The next Xbox 360 Dashboard update promises to be a big one, with a totally revised menu system, Netflix support, and Wii-like avatars, but so far Microsoft’s kept mum on when it’s coming — but we’d circle November on your calendars for now, since that’s what MS UK apparently told the crew at RPG-TV. It’s still not official official, but at least now you have something to look forward to in November besides awkwardly hanging out with people from high school over Thanksgiving.

Sure, we’ve seen the Xbox 360’s forthcoming Dashboard update demoed in a polished presentation and detailed in high res press pics, but if you’re like us, you don’t really get exciting about something until it’s leaked out into the wild and shown off blurry cam-style. The particularly adventurous can apparently even take their chances and install this new “Xbox Experience” update themselves, but the exact details about where to get it and how to install it are understandably a bit hard to come by. If you do go that route, however, you’ll need to make sure you have a modded console with an Infectus 2 Chip in the system and, most likely, a second 360 to fall back on in the event the first bursts into flames. The rest of us will just have to make do with the video after the break.

We’d been getting pretty used to getting an Xbox 360 Dashboard updates every other season or so, but it looks like it’s going to be a barren spring: there’s no update coming this spring, according to Xbox Live manager Marc Whitten. In an interview with Next Generation, Whitten said that Redmond’s focusing resources on “building the proper infrastructure and scale for the service” — which hopefully means those Live outages will soon be a thing of the past. Whitten also said that the Live team is working on a Live DRM update that’ll allow XBLA games to be re-licensed and played offline if you swap consoles, and that underperforming XBLA titles with Metacritic scores under 65 percent will be eligible for delisting. Sure, sure — just make with that wacky motion-sensing controller soon, okay?

It’s getting to be about time for an Xbox 360 Dashboard update, and Official Xbox Magazine is reporting that the Fall update, due December 4th, will come packing a huge new feature: downloadable Xbox games. The list includes some biggies: Fable, Burnout 3, Crash Bandicoot: The Wrath of Cortex, and, or course, the original Halo. Games are reported to cost 1200 points, (around $15), and the games list is expected to grow over time. Of course, Microsoft hasn’t confirmed any of this yet, but December is right around the corner — looks like we’ll find out soon enough.
