[quote:85893]Microsoft's finally patching the wicked s'ploits on the Xbox 360, which have been around since November and demoed in December, with a somewhat mandatory patch. They're pushing the update as an update instead of a security fix, and is "pulling a Sony" and including the update in all games that are published after February 20. Sounds just like the PSP to us.

What does this mean? Well, unless you're one of the handful of people who are using the 360 to run Linux or to run burned games, you'll be fine. For the rest, you'll probably need to get a new Xbox 360 to play newer games or else run the risk of not being able to play any of your old pirated games

Just like the PSP, itll be cracked within the day.

EDIT: As expected - this fixes something entirely different than the firmware hack. . .I guess folks were able to get LINUX running on the XBOX360. There probably little MS can do to prevent the firmware hack, but then if it was created by man, it can be broken by man.
