It’s About Time: Xbox 360 Spring Update Details Leaked

Submitted by on May 14, 2008 – 8:13 am3 Comments

eliminate drmSomeone supposedly leaked to Kotaku.com details of the Xbox 360 Spring Update. There’s about 80 items in the list.

Naturally, people are getting over-stimulated about “Calibration options for motion sensor devices” and “Support for titles to store installation data on Storage Device for faster loading.” And that’s fine, I suppose. Those are both features that have proven to be interesting on the other platforms.

However, there is really only one item on this list I care about.

12. Option to automatically associate new DRM to items downloaded for free.

Now, I see this being read a couple different ways. This could mean that you could associate new DRM to free, no-cost marketplace items like demos and free gamerpics. I’m of the opinion (which is borne of irrational optimism) that this means I can re-associate my marketplace downloads without re-purchasing them.

If I’m right, this is exactly what many Xbox 360 users have been clamoring for. Gee, it’s only taken 2.5 years to get it, but I’ll be thankful for it, nevertheless. Besides, when the new Blu-ray 360 is released, they’re going to need something like this to help convince people that re-buying a new 360 is as painless as it should’ve been all along.

    I like the one that will allow for streaming or downloading RSS podcast feeds, but the one about installs on the HD is spooking me a bit, because if I cannot upgrade the hard drve myself, there is no way I want to use this, as I am already scrounging for space on my 20GB drive.

    There’s a lot of great ones here if they’re true. The Personal Profile extension and the “Option to hold LT and RT for rewinding/fast-forwarding video content.” is nice as I watch a lot of flicks on my 360 via Connect360.
