crashes and hangs after pressing menu button

I bought this game yesterday, and was super stoked to play it. I installed and updated it, but when it came time to press the menu button to start, it stops and makes a noise for about 20 seconds, and crashes to the home screen of the xbox. I re-installed it before i went to bed and installed the update this morning. Ive cleared the cache a few times and still nothing. I paid for this game, and want to be able to play it, so any advice as to what i should do?
Ive seen other people with this issue, but no responses.
Thanks!

Yes I have the same issue where it crashes after I hit the menu button and then makes a noise for a while an then resets itself. Looking for any help on this.
