Xbox 360 Fanboy

I added nothing, and fixed no problems I have! At least they are making updates. I guess we are going to have to wait for more things like downloading in the background. I am happy to see an update, but more was expected...

Glad for any update, but darn it I thought there would be more to it.

Yeah, more was definitely expected.

How about some background downloading? Not having that's a waste.

I was hoping for a camera announcment, or at LEAST backround downloading, I can understand why we can play full 360 games while d/ling, but at least let us nav. our dashboard and friends list.

It's sole purpose was to stop the kiosk disc hack

I still think M$ should add a search feature for music onto the XBMC

I agree, doesn't seem to add much.

The update I'm really waiting on is the Call of Duty 2 patch.

Deffinatly background downloading.. and what's the point of that Vidoe tab on the media blade? All the downloaded vids off the marketplace go into the Trailers tab.

How's about the ability to do more than one thing at a time. I am currently downloading the Full Auto demo have to just sit here and twiddle my thumbs. I mean come on M$! I know you're not known for your multitasking abilities like Apple is, but give me a break... you're not going to make me any more "loyal" to you by giving me a half finished product... and that's what you need, loyalty. You're going to have to do something to get me keep buying games and xbox-live subscriptions (we know that where the profits come from) when PS3 comes out. I might just sell my 360 come Sony's launch day and join all those Dragon Ball Z fans in their Sony support.

Not sure if it applies to the updates of the dashboard, but I want to see a small improvement to the MCE extender mode. The ability to change volume control through the Xbox 360 in software like you can with an MCE PC. Having the volume controls on my "Universal" remote only change TV volume is annoying. I have my system rigged to a set of Creative 6700 6.1 Speakers that can only be controlled manually. With my MCE machine i'd set the volume to a specific level on the speakers then do all the volume changing through the MCE interface. I can't understand why this has been ommitted, its possible with other Extenders.

Some of those videos are the freebies that were included on the hard drive, like the Adidas commercial and the Titanic video.

The patch about saving games after a recovery came too late for me, as I had the "Cannot download from Xbox Live" bug that is/was only fixed by a recovery. It also means I got double rep points for some things. After the recovery, all saves were gone so I got credit again for the achievements. My Gamer score is actually 300 points less than is reported. :-)

this is only a security fix for the kiosk demo.. nothing more!

#10, several people keep saying that. Cant you read? Scroll up to the top of the page and read the article before you comment with your nonsense.

How come on some 360's on the bottom of the blades it says Play: Project Gotham 3 while others just say Play game? Mine just says play game.

BG downloading...agreed.
How about the ability to continuously stream your music while going in and out of games? This is especially frustrating with games in the arcade. I don't wanna have to restart my music everytime I pop in and out of Geometry Wars, Wik, or whatever else.

How bout UNCRIPPILING THE 360'S MEDIA CAPABILITIES! Seriously, why shouldn't we be able to view videos stored on a cd or a thumb drive? The next auto update needs to fix that it is really starting to get frustrating. And I agree with #12 and #5, the only noticable thing this update fixed was the koisk demo hack. C'mon MS!

THis update made my Windows media center remote
un-compatible with the xbox 360!! It used to work perfectly but they have pulled the strings in their favour.
