Makes sense for people to report problems, not successes

1. My xbox 360 doesn't load the last arcade game i played first which i know is a stupid thing to biatch about but it is part of the release, and still zuma which is becoming the number one game played on my system slowly still loads last for me. Which is frustrating because i have 10 games.

2. More 360 lock ups i have had 2 since the update and none with the system before other than with burnout revenge. I have played burnout once since the update and it was after the 2 crashes.

3. Accepting game invites for some games, they just haven't loaded right, I had someone send me an invite three times and I could never get in to a cod2 room. ]]>Jun 12th 2006 1:12AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/06/11/xbox-360-spring-update-bugs-got-any/http://www.engadget.com/2006/06/11/xbox-360-spring-update-bugs-got-any/Jun 12th 2006 1:18AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/06/11/xbox-360-spring-update-bugs-got-any/http://www.engadget.com/2006/06/11/xbox-360-spring-update-bugs-got-any/Jun 12th 2006 1:25AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/06/11/xbox-360-spring-update-bugs-got-any/http://www.engadget.com/2006/06/11/xbox-360-spring-update-bugs-got-any/Jun 12th 2006 1:56AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/06/11/xbox-360-spring-update-bugs-got-any/http://www.engadget.com/2006/06/11/xbox-360-spring-update-bugs-got-any/

my 360 is making a differnet noise now when slowing discs down, first it sounds like its stopping them complelty and it sort of grinds, then does a weird vibrating noise until i eject it. the discs come out untouched though. dunno if its anything to do with the update or just pure coincidence. but here in the UK we get 12months free warranty so if its gonna die it better do it within the next 6 months]]>Jun 12th 2006 2:04AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/06/11/xbox-360-spring-update-bugs-got-any/http://www.engadget.com/2006/06/11/xbox-360-spring-update-bugs-got-any/Jun 12th 2006 2:09AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/06/11/xbox-360-spring-update-bugs-got-any/http://www.engadget.com/2006/06/11/xbox-360-spring-update-bugs-got-any/Jun 12th 2006 2:15AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/06/11/xbox-360-spring-update-bugs-got-any/http://www.engadget.com/2006/06/11/xbox-360-spring-update-bugs-got-any/Jun 12th 2006 2:53AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/06/11/xbox-360-spring-update-bugs-got-any/http://www.engadget.com/2006/06/11/xbox-360-spring-update-bugs-got-any/
It's mostly happened with MLB 2k6, which is ironic, given that title's problems on it's own, without disc read problems.]]>Jun 12th 2006 2:55AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/06/11/xbox-360-spring-update-bugs-got-any/http://www.engadget.com/2006/06/11/xbox-360-spring-update-bugs-got-any/
Not exactly a spring update bug, but since then I do get a nice little message telling me its reading the disc. :(]]>Jun 12th 2006 2:57AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/06/11/xbox-360-spring-update-bugs-got-any/http://www.engadget.com/2006/06/11/xbox-360-spring-update-bugs-got-any/
Also my controller seems to disconnect on occasion when im playing hitman blood money. it may have to do with my mobile phone being too close?

I probably will end up calling tech support about it tomorrow or something. Does anyone actually have a list of what changed?]]>Jun 12th 2006 3:48AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/06/11/xbox-360-spring-update-bugs-got-any/http://www.engadget.com/2006/06/11/xbox-360-spring-update-bugs-got-any/
I just got my Xbox a few days before the update, so I didn't get too use to the old features. The new ones are a lot better than the old ones, though, I think.

The Background downloads are worth it, alone, that's a REAL convenience for downloading MASSIVE demos. That feature is one of the best things about the 360, that I can play pretty functional demos of dozens of games for free. ]]>Jun 12th 2006 4:09AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/06/11/xbox-360-spring-update-bugs-got-any/http://www.engadget.com/2006/06/11/xbox-360-spring-update-bugs-got-any/Jun 12th 2006 4:28AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/06/11/xbox-360-spring-update-bugs-got-any/http://www.engadget.com/2006/06/11/xbox-360-spring-update-bugs-got-any/
And music now plays in the dashboard and most games, however if you start up PDZ, the Microsoft and Rare video's will cut out the sound, which will resume playback after their finished.

I've had a few more random lock ups than I'm used too :(]]>Jun 12th 2006 4:57AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/06/11/xbox-360-spring-update-bugs-got-any/http://www.engadget.com/2006/06/11/xbox-360-spring-update-bugs-got-any/I have big problems with Oblivion. It is really really slow and I wait more then I play. I am considering returning that game.

I also found a bug when I download demos, the box tells me that I need to set my settings to PAL60 in order to play, but since I all ready is in HDTV mode this is not a option.

Most other games work really well!

I have called 360 support and they are looking into the problem, but I think I will call them again soon...]]>Jun 12th 2006 6:29AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/06/11/xbox-360-spring-update-bugs-got-any/http://www.engadget.com/2006/06/11/xbox-360-spring-update-bugs-got-any/Jun 12th 2006 7:03AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/06/11/xbox-360-spring-update-bugs-got-any/http://www.engadget.com/2006/06/11/xbox-360-spring-update-bugs-got-any/
My 360 lags very notably and skips when playing back hi-def videos, whereas that of course worked like a charm before the update.

It happens whenever there is a large color/motion change in a video, for example in the Halo 3 teaser, while a scene is running, everything is smooth as silk, then a banshee would suddenly fly passed the camera and the video would stutter and lag for a few seconds until the box has "accustomed" itself to the new scene. When the screen goes black towards the end, the video would COMPLETELY FREEZE for 5 seconds while the audio keeps on running, then suddenly the video would catch up to the sound.

It's annoying as hell and happens during ALL my 720p videos. The Mission Impossible 3 trailer with it's many fast cuts has become nearly "impossible" to enjoy at all.

I figured this might be background downloading or some live activity, but it happens even when offline.

Also, it was promised that the gamer-tags' or arcade games' list was supposed to load faster when accessed, it still takes a considerable ammount of time for me.

And even worse when signing into a profile that has a theme loaded...

With all due respect to the nice changes brought by the update, big thumbs down in view of these new or still existing "bottlenecks"... =(

Anybody else notice any glitches in HD Video playback? I would REALLY appreciate if you could just maybe, look at some of your's and post here if it's A-OK or not...

Thanks in advance,
