Subject: I can't play Halo 2

Yay, Legendary status! Thank you bungie.net!

I have all the map packs and have played a little before, but since I turned it on today and got an update I can't play.

I wanted to play it one last time online before it gets disabled, bit I can't play. This update got loaded on the old Xbox downloading screen after I agreed to it, but then it just went to a black screen. After a few minutes it was clear that the title wasn't going to restart, so I turned my xbox 360 off and on again and tried to play. Now it tells me that my content is damaged, and its telling me that I don't have the maps to play any playlist. Now, I have all of the map packs, so I don't see how redownloading them would help, and that would take ages.

Any help.

It said my content was damaged too, so I re downloaded them and it did help. So try it. For me it appeared to be the second map pack listed. I think it was also the biggest one?

Take a deep breath.

First, go to your System Management and clear the cache by going to Memory -> Storage Device (probably HDD) + Press Y -> Clear cache.

Now go to Memory -> Storage Device -> Games -> Halo 2 and delete the map packs. Now use the Halo 2 in-game downloader to re-download all the maps again. Yes, it's a real pain, but I know the feeling as I had to do it myself after a licence transfer.

Good luck and enjoy Halo 2. :)

Whenever there is a Halo 2 update you have to re-download the maps. Should work for you after you download them.
