Download the GFWL client from Xbox.com and update it through that. Then try to install the game. Usually fixes the issue.

Yeah. That's right. I don't have a 50 in H3. I never got Onyx in Reach. If a game sucks too much, I won't even bother trying for such trivial "accolades". Besides, I've done way more things that take far more skill and talent than anything that can be done in a video game.

If you had read the FAQ at the top of this forum, your problem would have been solved and this thread wouldn't exist.

I tried to update Live, but it just keeps updating and then restarting, or it never updates at all.

Also the AR is actually good in CQB now and no longer a glorified baseball bat.

Look at his username... what in it makes you think he can find it on his own?

Cut him some slack, I'm sure his strafe is godly.

Okay, I couldn't type that with a straight face.
