    My 360 is not reacting well to the update!!! It's gone very sluggish all of a sudden and the screen froze 3 times while playing an XBLA game from my harddrive! Had to turn of the console with the front button 3 times. Never had to do this since I got it in Feb.

    Anyone else having any issues?

    Try clearing your cache in case something is in there that shouldn't be. You'll have to Google how to do this, I've never had to.

    Some of the files are probably cached on the HDD and causing the irregulaities if nobody else has reported the problem.

    Improved enforcement of Windows Live ID and Gamertag Regions
    So might have more trouble getting those US only downloads from the marketplace now.

    Noob Question here:
    I haven't connected my 360 to the internet yet, are these updates absolutely necessary?
    Also, how does it work? do I just connect my 360 to a internet connection and do all the updates I missed just download automatically?
    Thanks

    My elite was lagging in the dashboard after the update yesterday.
    COD4 was practcally unplayable in anything other than private match too.

    MS will ruin a good thing with this stupid FOF updates.

    The updates are enhancements for the 360 but contain security updates too. I don't think they are neccessary for the 360 to play games.

    When you connect, you'll be asked do you want to update the available update. It'll probably keep asking you every time you turn it on until you do.

    Might just leave this update if that's the case.

    dpnt think the update has anything to do with COD4 , I reckon the servers are not able to handle the traffic. I updated and have no issues at all

    Maybe , but it has certainly made both my dashboard and COD 4 laggy.
    I seen 15 of my friends freeze up and restart numerous times last night.
    Remeber with all this new information available , like viewing all of your friends , Friendslist , its bound to affect all profiles , mid-game or not.

    The udates are only compulsory if you connect to Live, that is both the individual game patches and the dashboard updates. I think some newer games will also include the dashboard updates that have previously come out so that people who are not online will get them also.

    Have you tried the clear the cache thing that seemed to work for someone else above?
    I think it's hold LB+RB when you're booting the Xbox - but a Google search will give you the exact steps.

    No , but there again it is a month old Elite.
    Andf clearing the cache is only really beneficial if you have downloaded a lot of game updates , dashboard updates etc.
