Bethesda finally acknowledged the save file errors and confirmed a patch is on the way. I am drained from this fight but grateful we held them to the truth. Keep your games updated and let me know if the performance actually improves for you.
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is suffering massive performance issues on PS3. Bethesda has not confirmed it yet, and their VP of marketing -- Pete Hines -- has even denied the existence of any widespread trouble.
"Most users aren't experiencing these kind of issues on the PS3."
Forums and communities all over the web are blowing up about this very issue. Pete Hines may have publicly gone on record saying most users aren't having issues, but they certainly have to be aware of it at this point.
Take a moment to sign this petition if you're having severe performance issues with your PlayStation 3 copy of Skyrim. If Bethesda is expected to be held accountable for this, it must be known that several people are effected.
And just to be clear, the issues in question are extreme lag and low frame rates after the save file reaches about 5 or 6mb. It usually happens right around 20-25 hours of gameplay.
**PLEASE DO NOT SIGN THIS PETITION IF IT DOES NOT APPLY TO YOU. IF YOU ARE NOT EXPERIENCING TROUBLE, DO NOT SIGN THIS PETITION**
The sheer number of people reporting these same lag issues proves that the situation is far from isolated. Watching this grow is exhausting yet necessary because Bethesda cannot ignore the reality of these save files much longer.

My save file is at 10mb and the game is basically a slide show now. Cant even walk through Riften without it freezing for ten seconds at a time. Fix it bethesda.
