  1. Extremely Strange Error(booting up GoW2)


    Recently, I've been playing Gears of War 2 with a friend, however yesterday when I loaded in on the 360, it froze at the start screen and I had to reboot the console. I did this again and it occurred for the next 10 or so tries. I thought it might've been
    something to do with my console, so I downloaded the game and bonus content onto my One, but it still kept freezing at the start menu. I gave said friend my account to login to Gears 2 on his 360 under me, but it froze there as well. He can still access the
    game while I can't on my own profile. This isn't some problem associated with any of the consoles from this, so there must be some kind of problem between my account and the game. Any fixes?

    :)

    Gears of War 2 freezing

    I tried deleting all GoW2 files from my 360, reinstalling my gamertag, and then booting up the game with my console disconnected from the internet. No luck. As soon as I sign into my profile, poof, the game locks up.

    I've tried starting the game without the DLC installed on my 360 AND with the DLC installed on my 360. Still, no luck.

  5. I had help from Epic to solve this. There is no easy solution. The reason for it freezing is because my LIVE profile and the server's record of my stats for some reason differed, which caused it to freeze not knowing what to do. The only fix for this issue,
    as many have experienced it first hand, is to purposely reset your Gears 2 statistics on the account, losing all progress. I already did this, since I didn't put too much time into it anyways.
