Updates are usualy all good. Hoever what about some new features? no one cares for the litte tweaks and patches. How about adding Divx/Xvid support that will add to the 360’s features. How about adding more real features instead of the ability to browse a friends list. thats lame, anyone who is adding a friend knows them from word of mouth or have played against someone already and simply add them.

I am paying for this service and its time to get some features instead of patches to keep hackers out. and usless quirks. The PSN even though its usless is looking better all the time. its free so what can i say? Moneysoft give us some new features. stop bogarting the online media for USA, give us IPTV, Internet browser, Flash and shockwave plugins etc. Being a center of media, its pretty limited i have to say.

And dont any fanboys compare PSN to Live, Live is still better, any paid service should be superior. and it is. I just want more features.

Indeed, this is about a months worth of coding at best.
Pretty pathetic really for Microsoft which has more coders than it realistically knows what to do with, and, of course, a limitless operational budget.
When are we going to see some of the basic functionality addressed: opening up file formats / optional drive speeds / IPTV / proper video marketplace in EMEA / things that actually make the unit more ‘valuable’ and useful.
They want it to be at the centre of peoples home entertainment, GREAT, then give it the functionality to do that!
Sort it out!

While i do agree with the frequency of the updates being to few and far between, I don’t think we should be complaining about what is included in the updates.

A few of the updates early on, such as those bricking consoles, and just small updates here and there were disappointing.
But lately, how can you complain about getting the video marketplace added? The new feature to be able to download original xbox games? Or the service being flooded with tons of new game demos constantly?

While i agree alot of the little updates such as “boot xbox to dashboard or dvd” is not worth waiting a year for, i do think that there are some great updates that have already come and our on their way.

Comparing to the ps3 on the update platform i don’t think is a fair comparison. They are almost completely different styles of service. Each with their own pro’s and con’s.

I agree it is a disappointment. I like how the ps3 is updated regularly with actual good and exciting things, where the xbox, which we pay monthly to pay online gets pretty lame updates like twice a year
