Been playing around with it. The new VGA settings definitely make a difference. Intermediate reference settings make the colours noticably richer but overall darker. Expanded reference level is too dark though.

The IM feature is nice, but who' s really going to use it much. In my experience, my 360 chums are usually a different lot to the people in my MSN address book, people who I wouldn' t game with. Still nice to instant message someone instead of the usual SMS style messages, even though once you' re in a game, you can usually just talk to them over the headsets.

Only thing left for me is extra monitor resolutions like 1680x1050. By the time they add it though, I' ll probably have a decent HDTV anyway heh.

Oh that and the Forza 2 demo, which I' ve heard might be coming out late today (US time)! *Stressing the might part!*
