if they could do this, just think if it would be possible for them to reach out to every Xbox 360 owner and replace it with an updated Xbox 360 with a blu-ray drive. Maybe more ram too.

How could would that be? Next xbox my ass. Just a dream though.

lol at all of those that yesterday were touting Microsoft has the Light Bringer by replacing future Xboxs that might show problems with the incoming new media disc. lol

Turns out it was the PREVIOUS update that caused malfunntioning in some older xboxs. Well, looks like it took them a while to acknowledge the problem! @_@

More RAM to 40 million xboxes?, never gonna happen

Uhhh... That would be called an Xbox 360 type 2!

BTW, it was an older update that caused the problems.

Agree if you have had ring of death/red dot of death or you know someone who has.

what other update came out?

well i guess since my 360 still works no free upgrade for me :-(

Damageinc845458d ago

I will have to say the wording on it really confused me. I thought it was due to the update tomorrow. I even called tech support and they told me that it was for the update tomorrow. I think there is some broken lines of communication coming out of Microsoft.

Cogan15458d ago

It is because of the new update. What numpty would believe otherwise.

thrasherv35458d ago

Maybe someone whose 360 was messing up before the update?

Cogan15458d ago

Then that would be the same as every other person who had an issue with their xbox before the update.

"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.

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.
