As we find ourselves in the middle of this insane launch schedule, it’s easy to forget some of the huge games that have already come and gone this season. Gears of War 3 has been out since October, and despite moving millions of copies seems to have shifted off the minds of gamers eagerly awaiting their next fix.

But quite a few people are still playing GoW 3, and some of those folks have been reporting a serious problem with the game.

Apparently, some Gears players were experiencing random game freezes of varying lengths – sometimes the game would freeze for a few moments, other times it would crash entirely. Not exactly the kind of thing you want to happen right in the middle of an intense Locust confrontation. Epic Games pushed a patch through late last night that seems to have resolved the problem, so if you’re a Gears owner you should go ahead and get it downloaded.

Beyond the bug fix, Epic added a spectator mode for private versus matches, eased up the requirements for a couple of medals, and balanced a few other things. They’ve also fixed a few bugs – you should check out the full list here: Gears of War 3 Title Update 2

Did you have any issues with Gears of War 3, or has it been smooth sailing since launch?
