Sometimes I don't bother deleting and just let them age out. Admittedly I don't receive many voice messages on XBL.

The system only retains them for 30 days anyway.

Another system update has hit but for some reason the download failed and right now I'm seeing:

Neat. Hopefully it's fixed soon.

i want the new dashboard NOW!
espn3 on 360 :drool:

I had one of some hillbilly sounding guy complaining about Far Cry 2 and wish I could have saved it. It was comic gold.

I never got my update for the Fall Dashboard Preview program even though I got accepted when I took the survey!

re: The official Xbox 360 thread - the console of choice on nuclear submarines
 

Watching the game and I cannot complain at all about the quality or performance. For free, I can handle the quick switches from sharp hd to low-bandwidth softness. Hasn't buffered at all.

Very happy!

Twitter (@CowboyGameday) is faster than this feed so I need to ignore that!

I noticed the delay when I was on vacation a few weeks ago watching the US in the World Championships. Definitely a few to several seconds behind.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't ESPN3.com actually show commercials during the media timeouts? The static, silent placards are really annoying.

Hitting the Y button (or up/down) brings up a scoreboard and you can switch to other live games (only one other right now) or toggle to the user predictions.

X jumps to live.

Other than that, typical xbox playback controls.

If ESPN on the 360 is going to make my team play this shitty, I'll never use it again.

re: The official Xbox 360 thread - the console of choice on nuclear submarines
 

Fuckin' nerds. I'm talking sports and sports-related things here!

re: The official Xbox 360 thread - the console of choice on nuclear submarines
 

What's a sport? -wink-

and on a related note we should've gotten sci-fi channel instead on that ESPN shit.

re: The official Xbox 360 thread - the console of choice on nuclear submarines
 

Hahah! I could have used that for Caprica next week ;)

re: The official Xbox 360 thread - the console of choice on nuclear submarines
 

Strike this. I'm always watching on this device!

re: The official Xbox 360 thread - the console of choice on nuclear submarines
 

Last post about this, I promise. It has been interesting watching the prediction bar shift all game.

Started out about 70% OkSt, shifted as A&M gained a big lead to about 70% A&M, settled on 50/50 for a bit before slowing tipping towards A&M again (not really sure why).

It's a nice feature.

had another Netflix update tonight on the new dashboard and now when you scroll through you queue you get so far and it scrolls automatically back to the beginning

re: The official Xbox 360 thread - the console of choice on nuclear submarines
 

Looking forward to the Netflix update. Can't even comprehend why they're putting sports into my videogame console. Does not compute.

re: The official Xbox 360 thread - the console of choice on nuclear submarines
 

Can a mod move the sports related posts to the right forum?

There's a Sports forum, right?

re: The official Xbox 360 thread - the console of choice on nuclear submarines
 

Sorry the World Cup is over.

Raul is talking about sports, I'm not sure what you're talking about.

Call of Duty and Football, it's the "Bro Combo."

Once they figure out how to get light beer to come out of an Xbox, MS will have a damn monopoly on their hands.

Oh, cynicism on the internet, how short your vacation was.

re: The official Xbox 360 thread - the console of choice on nuclear submarines
 

Sorry to interrupt all the fascinating sports talk, but did anyone else notice that Microsoft is running a deal from the 360 dashboard: Buy a year of Live for $45 and get 800 Microsoft points free, or buy two years for $84 and get 1600 points free. The kicker is that you get the points by the time the offer ends, but you don't get charged for the renewal of Live until your current membership expires, which for me is...2012. :lol:

Also, I read somewhere that there was a deal going on for DLC starting today, where if you bought a certain amount worth of DLC you get 800 free points or something like that? Is that true, because I'm not seeing anything about it on the dashboard.

This is what I was referring to: http://dualshockers.com/2010/10/01/x...ng-spree-deal/
