That's how many years you've had Gold... useful? :/

I apparently got in as I got the update this morning, no time to play though.

I got in too

Pickers · 29-07-2009, 09:22

so whats new? Worth signing up for?

Nothing decent, and the guide is still pig slow when in game.

The rating is how many years you've been on Xbox Live. Had I not been screwed by Xbox Support I'd have the full rating as my NokkonWud was registered when Live was in Beta way back on the original Xbox.

.

I bought the cotton bud prop last night \o/.

Owned, both for being ripped off on a cotton bud no one will ever see and for a rating no one will ever see

Not really the most exciting of events. Had a quick look about but as Kreeeee's pointed out, it's still slow which is irritating! Not fussed about the Avatar Marketplace (I really can't fathom why anyone would spend real money on virtual clothes that no one's really going to pay attention to anyway!!) and the Gold Membership thingy is sort of nice but ultimately extremely gimmicky

Presumably it's to make Gold Members feel vaguely important.

Still, it's not a huge update so fair enough that the better stuff will come later on in the year/next year/whenever it's meant to be.

I do wish they'd sort out the speed issues though, or make a way to streamline things for those who want to see the minimum when doing something on the dash.

I have been with live since the beta but cant get into this preview, maybe because I am no longer gold.

Did you register on the link posted on Major Nelsons blog? You had to register your console number and manufacture ID on it. It's out in 2 weeks time for everyone.
