![Bungie's "Destiny" uncovered [Update]](http://gematsu.com/wp-content/uploads/pth/sizes/238x130/thumb_201205Bungie-Destiny-Leak.jpg)
Dashboard Update Preview Applications Now Available
Just like last year’s “New Xbox Experience” update, Microsoft is once again previewing this year’s new update to those who complete an application survey now available on the Microsoft Connect website.
Major Nelson writes that Microsoft is going to be selecting “a good cross-section” of Xbox LIVE members so that they could get the “best feedback” possible. They’re looking for thousands this time and are even selecting Xbox LIVE Silver members.
Just so you know, this update doesn’t have Twitter, Facebook and Last.fm. This one features Netflix updates and the Avatar Marketplace.
You’ll be notified within a week if you’re accepted.

Green with envy.
The fact that this is only ONE of the MANY major updates to the 360 that will be coming over the next 9 or so months makes it even more painful.
And, once again, all the features are based on community; about bringing people together and solidifying the 360 as the first social networking console. To deny that social networking isn’t important is just folly and any PS3 owner that says that they don’t really care about this is kidding themselves.
I still want a 360 but I’m waiting until after Natal launches in case MS does in fact release an updated system with Natal already installed.
My hope is that they’ll include wifi so I don’t have to spend another $100 bucks to connect to my wireless router on top of the cost of the system. It would also be nice to see a 300GB or larger HDD but I doubt that’ll ever happen.
