But are the new maps (Blastacular: Tombstone and Desolation) 360 exclusive, or can you use them on a normal X-Box?

If they are 360 exclusive, then did Bungie confirm why they would do this, stop virtually matchmaking for the thousands of people who not upgrade to the 360?

Oh, and one more question -- What was changed in the update from Halo V1.1 to Halo V1.5?

The new maps are for xbox and the 360. The other changes were made to the playlists for optimatch and the way the banhammer works.

Really.

Well, thank you very much for that. ^_^ But my cousin tried to download it on his X-Box, but he got some "Failed to download, you will not be purchased for this download." How do you fix that?

Your cousin needs to have credit card details on his live account.

What do you mean? His credit card information was on his X-Box, in fact that's how he has a live subscription, not through X-months. Do you mean that he will have to re-enter the credit card information, or...?

Well, thank you very much everyone, I got most of the information I was looking for, but I still kind of need to know how to resolve the issue with it not downloading properly. I heard from someone (And keeping in mind, this is mostly 100% bull xD) that you need to punch in some sort of code... Is that in any way true?

Is the account on a prepaid card? Because those won't work.

The maps become free July 4th I think, so if all else fails, you may have to wait it out and play Hardcore and Double team (the only playlists that don't have the maps :-/ )

Forgive my idiocy, but where do you type that, before you press purchase, on the dashboard, ingame...?

And two more question -- How was this code found out, (did Bungie release it? :-S) And why was this code made, obviously Bungie would want to get the maps... As annoyance free as possible.

They wouldn't download for me, either, the first time I tried. I reset my router though and everything went smoothly.

But I tried that on both my friend's X-Box 360, and my cousin's X-Box on two different connection, one being Cable and one being ADSL.

And I still need an answer to these questions if anyone has them.

On my original xbox (not 360) i failed the download about 4 times. just keep trying. if you're lucky it will resume from where you got up to last time, instead of starting again. i was afraid that the incomplete download would get me banned from live but it didn't

just keep trying bruddah
