Quite the opposite for me prior to the update it took forever for my guide blade to come onscreen but now it just pops up and loads everything. I love the update.

Seems alright to me. The xbox originals deal is stupid though. The amount of space those games call for means you practically have to own a 120 gig hd. No way I can suck up 4g on my itty bitty 20 gigabyte hard drive just to play psychonauts.

I like it... However the only thing I don't like so much is the new Marketplace layout.

I just got my 360 a couple weeks ago, so I didn't really get used to the old layout. So basically it doesn't really itch me the wrong way

I think that was a really good move on MS's part. Atleast MAYBE the media will have something good to say about video games lol.

I love it. DivX and XVid support is brilliant and the age restriction part is good. Hopefully now I'll be able to play the new Halo 3 maps with people my own age!

I think it improved on alot of things. Sometimes the response time is kinda slow, but it was like that alot before the update. Hopefully the spring update will fix that.

I'm 15 and I say the new age thing is BS. I friggin' paid for the game, and I'm more mature than half of you 18+ people out there.

Well, I'm getting a 360 for christmas so it doesn't matter because I don't have an account right now.

My Dad just went into Fred Myer and BOUGHT HALO 3! (I paid for it) YES, IT'S APPROVED! I HAVE THE GAME! I WANT MY ****ING DOWNLOADABLE CONTENT!

I'll just lie about my age, but it really pisses me off, for all the other people that actually have the problem.

It's all about Divx / Xvid support. I would have paid cash money for this. Best feature of the 360 now.

If you are still so young that you make spelling and grammatical errors like that then you are too young for Halo.

I love the new update.

Everything is so much faster.

Gamer pics, acheivements all that loads up almost instantly where before it took like 4-5 seconds.

Also i like the new speed of the blades, and the snappy guide button.

I can't imagine how it was before with out the speed update

Asasinator

Aside from not liking the changes to the marketplace tab, COD4 has been extremely laggy ( as bad or worse than Gears ever was at points ) and occasionally freezes since the update and my connection is at four bars so... Update = lame.

I found out the best part of the update today: Xvid and DivX playback. No more streaming with transcode!
