Xbox 360 Spring Update
You’ve heard the rumors for a few weeks, but the truth can now be told: There is a major Xbox 360 dashboard update coming in “about a week.†I have been playing around with it for a couple of days now, and it’s very nice. Background downloading, boot to the dash option, and Marketplace improvements are just a few of the new features and enhancements that are in this update. I can’t say exactly when it will be released (they’re still working on the exact release date/time)

It'd be nice of all the stuff on the Marketplace loses its 'NEW!' tag and is moved from the New Games Downloads section after a day or so.Flojomojo wrote:I'm glad everything will be a bit more organized. It was getting crazy on the Marketplace, and I've had too many Arcade games for a quick refresh for a long time now.

Perfect Dark Zero demo now available:

Major Nelson site wrote:You can now download the Perfect Dark Zero demo from the Xbox Live Marketplace. This demo will allow single player or co-op play. This free demo is available in all Xbox Live regions.
The demo DOES allow Xbox Live Play.
Here is what is in this demo, directly from the PDZ Team:
Outpost, the story mode level included in the Demo, is playable co-op over Live.
Plaza (a new map included in the upcoming DLC) is playable over Live in Team Killcount and Infection game types. (Bots are included in both game modes.) The disabled Live features are Leaderboards and Custom Match. Quick Match works for both game types.
Incidentally the 'NEW!' tag is also used to let you know a title you previously downloaded has been updated. So it might be worth re-downloading them.

Nothing is worth the effort you put into it.
