Estava a navegar pelas Interwebs quando me deparei com esta notícia no Xbox360Achievements:

The Fall Xbox 360 dashboard update has been revealed to our colleagues at OXM from Microsoft and it's looking very good indeed with gaming classics and films on demand.


December 4 is the date you'll need to watch out for; that's the day you'll be able to download and play Halo. Yes, Halo as in the Xbox game, through Marketplace, on your Xbox 360.


Microsoft is introducing games it has published for the original Xbox on XBL Marketplace, with the eventual plan to bring as much of the back catalogue across as possible.


Games cost about 1200 Microsoft points (about ten quid), which according to us puts them a little over what you'd pay for them second hand.


The initial list of downloads includes Halo, Fable, Fahrenheit, Crimson Skies: High Road To Revenge, Crash Bandicoot: The Wrath Of Cortex and Burnout 3. All good then, apart from maybe Crash.


And if that wasn't enough, films on demand, though not confirmed for the December 4 date, aren't far away. Studios such as Warner Bros are potentially lined up for the service, so we can look forward to films such as The Dark Knight, The Assassination of Jesse James and I Am Legend appearing eventually.


Films will cost less than a fiver and come in 720p resolution. You have 14 days to start watching a film once it has downloaded. Once you started watching a film, you have 24 hours to finish it. After that, the film deletes itself from your hard drive. It's basically an online rental service then, like the US Video Marketplace.


What do these new additions mean for the future of Xbox Live Arcade? Does the PS3's PSOne download service now look horribly dated? It's going to be an exciting 2008 in the download space, for sure.



Jogos da Xbox original no XBL Marketplace por 1200 pontos? espero que isto nao seja só para os Estados Unidos (e o HDD de 120 GB está-se a tornar um must-buy :D)
 
Eu queria é que o media center extender suportasse qq video codec instalado no PC, isso sim.

Ou suporte nativo para x264.


Mas duvido...
 
isso quer dizer que o videomarketplace chega a portugal ja este natal?




Duvido que isso aconteça, porque para o Video Marketplace ter conteudos a Microsoft tinha que pagar às entidades que detêm os direitos de emissao dos conteudos (por exemplo, se quisessem colocar Sopranos no Video Marketplace, teriam que pagar os direitos à RTP por é a estaçao que passa a série em Portugal, logo detém os direitos da série). Nos Estados Unidos sao as empresas que detêm os direitos que dao "autorizaçao" para que a Microsoft coloque no Marketplace os seus conteudos, mas estes direitos pertencem a diferentes entidades conforme o país.
 
"We are excited to work with Sony Computer Entertainment to bring DivX to PS3," said Kevin Hell, CEO of DivX, Inc. "Our technology will expand the multimedia functionality of PS3 by enabling users to enjoy access to the broad library of content in the DivX digital media format."

Se vão distribuir jogos de Xbox1 através do Live é bom que usem algum metodo diferente e que os jogos não venham com 4GB caso de Halo, se não é um desperdicio completo de largura de banda e de disco rigido.

Dava mais importancia era se viê-se um novo update á compatibilidade com os jogos da Xbox1 e viessem mais uns 50 jogos na lista, isso sim era de valor.

E os 20 GB do disco já não serviam para muita coisa.
 
Some of the contents of Microsoft's Fall Update for the 360 are now public knowledge, courtesy of the Official Xbox Mag. Highlight? The 360 gets its very own Virtual Console, with original Xbox games to be added to the Marketplace. The first available games include Halo, Fahrenheit, Fable, Crimson Skies (wonderful!), Crash Bandicoot: The Wrath Of Cortex and Burnout 3. Each of those will set you back 1200 Microsoft points (USD$15). Also confirmed for the update is that Europe will finally be getting the video marketplace. So! December 4's the day. Go circle it in your best red pen. In the meantime, feel free to wonder aloud what else will be in store. And how long it'll be until you can download Jet Set Radio Future.

Parece que o Video Marketplace sempre vem para a Europa, agora falta saber que países o vao receber.
