Forums - Microsoft - New Xbox Experience Update Becomes Mandatory

NXE to be mandatory update for new games

Microsoft is to include the NXE update in all new game discs.

The first titles to get this mandatory update will be HAWX and MLB: 2K9.

You won’t be able to play them unless you accept the dashboard update that pops up when you insert the disc.

There’s no escape. Welcome to Avatars, unconnected people.

Embrace, extend, extinguish.



Um... so they're going to take up another 200mb of an already space-constrained disc? Ir did they take away from some of the other stuff theyhad on there to compensate?



Could I trouble you for some maple syrup to go with the plate of roffles you just served up?

lol, its MS you cant tell me youre that suprised?

OT: i like the new experience, i find it more user friendly and the avatars are better than i thought they would be



It's not like they're the first this generation to do this--plenty of Wii games automatically install system updates.

No, but Microsoft takes up about 2.2 gigs with anti-piracy software, as evidenced by the fact that even multiple-disc games don't take up more than 6.8 gigs on a single DVD.

People were going to have to accept it eventually. If games are going to have built in NXE Party support, etc everyone will have to have it
