I pinned some shit last night, and it worked then. Haven't fired up the system tonight yet to check it out though. I might report back later.

Works okay here, but seems crazy that I have to select the pins icon on the home page to see the pins. I'd think they would be added to the actual home page.

You can pin as many things as you want though. They should have just called it favorites.

Hitting the guide button and going to "Recent" is ludicrously faster and my "pins/favo(u)rites/boo(u)kmarks" are usually in my last 6 launched things anyway, I just use that. Though I have pinned a few things in case they drop off the "Recent" list.

Free Halo avatar outfits. Just make sure you select the UK from the drop down box. You might have to play a couple times if you are trying to get male / female because you won't know until you try to enter the code

Here is a female code if anyone wants it

I like this new update!

One cool thing I noticed is in the Movie section is it will now tell you what Movie apps feature the film/TV show. It helps if the same film/TV show is cheaper or even FREE on another app.

I got an email for the code as well. I used it and then found out it was for my sons account. He was disappointed. I need to find another code somewhere.

You can now pick your gender before you claim the code.

I still haven't gotten an email from them and I watched at least parts of 3 debates (and even voted on stuff a little). I wonder if I should call about this or whether they're rolling out the codes slowly.

Mine ended up being in my hotmail address folder, even though I updated all my MS Live accounts to the new outlook email standard. If you did something like that, check your hotmail.

Not there either. Did everyone else get who was expecting to get a code already get one? Were they all sent out yesterday? Do you show it in your Xbox Rewards account under Bonuses? Because I don't have it there either. Maybe I should call. Thanks in advance for the help.

The subject of the email is "Claim your Halo 4 Warrior Armor from Xbox LIVE Rewards!‏" and it was sent by [email protected]

I can't check the rewards site right now.

Asked if the Xbox flash drive storage limit had officially increased from 16GB to 32GB during the most recent Xbox Live update, a Microsoft spokesperson told us, "Yes. The more our customers use their profile and download digital content, the larger the file size necessary to store that content and move it between consoles gets. Therefore we increased the size of the memory to enable our customers to take more of their Xbox profile with them on the go."

I'd rather they justify having a limit at all or why it has to be flash. Let me attach a portable 3TB drive to it and be on my way.

I have a friend still rocking a 20GB launch system who was happy to hear this news. He struggled to find room to install Halo 4.
