The annual fall update for Xbox Live is up and ready for download. The update boasts improved features like a new dashboard (for everyone), and for Americans stuff like ESPN services, a Zune Music Pass, Netflix Search and more.

Regular users of Xbox Live will also be treated to improved voice chat quality, it'll be easier to create a new Gamertag right on the console and wireless network connectivity.


As previously detailed, the update features enhanced Zune integration, family programming, sleek Avatars and soothing music for dashboard dummies.

More details at Xbox Live's Major Nelson.

Thats just your TV, theres no problem with the colors.


I think it was unnecessary, but i dont have a problem with it. It'l be neat to see the Kinect hub once Kinect releases.

Just tried to download it, wouldn't work, so I head over to xbox live support and it's crashed. Blah.

 

[Benstamania]

It's apparently getting hammered with people all downloading at once.

the avatar stuff wont update for me. Kind of frustrating

Eh, not a fan of the new dashboard. Looks odd to me.

Did you go into edit your avatar? I did and it just updated my stuff.

Maybe I haven't had many issues because I updated early this morning..

Not too sure about the new look yet. Maybe it needs time to grow on me.

I tried to do it at like noon so it was probably busy. I'll try again later
