One thing I already noticed was that the netflix quality has definiteyl gone UPPPPP!!!! YAYYYYY
I only have a 1.5Mbps conenction so this is a godsend to me. I was getting 2 bars on SD stuff and 1 bar on HD stuff.
Add a bar to each of those, the resolution is very noticeable, especially if you got to native mode. Also, why the f*ck did they change the control button from Y to A. Why?
Instand queue stuff is great too, but I have to see all this like Pride and Prejudice and like some ramdom BBC romance thing. Shoudl have never registered my mom's laptop on my account.
if anyone else want to try out the party add me, MrOldboy. I dont have my mic with me but I'd be interested in trying it out to see how dumb it is.
Dissapointed. The only notable change for me is the Games on Demand service, and the prices are ridiculous. 349 kronor is $40 bucks. I assumed the prices were going to be at $20 in Sweden too. :(
Yes the Games of Demand prices are ridiculous. Kameo & Perfect Dark Zero for $19.99 and Call of Duty 2 for $29.99?! Those were launch titles!
I didn't see too much of a big change but I did need to reactivate my Netflix account for the console. Now that part is a beautiful addition. Netflix is really sweet on the console, now. Now if they could just add some sort of search functionality, then it would be perfect.
I didn't bother looking at the avatar store because I won't pay for silly stuff like virtual clothing of a goofy implementation like this or Home.
The update is sort of neat; I like the rating feature and the avatar marketplace, even if the prices are outrageous. I am not going to be using Games on Demand if the prices remain how they are. I wanted to buy LEGO Star Wars: TCC but there is no way I am paying $30 for a two-year old compilation of 4 year old games.
So far I find the avatar marketplace very amusing. I just bought the guitar prop. Although some of the stuff in it are sorta pricey so i may stick with the 80 - 160 Microsoft points stuff.
" Literally just updated, for people outside america, it's not all that exciting. no netflix... "
Not that exciting? It makes the load times massively faster. "
Yeah but but Netflix doesn't exist outside of the US. So having a better Netflix being the best part of the update is pretty useless if you're not American.
" Check this out on the Australian update... Mass Effect - AUD$99.95 (USD $83.00) <-----RIGHT HERE! LOOK AT THIS SHIT! Rockstar Table Tennis - AUD$69.95 (USD$58.00) Call Of Duty 2 AUD $49.95 (USD$41.00) "
I'm really trying to keep a straight face. That's pretty unbelievable, and this service is going no where if they don't come down to reality.
Any idea when Sky sports, twitter and facebook is coming thought it was supposed to be in here? What gives, outside the US this update is a waste of fucking time! Why can you rate stuff you don't own?
