Halo 3 won't load

monkai666 · 26 Sep 2007 at 13:40

I just bought my legendary edition halo but whenever i try to play anything it just says 'failure to load', even the single player won't work. I tried downloading one of the bungie videos but even that fails to load when i try to watch it.

It will only load up to 29 percent on anything, anybody else have this problem?

It might be that your disc is scratched. It looks like you may need to take it back for a replacement.

My brother had this problem, in the end he took his HDD back to the shop and they replaced it and now it works fine

problems with the tins meant some discs have escaped their clasps and been rattling around, thus causing scratching

Well, i phoned microsoft and after about 30 minutes all i got was a pointless "go to the website and get a disc replacement form sir". The shop couldn't do it as they had to swap a legendary for a legendary and didn't have another one. I hate waiting.

Seems like there is a batch of Halo 3 disks which are bad. Read http://www.eurogamer.net/article.php?article_id=84358
