New sound effects

I like all the little noises as they are. I hope they don't change the start up animation and sound.

Support for 1440x900 and 1680x1050

Noel Gallagher · 22 Oct 2008 at 16:20

Aye, that resolution support works out great for me

interesting reading that remembering how it was back in the old days, looking back makes you realize how all these updates we've already had has improved our 360's so much.

Yeah, tbh I can't really remember fully what the original dash on the 360 was like when it was released? I mean I know it was reasonably similar to what it is now (minus the market place blade) and I also remember it being a bit slow and clunky im places, the arcade game list especially! but just goes to show how much effort MS have put into it to make it faster/better and to add improvements etc

I am quite lookin forward to NXE, not so fussed on the whole avatar bit but 8-way chat, new resolutions added, saving games to the HDD and hopefully a faster and easier way to navigate the "blades" or what ever they will be is welcomed

Microsoft is offering a free 512MB memory card or discounted reconditioned 20GB hard drive to users owning a Core or Arcade system to allow them to download the update at http://xboxstorageupgrade.com/

Nice! (although i have a 120Gb)

Not sure how I feel about this NXE. Seems a bit childish at first glance.

Herojuana · 22 Oct 2008 at 22:31

No 1920x1200 support? Or would that just not work anyway?
