You can't really blame Felix and Michael for their timing guys. It's not like M$ advertised what was going to be in the new update, at least not to this level. Nobody could have known until it's release. When drawn into perspective this was a very quick response. It's going to save alot of people missing out on an excellent opportunity still. Even if you did already update, it gives you good leeway to save up and get another 360, even a brand new one if you wanted. I'm going to hold off on the update myself, but only for a bit because my cables shut off.

POWER TO THE PEOPLE!!

you can blame them ive got one good reason

they knew they had a hack nearly ready before the update was out why not warn us and tell us to wait till they looked at the update and what it does ?

LOL what?
Its too late for 90% of the users because _you_ were in the preview?

Anyone remotely caring about security will not apply updates until they are checked for Live changes. Anyone caring about homebrew should not update at all since hacks are usually more likely to be in old, unpatched software revisions (see PSP).

I'd say 90% will be fine and 10% are retards who update on the first day - you should have known better.

I agree. Any potential exploits should be announced just before an update is released.

We don't even know how close they really are to releasing anything cool yet. Don't get your panties in a .wad! We're still waiting for bootmii and it's been over a year or two since they've started that project.

Holy Poo! Glad I didn't update! Keep us posted!

*shrug* It's not the first time they've had to deal with a bunch of dead 360s... MS doesn't know how to deal with hardware properly, unless it's a mouse or a keyboard.

without the need of a modchip, finally opening up the Xbox 360 to a level of hacking as the original Xbox.

Doubtful, but crosses fingers anyway.

I don't really remember these dudes from xbox 1, but well, lets wait and see if they keep their words and release something big.

Well, the need of an external hardware to allow you to choose what way you wanna boot is kinda bad, but its about the same as it was on the xbox1, so, again, unless the homebrow access is something that will fully allow us to run from emulators to XMC on our 360,s, and lets wonder, run games from the HDD and or from external HDDs / USB Discs... Unless it is that complete, it might be a bit frustating to wait for something not so solid.

Let me get this right...you don't need to stick in the King Kong disc after free60 releases their new hack? It is permanently in the NAND? or harddrive?
