Grand Theft Auto IV has been nothing but revered ever since its release a few days ago, but somewhere among the perfect scores and rave reviews lies a problem that has been plaguing PS3 owners ever since they booted the game up; the online. Widespread reports of ailing online capabilities is one thing, but apparently the problems spread over to the single player game as well, resulting in slow load times and freeze ups.

Solution? Sign out of the PSN and then start the game up. While the solution won't save your online dreams of walking Liberty City with friends, it will let you enjoy the game on your own. As an official remedy had yet to be released by the developers, this seems to be the only way to solve the issue.

As this story develops, SonyPG.com will keep you in the loop.
