Downloaded fine to both xbox 1 and xbox 360 the other night.
No issues whatsoever.

Both boxes are unmodded.

Modded XBox 360, downloaded fine, I actually downloaded all the maps cos I never got around to using the MP disc on my 360, lol.

I was getting a problem with the top 2 in the list, I dropped out to my dashboard, had 5Gig left free on my HDD but decided to clear some stuff off, anyhow a couple of demos and videos deleted later and it downloaded the top 2 packs fine.

Hope this helps somehow.

No Go here!

I did the Halo 2 update and it wiped out the other free maps.  So I started downloading them in the order of release, and all downloaded fine.

However, the new maps wouldn't download, so I read the boards and everyone said.. keep trying, so I did.

And now I get the error that Installation Failed Contact Xbox.com... which is a B$ error.

So now, my 360 thinks I Have downloaded the content (even though it is not listed on my hard drive) and it won't download.

I was excited about the new maps, but this is frustrating me. If my credit card was charged for Maps that I never got, I will be pissed!

If you goto the Bungie.net boards there are mixed reviews, but Way Too Many People couldn't download the content.

So I administered the push 'A' a buttload of times technique... I thought that if I was maybe standing on my head, or drinking a beer while trying beerchug.gif beerchug.gif (not recommending mixing those last two... I got beer on my shirt)... To no avail.
Where's the Major on this?  If it was just a traffic issue, I'd think He might just say so....

I'll try this, however, I don't understand why it would work...

P.S. I'm rolling w an unmodded 360.  Has anyone been able to investigate a hardrive explore via pc for the new maps?
