Major Nelson has informed us that a 360 system update is being
released today. He also -- somewhat depressingly -- informs us that today's update is
not the Fall Update. Actually, that seems rather fitting as, unless we are mistaken, it is not yet fall. So, what in the world does this magical update do? Quite simple really, it adds support for the spiffy new controller that comes with
Scene-It. The
controller with the giant, candy colored button, remember? Yeah, that one. Anywho, the update is being rolled out now so that the Microsoft ninjas have a chance to test out the device on retail Xboxen. You know, to see if they explode or something. So, don't panic -- and don't get excited either -- when you're prompted to download the update the next time you log into live.

I forgot about that game entirely.
If MS wants that to be a significant component in there "casual" line up they're really going to have to start pushing it soon.

hmm
i suspect a radiohead reference.

@Tony - its realease date is "Holiday 07" so you can probably expect to see it soon.
i'll probably pick up Scene It - i like these "board games". They should bring out Trivial Pursit though. that would be a definite buy.

I think the arcade games are listed a lot faster when you go to My Arcade Games, am I stoned?

@ Joe...
I get it the Brian Regan reference...just didn't see what it had to do with this topic.
Anyhow, I'm looking forward to this game as well.

Or is it really an update for something else that goes live for Halo like.....clan support?
Hey Apples @ Sep 20th 2007 3:30PM
Not to be a conspiracy theorist, but it's amazing timing that they do this a week before the halo launch.
Anyone want to speculate about what underhanded and/or undocumented "features" are chalk up in this patch?
Stephen @ Sep 20th 2007 5:27PM
Scene It! that's another game I forgot I need to buy...I'm gonna be so broke.
I wonder if it'll have achievements? How can you do that?
Andrew @ Sep 20th 2007 9:31PM
I have no problem with MS releasing an underhanded update that bans pirates.
Smee @ Sep 21st 2007 2:24AM
Never mind Scene it, when the hell is the Falcon going to land!!!!!!!!!

FALL UPDATE - Autumn its autumn mofo's its are language and we call it autumn, why not call winter snow or summer hot, sometimes i wish we never colonized your country. Thickos :)

For someone insulting Americn English may I suggest you learn British English first.
"are language"? Our language perhaps?
Colonized? That's the American spelling. The British spelling is colonised. If you're going to insult the American language then I suggest you try not to use it.
