where did you hear about that ?

There was suppose to be new weapons a couple of months ago but that never happened !

Back on topic - that keyboard should be really handy when sending messages to friends , and the messenger should be pretty sweet too , although i cant see myself using it that much !

A patch to fix glitches and add a new gametype HAS been announced

Click Me for Video

With a new 4 map mappack on the horizon as well.. as far as new weapons. I think that was either a rumor, or leaked way to early, cause i dont think its part of this coming update.

So far it seems people can still play backups after the dashboard update! Even without the latest firmware revision!

I would stay off live with firmware lower than 5.3 (for TS). It's confirmed that other firmware works but there are rumours going round they're just harvesting accounts and then banning when Halo 3 come around.

If you're set on not upgrading then wait until after the Halo3 beta before you fumble about online.

If you want to upgrade and you're in Yorkshire then give me a nod ;-)
