Texture flicker on 360

So, most games work normally, some just flicker the texture like objects clipping (CoD Ghosts), but others(spec ops the line and Asuras wrath so far) this happens:

's video - Texture flicker | Vidme

Sniper elite has no problems as far as I noticed. Also tested Sacred Citadel and Just Cause 2. No problems there.

I went from my 30" to 42" HDTV, the problem happened, went back to 30" and the problem persists. Any ideas on fixes? It started mid-game in Spec Ops: The Line, then became unplayable.

Fable 2/ Fable 3 Texture issues

Fable 2 - head and neck textures will flicker blue/glow white. Hair and beard options disappear or flicker during game play. Clothing textures turn red and lose any 3D qualities. Objects in world will flicker the same blue or red
as above. Audio(esp indoors and caves) will crackle/ cut out/ distort.

FABLE 3- Same audio glitch as in Fable 2. Happens when entering Sanctuary, Dweller's Camp, Reaver's Mansion and the ENTIRE desert walk in Aurora.

I have already uninstalled and reinstalled, I've also hard reset my Xbox, I've done everything except a pagan ritual to get this game to function. So this is an error on your part. Thanks.

Eek. That doesn't look good. Here are a few suggestions.

• Have you tried reinstalling the game? Maybe something got corrupted.
• If you are connected to the TV via HDMI, I'd try playing around with the HDMI color space/reference level settings in the Xbox system settings in Display. They are best left at "Auto", but sometimes manually adjusting them might do something.
  
• Have you tried different HDMI cables, or even different HDMI ports on your TV?
  

I don't want to scare you too much, but consider that the worst case scenario could be that your Xbox 360 system is probably going to die soon. This looks like a classic case of graphical artifacting -- PC gaming users sometimes see this
when they have a malfunctioning graphics card. Same deal here with the Xbox.

Hope this helps in some way.

 

good call Expert. i hadn't thought of this, but i remember when i had a console that started going bad. it was fine for Beautiful Katamari (a much less graphically intensive game), but if i played Borderlands everything got "scrambled" after a little bit
of playing. eventually this would also happen with Katamari, and sooner each time. finally went Red Ring of Death on my. this is caused by the various "chips" CPU, RAM, or likely in these cases the GPU, heats and cools repeatedly. eventually the solder
below the chips "crack" and makes a bad connection, the console won't boot to prevent more damage, and it displayed the 3 Red Lights. the thermal compound microsoft uses is cheap, and Arctic Silver does a much better job of transferring the heat from the
chips to the heat sinks. also having lots of dust inside can prevent proper cooling. once the solder connections go bad the only option is a reflow, which remelts the solder, or a reball, which is having the solder totally removed and replaced.
