As always, Gamerscoreblog unravels more of the New Xbox Experience mystery, with this week's update focusing on a feature that's been on my personal wish list for a long time: being able to browse the Xbox LIVE Marketplace from a computer.
When the Xbox 360 update hits on November 19, Xbox.com will have a fully-functioning version of the Marketplace that allows you to view, download, and even purchase content by putting the items in your queue.
From there, the second you fire up your console, all of the items in your queue will begin downloading. However, the real draw here is that you can use a text search to find digital content, which is something the Xbox 360 currently won't let you do.

Jordan Devore is Destructoid's PC gaming manager and founding ginger editor. He is said to be easy to love but difficult to know. When Samit inquired about his curious bio photo Jordan simply replied:
"bitches love sandcastles" ... yet, there is no sandcastle in that photo. We may never truly understand his ways.

Destructoid is an open discussion community. You don't need to "audition" to post a comment - just speak your mind. We respect differing opinions on the site, so have at it. Be smart, funny, insightful, clueless, or cute -- but back it up with substance. Keep your cool, keep it fun. We only ask that you act respectfully and above all: don't be a troll and ruin it for everyone else. Don't bring down gamers or we'll, you know, gently shoot you in the face and stuff you into a flaming mailbox. Each comment is your opportuntity to make this community awesomer. Is that even a word?
Avoiding the banhammer only requires common sense: spamming, trolling, racism, NSFW stuff, and other forms of sucking will not be tolerated. If anyone is griefing please report abuse. Be good. Don't suck!
What's cool is if you leave your 360 on while you go to work, you can set up the queue, and it will be ready for you right when you get home.
WOO!
By the way, Bungie did it first. Their files share system allowed you to queue downloads from their website.
I mean, it only takes am internet connection an a usb controller.
