Here is the Original Xbox One. Added another. I haven’t completed any game since Secrets of the Pacific was made without a crash.

Sledgehammer Games is still investigating the causes of these crashes on all platforms and has taken the event from circulation. You won’t lose your progress if you don’t complete all six challenges.
