I know what you mean , I am on my 3rd and its having a lot of problems. This is one time I got the in store warranty.
It may not be anywhere near spring in Australia, but we still get the benefits of Microsoft's latest upgrade for Xbox Live. May 7th (so probably May 8th for us) will mark a new era in the Xbox 360 dashboard. Some of the new features will dazzle you, some might not seem like such a big deal, but they all add up to make one big nice upgrade. Here's what we know for sure:
Windows Live Messenger contacts can now be added to your Xbox Live friends list
Your user interface will now get its own blade
You can add up to 600 MSN Messenger contacts
Basic text chat with MSN contacts
Chat with as man as six friends while gaming or watching videos
MSN contacts will know your gamertag and what game you're playing
Xbox Live Marketplace gets its own blade
XBL Marketplace blade changes depending on advertising content, and what season it is
Xbox 360 Achievements show more detail on-screen when unlocked, how many points and what the achievement is called
Xbox 360 automatic shut down
Low-power download mode, shuts down all fans making Xbox 360 extremely quiet
Option to turn Xbox 360 off when all downloads are finished
Option to view partially downloaded video files
Numerous other features with achievements, downloads, and friends list
There are also rumours that the spring update will allow you to see what game you have in your disc drive without having to open it up. Currently it just says "Play game". Voice chat with MSN contacts is also planned, possibly in the next minor update.
