    It gets updated on a Thursday...

    Hopefully this also might improve some framerates in games such as COD4 and PES2008, as since 2.00, COD4 has struggled slightly.

        SVR - Duhhh, it is a fix, not an update to the features, hence why it is a #.#X update, not a #.X update >_>

        I wonder if it fixes the signing out issue that was present for some, since version 1.4 or whatever it was?

    Hmm its a bit better. I've gotten one error since downloading the patch which is tolerable. A lot of people are dissatisfied with it though
