Topic: Xbox LIVE Update Preview Program Posted: 09-22-2010 at 2:13pm |

I am happy to announce that we’re doing an Xbox 360 System Update Preview program for our next release, and the opportunity to sign up is now available. The Preview Program will give you the chance to check out ESPN on Xbox LIVE, Zune music, Netflix search, the new Xbox LIVE dashboard, and new updates to Zune video and Family Settings on your Xbox 360*. Much like we did last year, you’ll need to visit the Microsoft Connect site from this link and sign in with your Windows LIVE ID that is connected to your Xbox LIVE Gamertag. Once you complete the survey that is presented to you, the Connect site will notify you immediately if you’ve been accepted. A couple of points before you head off to register:

Yea I forgot to mention that. Anyone else have a limited Live dashboard? Pretty much limited to playing games (all of the marketplace stuff was gone). The EA Servers are up fortunately.

Assuming you're one of the lucky few who received an invite to the Xbox 360 Preview Program from Major Nelson, you should see your system get updated sometime tomorrow. For everyone else, it'll happen sometime within the next few weeks, |
