Heh quite, that's the silly price change!

The Arcade change sounds like a good idea to me providing they market it well so people actually know what it is.

It makes sense to give the core some use - any use. I mean, what can you do with a core now straight out of the box? Play DVD's :/

The new features in the next dash are supposedly leaked:

http://thexboxdomain.net/2007/08/20/...update-leaked/

Arcade blade was always coming, not sure how the flash game stuff will work mind :S Assuming it's true anyway.

[edit]Oh, and xvid support added too, which would be a big boost.

Well, the list has been given some credibility with some leaks of clan guide information:

http://www.xbox360rally.com/fall-das...ked/#more-1339 (If it's that seamless we could start a BD group/clan)

And xvid support has been talked about before so I wouldn't be surprised. If it all tied in with Media Player I'd even be tempted to drop tversity.

I would love it if there was support for it. Although I'm not sure if it plays mkv files which the majority of HDTV movies appear to be in. I need to try that. Actually, I think my 360 is louder than my HTPC so now I think about it I wouldn't dump it.

It doesn't play mkv's unfortunately. The last dash added some limited MPEG-4 support but it didn't seem very comprehensive. Your only choice for streaming HD to the 360 at the moment is WMV.
