i dunno why someone disagreed with you, i am now going to be able to watch all my movies and tv series off windows media player 11 streaming onto the Xbox 360 :) easier then having to over to the PC then just controlling it with the controller :)

Does anyone know when any providers will be utilizing IPTV? I am very excited about that feature and seeing it in the new update only get's me that much more excited. DIVX and XVID support is great! Way to go Microsoft!

In Europe BT is the provider of IPTV. You will soon be able to buy the 360 as apart of their BT Vision pack.

"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.
