According to the official blurb, yesterday’s Xbox dashboard update<\/a> didn’t add anything of real consequence to the console (unless you’re the only person on the planet who thinks Internet Explorer is a good browser), but maybe the un<\/em>official feature list is much more useful – over on NeoGAF, a user has posted a screenshot<\/a> showing that USB HDD support has apparently doubled from 16 GB to 32 GB.<\/p>\n

Of course, this is still officially unofficial for the moment, but the size limit increase may or may not be related to Halo 4’s somewhat controversial 8 GB mandatory installation for multiplayer.<\/p>\n

Regardless of the reasons for it, the added space should be a very welcome upgrade for those people who have old Xbox consoles with no hard drive, or people with the new Xbox “S” console with only 4 GBs of storage, or people like me who have already used up most of the 250 GB hard drive on their regular Xbox consoles. Everybody wins.<\/em><\/p>\n
