Hey guys. I was wondering if any of you had the same problem and/or how to fix it.

Since moving back home from college, I haven't been able to get any of the maps to load when trying to play any kind of game over Live. I can't even host a game solely on my box without it telling me the maps failed to load. It doesn't matter if it's a new, downloadable map or one that shipped with the game.

I have since deleted all of the old map files and redownloaded them. And I still get the same error. I've also attempted to call Xbox Live Support, but managed to get several calls cut off after being on hold for 15 minutes or more. So I'm slowly running out of options. And it's not my connection, because I can play NCAA 08 online, as well as get to the Marketplace to download content.

So any ideas or suggestions would be MUCH appreciated. Thanks.

Yeah. Like I said, I've gone through, deleted all of the map files off of my 360 and redownloaded all of them. And nothing still works.

I have been getting the failed to load map too. I think I started seeing the problem when the new maps became free. I can go into a custom game on any map if I am hosting, but in match making I am failing to load the map about 25% of the time. I have gone to my stats and see which maps are failing to load and most of the time it is an original map such as beaver creek, but later in the day I can play beaver creek in match making, it is just random.

What's weird about my case is that it's every map, every time I try to play any kind of game. I get the error if I try to play Matchmaking, host a custom game, or just try to play a LAN game on my box.

So I'm out of ideas on what to tweak or fix to get anything working.

Thanks for the link. I think I figured it out. I actually got the original maps to load, and I'm in the process of downloading the new ones. So we'll see how this goes!
