I was hoping for way more video support but i guess theres always the fall update. I also feel that the new MSN feature needs some tweaking already.

Messenger in 360 is in its first phase. User feedback is important. I find it really cool though.

Lack of Divx support seems to be the biggest lowdown to people, but they never promised it, just rumors. Lets hope it comes with next update, when ever it is.

Diselage7006d ago

Another thing i don't understnd is when you put a game in it now says "play Crackdown" or whatever game you have in. What about offering that feature for DVD's, it only makes sence.

FreeMonk7006d ago

Lack of major media support like DIVX, plus it's still not modder proof.

According to sources, backups are still working on firmware upgraded drives, worst still on the old firmware, not the new 5.3 firmware that was available to conquer it.

I wonder if MS can ever solve that problem!

donscrillinger7006d ago

can somebody tell me how to make these videos work or something .or does all the movies got to be mpeg4

Diselage7006d ago

They have to be exactly what the article said, other wise they won't work. It sucks.

gta_cb7006d ago

i still think this update has done alot of good things, one thing i was woundering is, when someone sent me a message on MSN (on the 360) i had to open the chat bit like on private chat, i dont know how to make it look like it did on that interview, where there is a little box at the bottom of the screen... how do i do this?

donscrillinger7006d ago

"Gaming’s Biggest Fighting Franchise"

Press X to (seriously) doubt.

Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.

And then MK1 killed it again.

15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.

However, Rob didn't just rest on his family's 8-bit laurels. From leading major LEGO franchises at TT Games to tackling the high-stakes world of technical porting at Huey Games, Rob has carved out a unique path in an ever-evolving industry. In this candid interview Rob to discussed the burden and beauty of a family legacy, the technical "scar tissue" left by the ambitious Hydrophobia, and why porting a masterpiece like Inscryption to consoles is far more than a simple copy-paste job.
