In-game graphic breakdown

Strange problem- my Xbox 360 functions fine in dashboard, but when I try to play Halo 3 or Battlefield the in game graphics go blurry, flicker, and show their wire frame roots.

This just started last night, after thousands of times playing these games.

Sounds like an issue with the graphics card in the system. Call up Xbox 360 Support, or return it for a new one.

After installing, re-installing, the game still flashes constantly on both single and multi-player modes...Not a directX or pc problem. defective product? please advise

Its likely that your graphics card doesnt support it, or it is struggling. You should try to lower your graphic settings from within the game. If it still flashes, you should try getting a new graphics card with at least 512MB of memory. A Nvidia 8800GT would suffice.

I have the same problem

Try using a DVD/CD lens cleaner (found at walmart/best buy).

The games are read by the lens, and processed through the internal graphics system. But the Dashboard ( and possibly the guide too) don't have to go through the lens.

If the cleaner doesn't make a difference try this-

Start your 360 with Halo 3 in the tray.
On the XBOX Dashboard, scroll to the section where you would press "A" to launch the game, but instead press "Y".
If your 360 is up to date, you should have the option to save the game to your hard-drive. -Do it
Hopefully, it will download without the static issue.

If that doesn't work, contact Microsoft.

Xbox 360 cant play newer xbox 360 games only older xbox 360 games

when the new games came out, the console updates itself when you go to play the game. Look on the back of your console at the numbers. (not serial or part) You should see 2006 or 2007. It is most likely that you have an 2006 which means that your graphics card isnt strong enough to handle the graphics from these games. If you call up microsoft and tell them that the console had the 3 red rings (even though it doesnt) They will take your console, repair it, and update it all for free.

Graphics problem on Xbox 360

I think this is less of an isolated issue but a universal one. As Halo 2 (and I'm assuming the version of Medal of Honour you speak of) are original xbox games, these can be prone to graphics distortion due to being emulated. I often find my Halo 2 campaign mode sometimes "ghosts" or leaves certain outlines stuck on the screen, which is irritating but nothing too major. If this happens in any designated xbox 360 game, search the web for similar problems with the game itself, if not give Microsoft a call. Bring food, it's a long call wait :)
