New Xbox Live Update Next Week.
Joystiq has posted a new article detailing all the upgrades.
It basically takes everything people have wanted since launch, and does them.
“Also, among the other features it will add includes better USB keyboard support (including the ability to use the keyboard’s arrow keys to navigate through the Xbox 360 Dashboard), and that you’ll be able to have a separate “gamer picture†that only those on your friends list will see. It’ll also be possible for you to use the Xbox camera to create your gamer picture, though parental controls can squelch the viewing of user-created content for younger gamers.”

Now all MS needs to do is add the ablity to chat with more than 1 person and the 360 will be perfect…

Awesome stuff. That background-downloading stuff would’ve helped during E3.
Well, it’ll be there for X06….

Microsoft has already said they won’t be doing multi-person Dashboard chat. It was in an interview with Major Nelson, I can’t remember if it was the connectivity guy, or the base software (Dashboard) guy, but he said that people won’t have that option because it’s a bandiwidth issue. They said they would be looking for the games to allow people to do that (like sitting in an Halo 2 lobby), and not the dash itself.
