The Major Nelson blog has stated the spring 360 firmware update is out anytime now (microsoft have said you coul dbe prompted at some point over the next few weeks to update).
Other than what has already been mentioned regarding the upgrading disc reader it will also be adding paypal as a payment option to making purchases on the console.

Destructoid are suggesting that 360's have been overheating as well from playing LA Noire and that rockstar have now admitted it's there fault.

So a few days has passed now and i was thinking. Apart from the faults with what happened before in this final episode i did love the final scene.
I think it was the music which did it for me!
I'm considering it!
The way i'm looking at it is this:
Game: £40
Collector things: £20 (as the limited edition is £60)
Model: £40
The model looks good quality and i spent a bit more than £40 on a model from Star Trek (First Enterprise from the movies) And i like models!
Just bagged myself some extra months as well! Extended mine by 5 months before it stopped letting me, going to try again in a bit though to see if it lets me try some more. Big thanks!
I had the limited edition one pre-ordered so i could get the beta code but that figure looks ace, i'm very tempted to super treat myself and go for the epic edition...
Three new dlc add ons are on the way for anyone interested.
They are going to be 800ms points each it seems.

I didn't watch that whole vid just bits but i gotta say i am loving the look of this!
Love how they seem to be taking full advantage of the bottom screen.
:D:D
My failure rate stands at one each, so i have a pretty even experience.
Wii: Internal Wifi just broke one day
360: Red Ring
PS3: Graphics fucked up
All got sorted under warrenty.
I have now finished Mass Effect 2 again, pretty much doing everything + dlc!
So i now have a complete 'Mike Shepard' spanning ME1 through ME2 and ready for ME3
Now i just have to wait a year...
<Cries at them prices>
Wish i waited a month now before buyone one... ! Could have bought myself another game with that price difference! (i paid £190)
Id say £30 is pretty good for this as well.
Yeah the game has been out since 1998 but it has been pretty much remaked to a degree with 3d effect, colours, more items in enviroments and all for a new console which has not been out very long.
You only got a code if you did something before a set date which i believe has passed.
I have never been good at gears online either on 1 or 2 although i seem to be doing better in this! Most of my kills to come from the retro lancer now though!
