"Bug Me" Replaces fighter's name on ladder, then game freeze.

I ran into a game freeze with a strange twist.

I was playing Ladder and reached Shao Kahn using Ermac (with continues). After a few times of him beating me like a circus monkey he did his fatality. I was practicing moves on the controller and didn't notice when the menu came up and accidently went to the player select. I switched to Raiden just for the hell of it.

When the Ladder screen loaded my character tile was still Ermac, but the name said Bug Me. When the fight started to load the camera was in the center instead of P1 side. A large mass liquid (dark red/almost brown) flowed up from the center and then the image froze. The coliseum in the background was only half loaded so the bottom half of the screen was black except for the column of blood. Unfortunately I don't have a picture of the freeze. I tried the exact same steps again but it didn't happen.

How's my volume?

Oh that Boon. But yeah, good catch. Probably a disc load error. You should probably keep a camera at the ready during the first days of playing this game in case you do see a glitch occurring, just so that when NRS sees it they'll have a better idea of what's going on.

No lie, I probably would have freaked out if I saw that (of course I always have an over-active imagination when it comes to glitches so don't mind me).
