Midnight everywhere?

Is the NXE gonna drop in each separate time zone at midnight, or is Gates & Co. releasing it midnight PST?

I would assume that the update will go live for everyone at 12AM PST like usual.

My XBL needs to get working properly for this. I really don't know why, but i'm looking forward to this all new dashboard. Probably because I don't have a job.

I got the update today since they gave it out to everyone who signed up for early access now...it takes a little getting used to, but I actually like it and it definitely doesn't take the hour it took to load up all my XBLA games like before.

Are you sure it just didn't get banned in AUS? ...Those avatars can where some pretty tight clothing. That could be a bit too sexual for you Aussies to take in...

2PM in the UK at least.

I expect 10AM UK. Just like their XBLA releases. Releasing it in the afternoon adds to the load of people downloading it. The earlier the better.

Less likely to have a build up of people trying to get it = Less likely to have server crash and brick Xboxes.

2 AM PST.  So do the math.  That's when they'll start rolling it out.

Spoken like someone who has probably never watched AUS television. They may be averse to VIOLENT content, but last I recall even their *commercials* have nudity.
