Gonna wait 'til Nov 19th... Don't wanna get screwed whatsoever...
It seems to have some really nice features though. Can't wait!
BTW, it's a bit lame that with a 20GB HDD, you can't install more than one game..... And the price of those stand-alone HDDs...

This seems to be an intentional "after effect" of the beta from what I can tell speaking to people in #fw (probably because some of the new dashboards live features are not finished and would die if live was enabled). Still, it is a little worrying, I'd love some confirmation from a beta participant.
I wouldn't worry though dizturbd.

So do you think the lack of live is down to the udated console or is the gamer tag locked ??
Will my profile still work on my second non updated console ??

Not too worried, just upset that I didn't do any research. Too excited to see it in action. It is very nice, but I can't even create an avatar. The reason I'm upset is because every Friday night is when me and 3 or 4 close friends play games over LIVE. So, for a couple weeks I won't be joining them.

Thinking about putting it on my new xbox but I'm not in the beta, don't want to piss of the live gods ! |
I want this update also. Don't want to wait until the 19th plus I rarely go on Live even though I have a gold account. Are you guys sure that we can connect back to live after this update is released to the public at the end of the month?

One of the reasons why MS was able to detect backups was to do with Jitter checks or something like that, but if you can run games from the HD during game play does this mean less chances of being banned.

Well I decided to do some time tests. When I put GTAIV into the drive it took 1m 25s to load the game (drive is flashed to 8x), installed the game and it took 54s to load.

Just a word of caution for those with banned consoles, I installed the update via usb stick and everything is fine until you try and play a divx file. Seems the update wipes all your video codecs out during installation. In short, if you use your 360 as a media streamer DO NOT update as you will not be able to watch XVID or DIVX movies.

Filename: new xbox experience.torrent
File size: 7.47 MB
Description:
Quote: | BE AWARE IF YOU INSTALL THIS ON YOUR CONSOLE YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO GO ON XBOX LIVE UNTIL NOVEMBER 19TH.
This will not brick your console if it is modded and YES you can copy backups to the hard drive.
Ive done research on this and I also have it on my firmware flashed sammy xbox and everything works.
Copy the $systemupdate folder to the root directory of a USB thumbdrive or to a CD-R to install the update.
Avatars are not included in this which is why the file size is so small. |
I think Im gonna do it!

But what if November 19th comes and this leaked dash never updates..
EDIT: I did it! just copied the folder to the root of my USB flash drive and turned the Xbox on with the flash drive plugged in and it just updated like any ordinary update. OMG this new dashboard is freakin AWESOME!!!!!!! Ultra smooth
I installed fable 2 on the HDD just to check out the feature for myself. DEFINITELY loads the game much faster.

I installed this with my HDD plugged in. Needed to play some LIVE tonight, so I traded 360's with a friend. My TV wouldn't recognize his video settings, so I plugged in my HDD to see if that would help. Still no help. I then went online and found that if you hold Y and the right trigger while the console is booting, the video settings will reset to default. Well, somehow during this process my HDD infected my friend's 360 with the new NXE as well. Now I'm screwed, I give up, and am going to play something offline.

Thats a Joke!!
Now MS added 16:10 but NO 1920x1200 LOL! What a crap!
Is it a Problem to output 1920x1200?...but 1680x150 is the maximum for 16:10.
So all Users with a 24" Ttt can only use the old 1920x1080 (still little bit stretched to 16:10,or black bars).
Now they get black bars in 1680x1050 because the new 16:10 Output is letterboxed! Cant be true! I was waitign for this Update to use 1920x1200 ,finally.
And now i have to use 1920x1080 again. Ok, my iiyama b2403ws scales very good in VGA and the Image looks still very good scaled to 16:10
