Anyone else get that today? What's included?

Does the update make the console less boring?

=)

Does it fix the lack of good exclusives?

Does it fix the RROD epidemic?

You're a full on joke character now?

I'm playing Braid, it rulz.

One nice thing about the 360 update is it took like 25 seconds.

Just preparing for Avatars...

A few minutes ago, the team released a system update for the Xbox 360 over Xbox LIVE. Sometime over the next few hours when you sign in to Xbox LIVE you’ll recieve a prompt to accept this mandatory update. This update contains code to ‘prepare for future growth of the service.’ There are no other changes or enhancements in this update…in other words no new features.

To be clear: This is not the new Xbox experience update. That will come in the Fall

i think you got the ps3 and xbox 360 mixed up with the above points because these are ps3 specific issues.

Im finding Abrader extra confusing these days now that he has periods where he posts normal threads. Then I walk into threads like these and he's bonkers.

demi · « **Reply #10 on:** August 06, 2008, 01:45:22 PM »

It's just one of those silent updates in preparation of the Fall update

When the update came out I was searching for a match in SC4, and it froze my system. When I got the update thing, I just assumed that SC4 was a buggy piece of crap and somehow screwed up my version or something.

How long did your guys' update take? Mine took like 1 minute. They really need to fix this shit. And the lack of install? Who's fucking idea was that? Honestly, at this rate, I might as well buy a PS3.
