The Xbox 360 will be getting a Spring Update, which will add new and reorganized features to the Xbox 360 Dashboard.
Gamespot accidently placed the video online and removed it soon after, however, the video was ripped on YouTube. Watch the video below, which goes over and shows the features coming to the Xbox 360 Dashboard.


Here’s a list of them, just in case you can’t keep up with the speedy talkin’ on the video (or if the video is pulled):


- Coming May 7th

- Contact list will now integrate Windows Live Messenger, and show joinable session status

- Messenger contacts can see what you’re playing, and your gamertag (don’t have your boss on your contact list!)

- Marketplace has it’s own blade and will have it’s own custom skin

- Inline achievement updates

- New Low-power download mode and auto-shutdown

- Text chat (Messenger) up to six friends playing games and watching movies

- Various changes to the interface


No official update has been announced by Microsoft yet.
