[OFFICIAL] X360 Dashboard/Game Updates

[Flash]

How is that possible?

It basically means all the roads are open to explore, without the barriers etc. It's not like you get out the car and start window shopping :p

yeah, it's not like the tracks in PGR4 are stored as separate "map" entities, they have the cities, and the curbs and turn signals are added on top depending on the track layout. heck in PGR3 you could make your own tracks around the cities.

be itneresting to see this cat and ouse gametype though.

Earlier today, I was prompted to download an Update for Rock Band. I didn't see any news posted on this, I was wondering if anyone knew what was on the update?

"The biggest change is that players are no longer restricted to circuits, now able to roam freely around cities. You find full info over on BizarreCreations.com"

Wha-wha-what?!

Sweet!

That's the one thing I like about the NFS games that few others have; free roam cities.

Anyone know when that update will be available?

Many of you have been asking me about the status of the BioShock PC Patch and Xbox 360 Title Update, and I have some good news for you.

Both the BioShock PC Patch and the 360 Title Update will be available next week. In addition to these fixes, we will be releasing downloadable content free on both Xbox Live and for the PC, with the DLC bundled into the PC Patch. A full list of bug fixes and everything included in the DLC will be put up on the Cult of Rapture when the downloads become available.

Will that add the extra 125 GS I presume?

Edit: Yea, looks like 100 GS at least for Brass Balls.

[PiracyX]

The BioShock free content is out on Marketplace. Its the free Plasmids. Also i noticed in my games achievements there is now 51 instead of 50 and its a secret one. I wonder what it is and worth how much?

I just found what it is. The the hell. Complete the game without using the Vita Chamber on hard! Thats insane.

[drunknmunkyuk]

Is there any way we can store the free downloadable content updates seperately from the xbox until we actually buy the games? I know they're mostly only 20mb or so but it certainly all adds up quickly on a 20 gigger what with all the demos, saves and ripped music etc

Looking to do this without buying and overpaying for a seperate 64mb storage unit btw

Well its free forever, so just download it when you get the game. You only need to do that with time limited Free Downloads.

[drunknmunkyuk]

Ok thanks. So if I download them now while they're definitely free, I could delete them from my hdd and even if they're time limited, I could still download again for free in say a years time?

[Pheee]

Once something is downloaded, its flagged as you have it, regardless of time limted free content etc, you can download it at anytime again for free. From you download history.

[drunknmunkyuk]

Thanks, that's what I was hoping for.

As for the update we're about to get, will I have to reset my console or will it automatically pop up with the update download box?

[Pheee]

As far as I know it definetly prompts when you restart your xbox. Maybe when you boot a game, but I dont think just leaving it on dashboard it checks. So best thing is to keep reseting xbox.

[drunknmunkyuk]

Resetting underway! Thanks

[deepfriedmario]

well, i wouldn't keep resetting the xbox... i'd just wait until someone confirms they have it. not like it's anything special to get it exactly when it comes out.

[Pheee]

If in Uk wait until at least 10:30 then its probably available.

[Danrarbc]

Just got promted for the fall update :)

[drunknmunkyuk]

Judging other peoples reactions I'd say most are pretty excited about it and about 90% of XB users who can, are probably sitting at their console now just waiting for the update - me included. especially seeing as I only got my console a few weeks ago and didn't even know DivX support wasn't already implemented into it

[zman982]

Ran a XBOX LIVE connection test and got the update prompt. Console updating as I post this.
