Microsoft has deployed an update for the Xbox 360 which corrects display worries, but adds advertisements to the console released in 2005.
The Xbox 360 is surely the most popular Xbox of players. The Microsoft console, however, sounded its end of the end of the end of its online store almost a year ago, signing the end of the dematerialized game.
More than 20 years later, Microsoft has just deployed an update for the Xbox 360 which corrects an ugly display bug within its dashboard, but which does not only bring good news.

A new dashboard, but advertisements
The update has been raised by users on the SBRADDIT R/XBOX360 (via My city) who were delighted to see a big concern for Dashboard finally resolved after years.
The illustrations and game vignettes were stretched in the previous version of the interface, the new Dashboard now displays them normally.
The other addition is less delightful, Microsoft has implemented advertisements in its dashboard for Xbox Series X / S. One of the dashboard boxes shows a photo of the console and another QR code to the Microsoft site. History to remind the players of the Xbox 360 that they are two generations of delay.
Overall, the console interface is therefore much more pleasant to navigate for retrogamers, but these unsightly advertisements slightly tarnish the table.
