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)

I noticed a good amount of mine got in today.

Im the only one of my friends that have the beta...They ask me how I got it and I said I used cheat codes...

i have the beta and the one thing that is really annoying is that you can get the occasional random update. i had it 2 days ago whilst i was in the middle of a game of clubs on fifA

Expressionn yeah they have filters but u can change that setting so u can look anything u want up! but u can't watch flash movies which sucks... cause everything uses flash player nowa days!


Hopefully they don't leave it that way.


yeah seriously that would be so lame if they did.....
but anyway what do u mean the guid is being slow? what guide?

Scream all of this seems rather pointless. i wish the dashboard and guide would just load faster, why can't they do something about that?


I hate how long it takes for the Guide to open.


I have noticed this myself. Its rather irritating.
