Battlefield 3, which can be read about here.

One issue posted in a forum, found here, a couple of days ago pointed to some problems with Rage that left “texture popping out” when the player looked left or right, which is known as “screen tearing”. One solution posted by another user said that some configuration files needed updating, which then helps the game look and run better on the PC. The confusion comes when we look at these configuration files, and there seems to be a few questions raised about what they do, and with no benchmarks to compare them to. You can read more on this yourself here, and see a video on YouTube by the same user showing them in action, although it does look a little slow. The same video is posted on this page below the article.

Another report about Rage PC problems has been posted on Kotaku, which shows that it has been officially confirmed by id software that there are driver problems, and these issues are really frustrating PC users. The full interview with Tim Willits can be read here, and shows id software has been working with ATI and Nvidia on these graphics problems, and hopes to have a solution to the driver issue soon.

Have you had any problems with Rage, and if so what platform are you running the game on?

In the past few weeks we have seen a few problems with the PS3 3.40 update, and a few Xbox 360 games, but what are the top Xbox 360 and PS3 problems of all time? This may be a little obvious at first, but it will depend on how different problems have affected you.

For the Xbox 360 we can point to the missing pads in early systems, which would have stopped discs getting scratched if the system was moved. While this would have affected a lot of gamers, RROD is one of the most pubic gaming problems of all time, so the Xbox 360’s red ring of death problem is our obvious winner.

The PS3’s biggest problem of all time may be little harder to predict, we have seen many gaming problems but if we were talking hardware, and software issues, what was the biggest?

YLOD: The yellow light of death started making an appearance some time ago now, and this seemed to hit early PS3 systems, but we cannot put this as our top PS3 problem of all time.

Our choice for the PS3 has to be the massive 8001050F error that affected the PSN, and because so much of the PlayStation 3’s gaming is done via online gaming, this was a big deal. Not to mention this error affected every PS3 system on the planet, apart from the newer PS3 slim model.

The error only lasted 24-hours, but worried gamers wondered if the problem would be fixed remotely or not, and it was one of the most discussed gaming problems ever in a 24-hour period.

These are our top Xbox 360 and PS3 problems of all time, what are yours? Let us know in the comments.
