Xbox 360 cloud storage bumped up to 2GB

Good news for backward compatibility

Microsoft pushed out an update on Xbox 360 today that extends the console’s cloud storage — you’ll now have 2GB of space for your precious save files. That’s not all:

• Accept Terms of Use – You can now connect your Xbox 360 to a network that requires a Terms of Use acceptance (common in hotels, hospitals, and other public venues). After first connecting you will be prompted to test your Xbox Live connection and will then be directed to use Internet Explorer to login to the network. You must have the latest update of Internet Explorer first.
• Redeem Codes from messages – When you receive an Xbox Live Marketplace code in a message you will now be able to redeem that code by simply pressing “Redeem Code.”
• Activity Feed – Like, comment, share your friend’s activities, post new messages, watch game clips, view screenshots, and see what your friends are playing from your Xbox 360. You can access your Activity Feed by navigating to Social on your console.
• See What Your Friends Are Doing – You can now see what your friends are playing on Xbox One and Windows 10 from your Xbox 360.
• Microsoft Movies & TV and Groove Music – Access your movie and TV collection from Microsoft Movies & TV and your Music in Groove Music.
• See your money  – Your Microsoft account balance will now be shown when you are looking at the details of a game or when browsing the marketplace.

It’s good to have the storage bump in place before Xbox 360 backward compatibility comes to Xbox One in full force. I need to set aside some time to move the rest of my saves over.
