This isn't what this section of the forums is normally used for, but it's the best place for it.
Basically I've been playing Dead Space 2 and been having a good time, however I've been stopped by what I assume is a bug in chapter 9, I've reached the section in the level where you have just now seen what is blocking your transport; a giant tentacle (and told Ellie via radio or whatever it is they are using to communicate), I attempted to take the elevator down, however when I activated it, it wouldn't move and would simply play the little down arrow animation of the elevator's screen (I hope you know what I mean) without moving.
To fix this I attempted to restart at a checkpoint, which was the door just before that particular room (there was a store and a save station, however I didn't use it, I used the one that is available the moment you left the transport to check on the disturbance), I pass through the door to find that elevator is somehow still doing the animation, but not moving (meaning I cannot choose to start the elevator), upon seeing this I shot around and used telekinesis a bit more in an attempt to perhaps find something that would allow me to move on in case it wasn't a bug, however this yielded no results.
In another attempt to move on I exited the game and chose to load my save and progress back to the area I was at. When I reached the room before the elevator again I chose to save thinking that my issue would be fixed, however when I passed through the door I found that the elevator still had the animation going on without moving.
If it has any bearing on the situation I am playing the Xbox360 version of the game.
I attempted to search around for a solution, but I have found no mention of this issue. Any assistance with my problem is greatly appreciated.
