Xbox Live fall update
Finally the fall dashboard update for the 360 has been given a date and it’s in winter! It will be on the 4th of December. Unfortunately the much desired high definition video rental service for Europe will not be included in this one. The service will allow you to download movies or shows on your HDD and there is a timeframe of 14 days to watch it. However, once you begin watching it you have 24 hours until it deletes itself from your HDD. Although i am not too sure whether here in Cyprus we would have been able to use it anyway due to movie rights issues i am disappointed that it’s not coming this holiday season.
One great addition in the update is the fact that there will be a Virtual Console kind of shop which will allow you to purchase original xbox games. Early titles include Halo, Fable , Psychonauts and Fahrenheit and the games will cost 1200 MS points which is almost 14Euros.
