Symptoms

The game halts and crashes when navigating through the UI Menu options "too fast". No crashes when navigating them slowly. Gameplay is otherwise fine, menu crash can be "worked around" by navigating the UI options "slower" (waiting 1/2 to a full second in-between scrolling through UI/Menu options). "UI/Menu options" included anything selectable in the main menus and within the pause/config menus of the individual games. Holding any of the directional buttons to "auto-scroll" through any of the menu items with crash the game after scrolling through a few selections of the menu.

Reproduction

Method 1

1. Launch game and arrive to the title screen after the logos and opening confirmation
2. Arrive at the Main Menu after the title screen (Press any Button to Start)
3. From the title screen you can trigger the issue by simply fast scrolling through the different game titles selectable from the main menu (RAYFORCE/RAYSTORM/RAYCRISIS options). Try holding Left/Right on the d-pad to scroll through the options present on the main screen as fast as possible.
4. The game should crash with a "steamapp is not responding message. The same crash can be avoided by "slowly" moving through the same items that cause the previous crash.

Method 2

1. Launch game and arrive to the title screen after the logos and opening confirmation
2. Arrive at the Main Menu after the title screen (Press Any Button to Start)
3. Enter any of the three selectable games from the Start Menu (RAYFORCE/RAYSTORM/RAYCRISIS)
4. Once within the individual game, enter the pause menu (should be the Left/Right Trigger equivalents by Default)
5. Hold Up/Down to scroll through any of the menu items as fast as possible to "trigger" the issue. The issue can be avoided again by simply slowly navigating through these items.
6. The game should crash with a "steamapp is not responding message. The same crash can be avoided by "slowly" moving through the same items that cause the crash.
