  1. Call of Duty Cold War, cannot update or install game


    I am sure this has been posted several times already but getting a little desperate now.

    Feb an update dropped for COD and it failed. So restarted the console and now the game will not open, update or install.

    At first I thought it was the DVD, so cleaned it. No joy. Replaced the disc for a brand new one, same error.

    Then I tried pretty much everything.

    1. Uninstalled it and tried reinstalling it.It does the packs but not the core game. Says Installtion stopped.

    2. Tried installing it on an external hard drive ( more room) , same error

    3. Then reset the whole console (kept games ), uninstalled the game and reinstalled it, Same error.

    So here we are on, a month later and whilst I can play other games on my xbox, this expensive game is now usless.

    Not sure if this is a developer issue or an xbox issue.

    So help please as I simply have this disc which cost a lot, utterly usless.

    thanks

    :)
