Not bad, thanks for the info.

**TeamOverload** · 12-05-2007, 12:14 PM

Can we actually use Xbox Live features without waiting 5 minutes for everything to load today?

Edit: Changed my gamerpic last night. The change still isn't reflected in my gamercard...

Yeah not bad, still though.... It's good but I'd rather rent from BB or Rogers video for those prices.

610 Points or $8.71 (CDN) for HD material, for 2 days.

The dashboard is a bit glitchy now...

**user friendly** · 12-05-2007, 05:01 PM

I suspect a patch in the next few days.

**Ratjar3** · 12-05-2007, 05:06 PM

Haven't had problems with it..

**GW2** · 12-05-2007, 07:22 PM

I hate this update. After installing it my dashboard will freeze up when sending a message, or trying to exit back into my game. For some reason all my games now lag when uploading high scores and best times on xbox live, it used to take less then 2 seconds to upload my best track time in Forza, now it takes more then a minute! Same with any other game I play. divx support is ok, but I wont use it. I dont use my consoles for videos much.

And yes there should be a patch coming in the next few days (at least i hope) because of the glitch with the messenger service. Apperantly if you change your windows id associated with the account it will remove all of your info on the official xbox live forums.

When there's Netflix and Blockbuster online, the Video marketplace is basically useless...

I'm not sure about netflix, but blockbuster takes, decades to ship out bluray movies. I didn't even bother to rent any hd-dvd movies, figuring that it would probably take equally as long.

One thing that sucks is that when you play Originals you still cant use the Guide

I never understood this. makes no sense.

**Shatterdome** · 12-06-2007, 02:30 PM

I had probs with the dashboard the first day as well, loading abit slower at startup and when going to the marketplace......however it seems after you use it for awhile it fixes itself up(or after everyone downloaded it), as not my startup is actually faster....there is no loading of pictures and info when in marketplace, they just are there...and I havn't had anymore probs msg'ing people or using friends of friends....and the guide is ALOT faster to bring up and put away....it can almost keep up with my keypresses now, which would be nice...

I agree the moviemarketplace is a little expensive....but if you have a good internet connection and are bored, just being able to watch some HD movie/tv show of your choice would be nice....however, they need to bring it down alot, or let you keep the movie...because $8 bucks is dumb...especially when you waste so much of your bandwidth downloading them....

**Mister Chief** · 12-06-2007, 02:32 PM

Probably has to cache everything again.

**Anti-QuickJay** · 12-06-2007, 03:58 PM

Yea, My dashboard is flawless now. No more freezes, loading times have gotten shorten, I'm lovin' it.

**TeamOverload** · 12-06-2007, 06:10 PM

Same here, great new update Microsoft

**PSPwned** · 12-06-2007, 09:19 PM

Not to be an achievement Wh.... "Hog"... but why doesn't Microsoft add at least a few minor achievement points to the Xbox Original Downloads....

I always seem to strive for achievement points when they are available for grabs.

**Macca** · 12-06-2007, 09:30 PM

Because it would mean that Microsoft/The game devs would have to edit the games source code. Here all they're doing is sticking an ISO onto a server.

**Mister Chief** · 12-06-2007, 10:06 PM

And some devs wouldn't be able to do it.

FASA can't go back and add achievements to crimson skies since they don't exist anymore.

Or maybe the source was lost or deleted.

**almadawarrior** · 12-09-2007, 05:34 PM

i do not plan on using some of the new features , but the dashboard speed it's incredible just like the new dashboard menu, i have no complains about this update
ps. ms please add, mgs2:substance, burnout revenge, far cry instincts and marc ecko's getting up to the backwards list, it isn't ask to much is it?
