Xbox 360 Dashboard Update This Week

Xbox 360

Although many fans thought the dashboard update was coming May 7th, the press release actually indicated that it was coming the week of May 7th, meaning it could be here any time between the 7th and the 12th (given there is never new content uploaded on the weekends as the Xbox staff are all out at their beach houses).

The plan was to get it out to gamers as soon as possible though, but they are experiencing a minor hiccup. This from Major Nelson's latest blog entry:

May '07 Update News

I just heard from the Dashboard team that we'll have to wait at least another day for the Dashboard update to be released. The update is not being released in the next 24-hours. That is all I know at this time, but I’ll get more information tomorrow afternoon (PT) and I will update this post as needed. Thanks for your patience and understanding.

Hopefully the update will still come this week, along with an expected and delayed Forza Motorsport 2 demo, but only time will tell what Microsoft has up their sleeves, as MS themselves aren't posting any news regarding these issues.
