Subject: new accounts, since the new dashboard came out, work for xbox games

Sorry about your head, I was aiming for Tanley.

Katy's proud property, all Katy's! YEAH! I got married!

I made a brand new gamertag 3 days after the New Xbox Live Experience Dashboard came out and now when I go to Halo 2 the gamertag is nonexistant in the list of gamertags to sign in under. What is going on? Does anyone have the same problem? I not only tried Halo 2, I also attempted Call of Duty : Finest Hour and Star Wars : Knights of The Old Republic and once again my brand new gamertag did not come up. My only explaination would be there was some kind of bug or error made in this new dashboard update and now the systems will not recognize brand new gamertags. I even called Xbox Support twice and spent 40 plus minutes with them on it (both times). The first time I explained the error they simply suggested that the account was corrupt and had me walk through various steps. They told me to wait it out and if the gamertag didn't finally start appearing then givce them another call. I knew it would not show up so that was no surprise to me. I called back again and they had me go through more various steps. Once again, nothing worked. Now they have simply suggested to just use older accounts. This is a matter they need to resolve. This is their mistake and it ruins many peoples xbox lives experiences. The only reason I made that brand new gamertag was to play Halo 2 and now I can't. I would appreciate it if anyone could please tell me if they are experiencing any similar problems. Thanks.

Gamertags: defghik, sneaky beav3r. Send me a FR if you play MLG customs.

Sad but true... Halo 1 > Halo 2>>>Halo 3

In the dashboard, sign out of your account. Then, sign into your new account, load Halo 2, and then you'll be able to select that account. You had to do this before NXE came out.

Have you made a new account since NXE came out? It doesn't work I tried. They even told me to sign in with the new gamertag sign back out and then go to Halo 2 and it still did not work and I am not the only one with this problem.

Is there a certain number of GT's you can show? Maybe if you delete all GT's except the new one, the new one will show up? Just a guess.
