Microsoft says no Spring Xbox 360 Dashboard update coming this year

Filed under:

We’d been getting pretty used to getting an Xbox 360 Dashboard updates every other season or so, but it looks like it’s going to be a barren spring: there’s no update coming this spring, according to Xbox Live manager Marc Whitten. In an interview with Next Generation, Whitten said that Redmond’s focusing resources on “building the proper infrastructure and scale for the service” — which hopefully means those Live outages will soon be a thing of the past. Whitten also said that the Live team is working on a Live DRM update that’ll allow XBLA games to be re-licensed and played offline if you swap consoles, and that underperforming XBLA titles with Metacritic scores under 65 percent will be eligible for delisting. Sure, sure — just make with that wacky motion-sensing controller soon, okay?
