It sucks that the new fall update is just Facebook/Twitter/Last fm crap. I know some people might like it because they actually use these things, but for those who don't, it seems like it's a pointless update. Anyone else mad that they didn't add something cool like the whole NXE thing or party chat or at least something?

it's meh, not bad but nothing useful. twitter seems pointless enough to me and seems even more so on xbox live. Facebook is ok, but why would I use it on my 360 as opposed to my computer? Last.fm is pretty neat, seems a lot like Pandora, but I think this is also accessible via computer, and you can't even use it while playing a game. So yeah, it wasn't a great update, but oh well, better luck next time

I was trying to figure out LAst fm and I couldnt see any way to play the music while playing a game. Is it true? Can you only listen to it while looking at the pictures?

I also agree it all seems pointless. I bought my Xbox toPLAY GAMES. If you could use Last.FM while playing a game that would be different.

well what do you expect MS to reinvent xbox live every year. NXE was the first time they ever did anything like that and i really cant see the harm in them adding extra stuff. You may not use it but alot of people will. Dont complain about free stuff!

They should have just given us a web browser instead of giving us stripped down versions of websites. The only good thing is Halo Waypoint and thats only something Halo fans are going to dig.

NO NO NO NO NO NO NO! Do you not see the problem with that? Imagine how many people with bad connections would be slowing down games? This will NEVER happen!

To those saying don't complain about free stuff: technically this isn't really free. It comes as part of our Gold Membership, which we're paying $5 a month for. Yea I guess that can be seen as the fee to play online, but still.

the last.fm is good, but it exits into like its own page. I would have been much better if you could activate whenever, like while playing a game.

One would imagine part of that fee goes to paying the people who make the updates. You could argue we would prefer Microsoft using our money to give us something gamers actually want instead of apps of web sites we could visit using our computers.

How does that make it free? I pay $5 a month, and the little updates they actually do to the Xbox wouldn't even exist if we didn't pay for the service. You think that they would have made the NXE experience or given us the facebook/twitter if we didn't pay for Xbox Live? No, it would be like PSN then. So yea, it isn't a free update, it's an update that we can get because we pay for Gold.

yeah I kind of agree with TC. Facebook works fine with a computer but it's clunky on 360. Why on earth would I want to use it there when I just use it on my computer? anyway, its' free so really can't complain.
