No Spring dashboard update coming, says MicrosoftDVDBack23 @ May 25, 2008 06:55 | 8 comments
Whitten adds that the titles must have been "out for more than six months, have a Metacritic score of less than 65%, and have a conversion rate of less than 6% will be eligible for delisting." The software giant will then give three months of warning before the titles are finally removed.
When speaking about the so far missing dashboard update, Whitten says "we have taken a different approach this spring and spent a lot of our time and resources of building the proper infrastructure and scale for the service not just today but also into the future. So while most users will not notice any significant changes to the dashboard this spring, I can tell you that the team will be releasing a new digital rights management (DRM) tool next month that will allow you to better consolidate your licenses for downloaded content to a single Xbox and allow you the freedom to be able to play your content both online and offline." |

F$#K M$ then! a$$hol3s unless they make it so i can play it off line & keep it on my hdd i am cool with that! i dotn see the huge deal! if it isn't hugely popular maybe make a section of older titles & keep it there! unless they r trying to cut bandwidth usage by killing apps that aren't making enough $! |
