Sweet update. I'm glad about the age promotion thing, I got my Xbox a few weeks before I was 18 so no more annoying family settings, hello to messenger. Nice!

Looks great! Really liking the Age Promotion thing and of course the fact you can download Original XBOX games :D

FOF and the "Console Timer" also seem really cool!

You dont need to worry about changing your DOB etc, you just go onto the settings, and confirm you want to use MSN. It said it in the video? :)

he has his gamercard in his signature on another forum i'm a user on and he has played games like 2 weeks before they come out :(

Heya,

Well to be honest it doesn't seem so superb yet. The Xbox Originals seem really good. Fable, Halo, Fahrenheit, Crash Bandicoot (All seem good)

The update to the friends list is nice, The "Inside Xbox" comes tomorrow (Every thursday)

MSN works on child accounts however I still cant find a way to promote my account, I presume it does it automatically when you become 18 (then when you are 18, you have to like do it)

The whole thing seems okay, not great yet. The whole FOF thing is also cool.

Yeah, i was a little let down.
Msn lags too much =/ , and u definitely need the keypad if your using msn.
Inside xbox will be good, and so are the Xbox Originals :)

I love it that when you turn the xbox off, it fades out to black. Looks so much better than it did. I've also noticed that the guide and the dashboard are so much more responsive, thank god.

Alan_Carr
04-12-2007, 06:05 PM
Yeah, its still better
Im not gna complain

Went to promote my account to an adult one, you need a credit card to do this, and it wont accept my details. Typical.

That's stupid, you can still use MSN anyway so I don't see any difference

After looking on the forum, there seems to be a few people experiening the same problem. So maybe it's fixable? I also see the game demo's are still appearing on our gamercards?

Alan_Carr

You can get rid of them..
Go to Games Library on the Dashboard, then you can delete crappy demos you dont want appearing :)

I'm looking on games library and can't see the demos. I deleted them ages ago and can still see them on my gamercard.
