This is starting to be a running joke. 4 months after purchase finally a patch and no cigar. Meaning at least another 2 months before this gets fixed in a next patch, if at all. I'm starting to think the next xbox might come out before this gets fixed and we'll have to wait for microsoft to introduce backwards compatibility on that console before we finally get to play this. It's more funny than anything else at this point, but the fact the game is now retailing for 1/3 of the price I purchased it for does sting like a bitch though cause I clearly could've waited with buying it.
Anyway for what it's worth me and my buddy are also getting the 0x0041 error code which doesn't help us, but maybe somebody somewhere can use it to do something.
On a side note, it probably is sort of a good thing everyone has the same error.
