Did everyone else get their 360's set up?? Its pretty bad ass. Streaming Netflix ftmfw!

Thought that was tomorrow. Guess I need to go downstairs and check it out.

I loaded it and like 5 minutes later my box froze. But I restarted it and it works fine now. I like the new stuff but now I gotta relearn it all. No idea where anything is.

My internet is down till friday, but my buddy loaded it up last night. I must say it def. a whole lot different. A-lot more snappy. Im in the same boat as spoogen, in having to re learn everything. Its not that hard though.

Anyone have a list of all of the changes?

I watched some netflix last night on mine it works pretty good. I thought a cool feature was that you can load your games right to your hard drive and play them from there.

How much space does a game take up? I would imaging no more than 5 GB.

I may actually get netflix now.

I think cod4 was like 6.2 gigs. Yeah I usually just stream movies from my computer to my xbox for free but netflix is a lot easier. I don't have to wait for them to download, I don't have to worry about downloading a corrupt torrent file.

Dead thread revival. The update just bricked my XBox. Hooray, right after I finished finals too...now I'm pretty much forced to get back into WoW since I have nothing else to do for a month.

That's weird. My Xbox seems to be running better since the update.

Yes..its available now. Nearly every site I've read said its "terrible" and along the lines of "worst thing EVER."

Netflix on the 360 only lets you watch the "watch instantly" movies through it. Its the same ones you can watch streaming from netflix.com.....Definitely not new releases.

I'm definitely not impressed with the selection for the streaming movies. Pretty damn shitty selection, actually. I'm glad I'm using a free trial... I won't be continuing my membership unless they improve their online selection.
