Anyone having trouble with Kinect Sports Rivals Preseason, or any other game not playing after installing?

I installed Kinect Sports Rivals Preseason and have yet to play it.  After the first install, the game froze on the loading screen (though the loading icon continued to rotate).  I removed the game and re-installed.  After the second install, the game would not even go into load mode (rhyming unintended).  Upon the third re-install, I got a screen that said something about an update.  It then proceeded to load mode and then stopped and returned to the Home screen.  The result of the fourth re-install was identical to the second re-install, and the fifth was identical to the first.  Because the results are different, I do not meet Ben Franklin's definition of insanity.  Anyone else have this issue, whether or not its with Kinect Sports Rivals Preseason?

I've had a few problems with some of my games, but I've been able to resolve them by uninstalling everything (all DLC, which, if you have a Day One Code, will show up under Add-Ins after pressing the menu button when highlighting the game and will reappear in the same location when you need to reinstall them), restarting, and then a clean install of the game.  I then started the game before re-installing the DLC.  This happened with Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag (I couldn't play multiplayer, then I couldn't play at all).  No problems with this game after that.

NOTE: it seems a bad or incomplete install will cause problems with the game (which seems obvious).  This needs to be confirmed but my experience is that a bad install of one game or DLC will affect other subsequent DLC installs for that game.

Same thing happened with me, but in the demo version this game. I waited more than 10 minutes to get back to normal, but it didn't.

Hey there Hockyed, sorry to hear about all of the install problems you've experienced with that game! Are you still unable to play? Let's give this a shot:

  • Delete that game one more time.
  • Hold the power sensor on your console for 5 full seconds to shut down the console.
  • Let it turn off completely, and then restart it.
  • Now redownload the game completely and give it a go once it's installed.


Let us know the result!

I'm having the same problem.  I tried installing it 2 times & it's still frozen on the first screen with start button.  Gotta be an issue with game.  Please have them fix the problem.

Just got an email with a code from Xbox for $20.00. Apparently my PPC code was invalid.  I'm reinstalling now.  Will post the results after I get a chance to try it out.

Okay, finally able to get to the title screen.  My suggestion is to talk to Xbox support and see if they will send you a code.

For anyone that gets to the Main Screen where the game says "Start", but cannot get any further.

The solution is to press Right on the D-Pad to move the cursor to "Start" (it should have a glow around it), and then press A.

For some reason the joystick is not active in the menus for Kinect Rivals.
