Microsoft opens up more places on Xbox LIVE Update beta

4.7
Microsoft will expand the closed beta of the 2012 Xbox Live update with a new round of testers in the coming weeks.

The platform holder has re-opened the application page for entry into the beta, but numbers will still be limited so don't hang around.
The beta first opened up in July when MS took in the first round of volunteers to test out a pre-release version of the new dashboard features set for arrival later this year.

The beta includes an early look at:

- Internet Explorer for Xbox

- Recommendations and ratings

- Pinning and favorites

- Enhanced category search and discovery features

- Voice search (in specified markets)

If you have multiple xbox's you can redeem them on those too but only if they belong to you.

HaloUK I managed to get in the beta but still have no update.


After you sign up, you should get a dashboard "update" the next day. It downloads and installs just like a normal dash update.


Ah ok, thanks :)

I got the message for the BETA but I honestly cannot be bothered with it, they haven't added anything even remotely interesting. Definitely skipping this one.
