 > Thanks for testing! Although your results were inconsistent, to me they
 suggest that screen shaking is indeed the likely suspect. Now we have two
 independent scenes that can trigger it. My hope is that this narrows
 things down enough so that a developer with a PS3 can easily reproduce
 this; I feel like that's often a hard part with the console platforms.

 horizonal+vertical, like the end of the SQ1 intro.

 selecting Skip Intro. This will take you straight to the shake scene.

 all the work happens in the backends. The SCI shake code is in
 `GfxScreen::setShakePos` and `GfxScreen::kernelShakeScreen` in

 My is a french floppy VGA version
 I will do a lots of testing this weekend or monday and will get back to
 you with the full results.

 As for now i just tested it again (freddy) and off the cliff the console
 freeze BEFORE JUST AT THE START of the Shaking camera event , just just
 before it.

 I am actually making a last test for tonight , since the game didnt
 crashed when i had ZERO savefile in Scummvm i just erased my savefile of
 freddy and Space Quest 1 , rebooted the console and will repeat the
 testing at the cliff...

 Ok = NO CRASH !
 I do not turn off the console yet , i restart the game directly without
 returning to scummvm...
 = Console FREEZE!

 it look like the games (Space Quest 1 & Freddy) work perfectly once
 FRESHLY installed on scummVM but as soon you die and need to
 continue/restart the games = Console Freeze on shaking events (weird..)

 I will make deeper testing with english version of both game this weekend
 and get back to you soon.

 Thanks for your help , its really appreciated :)
