From what I read on other forums it was supposed to address the "save" glitch. However, I feel it has caused more problems than what was happening in the first place. Now, I come home to find my baby sitter gone and my kids lying in the street. I also have weird glitches that cause my Sims to get stuck on the weirdest items. If you are having issues I have found that clearing your cache seems to help along with installing the game to the hard drive. Of course, I only have a 360 so I don't know what can be done for Sony's product. Plus, if you didn't receive the auto-update then clearing the cache should allow it to download properly!
