I just did the whole update thing.

Shit is hella like a Wii.

And for some reason I'm missing 40 microsoft points...

I don't know why.

But anywho.

Shit is kind of cool. I'll try and upload the dude I made once I figure out how.

Anyone else do it?

And for the people who ran hacked 360's, did you get the boot?

i just got off 30 minutes ago and didn't get the update. i'll probably try turning it back on again, and play a game, maybe i'll get a update from doing that. good lookin'.

neither of my consoles got banned, and i actually like the new dashboard its alot easier to see friends online and create groups for games that used to be a pain in the ass (dont care much for the wii avatars tho) :-/. And missing MP is a pretty common bug, typically if you click on your profile it will show a different number than whats displayed on the dashboard usually off my like 20-75 points

I think it looks cool. I havent messed with the party thing but im guessing that once you get into a party with a bunch of other people it will alow you to stay in chat while in dashboard or in game?

can you believe this shit lol

http://i34.tinypic.com/2hqrm7c.jpg


in an attempt to foil microsoft's plans of a flawless nxe netflix launch, columbia pictures (a studio that's owned by sony) has made sure that its entire netflix movie catalog is blocked from streaming to the xbox 360. How rude!

According to joystiq (and confirmed by mtv multiplayer) netflix has pulled all columbia pictures content from the xbox 360 instant view library due to "licensing problems." but, wouldn't you know, all the blocked content can still be viewed online and through all other netflix enabled tv devices except for the 360. Netflix hopes to license all the currently blocked content to the xbox 360 in the near future. Now, that just isn't very nice of you sony, haven't you been taught to share?

I love the new dashboard. So many new features. If you press the guide button it actually shows the life of your wireless controller battery. Something that I wished they put in a long time ago. Everything has easier access. I really thought this was going to be a flop but its pretty nice.

Yeah I think the WII like avatars are the only lame part of the whole update, I understand where they were coming from but it feels like a cheap ripoff. I also think its not as appealing to the audience Xbox 360 generally is geared towards (unlike the WII for instance geared towards younger kids). Overall though microsoft owned it this time:snoop:

yes i have, to be honest its probably faster if your semi confident to just fix it yourself. My launch box got the RROD and microsoft took care of it. It just takes time like 2-4 weeks for complete turn around. its actually pretty simple to fix though. And if you dont feel like poking into the xbox you could do the towel trick also :s101:

Seems that Microsoft did a much better job releasing such a big update.

Unlike Nintendo with their Wii.

I think that's why everyone wasn't able to download the update at the same time.

not all are covered under warranty, microsoft could charge as much as $130 i believe depending on the serial # on the box

3 rings covered under warranty.

The reason that they delayed this release is cause the warranty was running out on a lot of the 360's. 3 rings happens a lot after updates...

i didn't really get the whole party thing. a friend invited me, and all it was was a chat i believe. i like the new dashboard though, everything is faster and not slow like the last one. i will wait for the "home" that sony ps3 is bringing out.

oh yeah, i almost freaked out after the update. my xbox made some weird noise like it was slowing down, but it was all good[no red rings]! w00t!

so how do you guys stream HD content to the 360? i just made the jump from XBMC, and i'm finding the 360 has no support for MKV video, which is what most HD rips seem to be. what program should i be using? i really want to watch iron man.
