In order for me to get everything back to normal, I need delete, then re-download the map packs. It's happened about four times already.

Just wanted to report that moving my gamer profile from my MU to my HD did the trick.
Thanks again for your help!

We've seen this happen in the situation where the user has their profile and/or save games on a slow memory stick and they go through the menus as fast as they possibly can.
What ends up happening is that the game thread moves forward before the text loading thread is complete and then text will be missing. This only happens if the DLC text is added to the regular game text.
In theory, if you wait a second or two more before pressing "push the start button" or move your profile to the hard drive, then you should have text on your screens going forward.
When we released the game executable (which hasn't changed since 2009), memory sticks weren't part of the test matrix, and the DLC loading times weren't known. There shouldn't be any missing file issues.
