Xbox 360 dashboard update dated for August, detailed
The new Xbox 360 dashboard which was unveiled to select members of the press will be seeing an official launch on August 11th, as stated by Microsoft today.
Included with the update comes Xbox Live Games on Demand, the game distribution service announced during this year’s E3. On Demand allows players to download full retail games at the convenience of their own couches. Titles such as Mass Effect, BioShock, Assassin’s Creed, and Lego Star Wars will all be featured in launch. More titles will be added on a weekly basis.
Co-operative Netflix watching will also be available, allowing players to stream movies simultaneously among friends on Xbox Live.
Facebook, Twitter, and Last.fm integration will have to wait until the fall update.
If you can’t wait until August, you can sign up for Major Nelson’s Xbox LIVE Update Preview Program by completing a survey for a chance to take a sneak peek at the update.
