That makes sense! The game has crashed in the same way before when I would have gotten an achievement (like doing a headshot on a Boryokudan).  It also crashes if I even try to look at achievements in the game menu.  I cannot play the game inside of Steam because of what is probably an annoying memory issue-- the sound is completely choppy, especially voices.

However, playing the non-Steam version has no issues at all.

Ok, letting you all know that I tried a non-Steam version, and it works just fine after the gun battles.  This looks like a Steam-only issue, even if you don't play the Steam game inside of the Steam application.

I tried using my copy of Windows XP on Oracle VirtualBox and STILL got the same error. 

For this I used the savestates uploaded by Steam - http://www.davelgil.com/boe/grue/grue_saves.zip
I think the one closest to the gun test is #5; it's the one before the "Delta6 finished" save.

I think GR was updated by steam to a newer engine?  I could be wrong about that though.

Here is one savegame.  This one may not work on Windows.  Let me know if it won't work.  http://speedy.sh/Kr9Yw/agssave.006

I'm sad to say this game-ending bug repeated itself on 2 computers using 2 different operating systems.  Both occurred after successfully completing Delta 6's shooting tutorial, after the speaker congratulates you for your shooting and you are supposed to receive a meal ticket.  The audio starts looping and the game closes itself with an illegal exception error.  I downloaded the game through Steam, but did not play it in Steam. 

My laptop running Ubuntu (and playing the game with Wine) comes up with this error, and so does a desktop computer running Windows 7.  The Windows computer has an Nvidia GeForce GTX 550 Ti.  The laptop has an Nvidia card as well.

I have changed DirectDraw/Direct3D and many other settings, and nothing works.  Can't play the rest of the game now.
