If you turn on your Xbox 360 today, be warned that you'll need to sit patiently through a dashboard update for five minutes. You have now been warned.
The biggest feature of the update is PayPal, which has been added as a new billing option. Now it's never been easy to buy the hot new indie game that everybody's talking about, Spanker's Army.
If you're not a PayPal fan, then the most significant change for you is the fact that the fonts will look a little big smoother. Exciting.

Hackers, shmackers.
Update started on 19th and will continue till 30th.
LOL
clear your cache, it didn't break mine and i've had the update since the begining of may
Now that's something worth waiting five minutes for. Take that PS3 firmware.
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
LOVE IT!!!!
If PSN was smart they would jump on that!
Avatar Legends is out though so that's nice.
At least I get crisper font on my dashboard to look forward to and access to a new disc format that won't even be implemented into newer games for a while.
Give us the software update for Kinect already!
"I might download this eventually, when the 360 gives me a reason to turn it on again...."
<3
they both blow.
I was just pokin' fun at my buddy Sexualchocolate, since he "doesn't have a reason to turn on his 360" because he's preoccupied with Sony's stellar exclusives.
TL;DR - It was a joke.
@JohnGrisham
HEY OH!
If 360s blew more they wouldn't overheat so much.
Mmmmmhhhmmmmm!
Best game from the Indie games ever! I'm being serious too, unlike Jim's jab at Spanker's Army.
