Xbox 360 Dashboard update released

Well I'm glad Paypal will be supported. Much more secure than sharing my credit card details :) We all know how the PS3 incident went.

The new dash will also hopefully prevent users from modifying the firmware to play copied games :)
 
Mine was a bit of a stuff up, got it on the 18th, installed... played and all was fine, then in the evening my console had a wobble and said it must be restarted... then it wanted to download it again. All has been fine since...

I feel so Beta right now :-)
 
I have not updated mine yet. I'm a bit skeptic about the new disc format as a minority of ppl complained that they got disc read errors. Apparently it only occurs on the much older consoles.

I read that if it does break your console, MS will replace it for you. But I also heard that it was for some other update, not the disk format one. Someone more clued up can probably give you better info though
 
Ok. Yes the one article I read the guy reported the fault and MS told him he will get a brand new slim console asap. I'll keep my console unplugged for now. I don't have gold anymore so online doesn't matter to me right now.
 
I haven't had any problems yet, in fact... I haven't even had an update :/ so whatever is headed my way I hope it's not too bad.

This update doesn't cause that error, the previous update does :)
 
Can anyone confirm its availability locally?? " ... make its way around the globe ... "

Quite a mission get my xbox to an internet connection, don't want to go through it all for nothing.

I haven't had my XBOX for a while, but as far as I remember the updates were released for all users at the same time. So you shouldn't have any problems. (Granted, I did have a US account though.)

The update should appear online on Xbox.com's support page.
 
I am indeed starting to miss my XBOX. Maybe I shouldn't have sold it afterall. Paypal certainly would have sweetened the deal.
 
i am yet to receive the update... no matter how hard i try... i like to keep my devices on the latest firmware, must be a compulsive disorder :)
 
I was aware of an update but i was unsure what it did. Paypal im sure will be a welcome additiion to the 360. Nobody likes giving out credit card details anymore as somebody above said
 
Haven't even switched on my Xbox for a while now. I'll have to get it updated today and see if it still works.
