30 hours, save file 4.9mb, runs perfect so far. I'm not expecting it to stay that way though as my save file increases, though oddly my save file hasn't been increasing too rapidly. I find it sometimes goes down even though I've just completed a dungeon and made a mess. I also havent downloaded any patches for the game (im on dialup), I figure maybe there's a chance the bug is in the 1.1 patch that was released with the game. Not that i'm too hopeful of that being the case.
I've actually been following these boards before I even purchased the ps3 version knowing and dreading the stutter-bug before I even opened the package.
I also have the PC version which my son has been playing for about 35 hours and ive put maybe 5 hours into. He's actually encountered 2 crashes, 1 freeze, and an annoying 'freeze for 5 seconds every minute or so' problem (specific to xp, work around for it) whereas with the ps3 version I've had only 1 hard freeze. Of course the PC version looks amazing though in comparison. The ps3 version I find solid thus far, colors are a bit washed out and my hdtv is terrible with ghosting in dark environments, but it's perfectly playable and there are worse ps3 ports out there.
Despite the bugs I love this game, so good it practically brings me to tears of joy on a regular basis

. I immediately ordered a new graphics card for pc a few hours after playing, it just felt like 'this was the one', that game I'll be playing the hell out of for the next 5+ years. Hopefully all these bugs will be worked out and long forgotten before too long. I plan to be living here in skyrim for a long long time.
