So today I woke up early and wanted to see if the Gears of War patch was out, but was greeted with an auto update for the dash when I signed into live. I didn’t update because the last time I did, it killed my system slowly over the following week.

There are a few threads on the xbox.com forums speculating what might have been included in the update, but as of 11 a.m. there is still nothing solid.

I will try to post back when I have more information.

UPDATE:: http://www.majornelson.com/archive/2007/01/09/today-s-dash-update.aspx

Major Nelson posted about the dash update with enough information to satisfy a 2 year old. When will ms start giving us some info when they fix or break something? Oh, and by the way, NEVER use 1up for your xbox 360 news. They really screwed the pooch on the news of the udpate.

Personally, I think the update did something to fix either vga issues, or something video related as well as possibly fixing whatever clusterfuck they started with the nov 30th update (gpu clock? anyone?). I noticed right away after updating that now my background doesn’t cover as much as the screen as it did. I’d love to find out more.

UPDATE (from drunk pandas): They didn’t fix VGA. Mine still sucks donkey balls.
