Zathura Halo 2 xbox 360

Hello,

I am ok on computers but not the most confident. I bought my son a Star Wars XBOX 360 and it's been working fine. However, I recently bought him two games : ZATHURA and HALO 2 but I can't get either of them to work on his console.

The games are on a PAL console and the console itself is a PAL , so no problems there.

I checked the backward compatability list and found both games do play on the XBOX 360

But I can't get them to play !!

Do any of you have an idea of how I get the games to play on the console ? As far as I know, the console is fully upto date with its software....maybe I need to further update any software...if I do, can you explain how I do this step by step please ?

Thank you

:)

Greetings!

A few questions, hopefully I can help!

1. These are physical (PAL) Xbox 360 games being played ON the (Pal) Xbox 360?

2. If so, have you tried any other games since the error has started?

3. Does a message appear/lights blink when you try to play them or do they just not initialize?

Thanks!

 

Thanks for the reply.....Yes it is a physical disc, both the discs and console are PAL.

I have played loads of games since trying Zathura, it just comes up with an error message.

No blinking lights ,just a message saying the disc needs an upgrade

Thanks
