Any Website That Lists Patches?

Post by darthmunky »

Whenever I pop in an Xbox 360 game and need to update, I always want to know what that patch was specifically for. Are there any sites that post when patches are released and what the patch fixed?

Sometimes I don't understand this patching at all. Like when you want to play an oXbox game on your 360, and the 360 asks you to download the patch first. Only to get the 'this game is not compatible with your 360' message once the download is complete...

WTF is that all about?... What the Hell did I just download then?... lol

Yes, I mean game patches. Not system updates.

I think you are alone there, I have never even heard of this happening before.

That would be weird, since I've had this happen both on my 360 (when I still had one) and on one of my friends' 360 more than once... :?

You do know that oXbox stands for original Xbox right?...

The English language is usually more easily understood if you actually communicate in English.

In my defense, I learned the term oXbox on this site... :lol:

I had also never seen the term "oxbox" before this site, but I found it fairly self-explanitory.

And that has happened to me too, with Toejam & Earl 3. I was quite excited for a moment, thinking "what are the chances microsoft took the time to do whatever was needed to make this game work?"

Apparently zero
