 Fall update slated for December 4
Fall update slated for December 4
Published by: shark2th on Saturday, December 01, 2007
Tagged: Xbox 360,



With the Xbox 360's fall update slated for December 4, Microsoft has been stringing gamers along on what, exactly, the firmware upgrade will contain.

Thus far, the console maker has confirmed that the update will include the Xbox Originals service, which allows games from Microsoft's first-generation console to be downloaded in full for $15 apiece over Xbox Live. The update will also include Family Timer, which lets parents or neglected significant others allot a specified daily or weekly playtime limit. What will not be in the update, however, is IPTV functionality, though the publisher said the service remains in the awnings.

Microsoft also noted today that more information on the Xbox 360 dashboard update will be made available later this week.

Taking its cues from online social-networking sites, Microsoft revealed that the latest layer of the impeding dashboard update will let Xbox Live users view other members' friends lists. The new functionality is optional and subject to certain qualifications. Although those aged 18 and older will by default be able to view the friends lists of everyone, those over 13 are limited to the lists of those they've already added as friends. Those wishing for their list to remain private can also turn off the ability altogether.
