Xbox 360 Round-up - BioShock patch, lots of downloads

If you were wondering what the recent BioShock auto-update does, the official word is that it "improves stability when loading autosaves and overall game stability, corrects audio during title menu loading and addresses AI behaviors regarding use of health stations." It does not make the game playback choppy as some have reported (remember, that happens anyway for some players who use the hard drive). If you run into this problem, try rebooting the title from the dashboard while holding both left and right bumper buttons down to clear the cache.

Here's what else is new for 360 gamers:
  • Xbox Live Arcade: Cyberball 2072 ($5) and Fatal Fury Special ($5)
  • Soltrio Solitaire Game Pack 7 ($1.88) with 10 games including Canfield, Klondike 2 and Yukon
  • Tiger Woods PGA Tour 08 purchaseable cheat code to max out all skills ($2.50; by the way, please don't encourage EA by actually buying this!)
  • Demos: FlatOut UC and NBA Live 08
  • Themes: Beautiful Katamari ($1.88), BioShock ($1.88), Medal of Honor Airborne ($1.88), Resident Evil 5 ($0.38), Alpine Summers ($1.88) Element Girls ($1.88), Golden Gate Bridge ($1.88), Golden Retriever ($1.88), Numskullz ($1.88) Summer Girls ($1.88) and Weimaraner ($1.88)
  • Pictures: Beautiful Katamari ($1 per pack), Fatal Fury Special ($0.75), Medal of Honor Airborne ($1.88), Shrek the Third ($1.13), Element Girls ($1), Golden Retriever ($1.25), Numskullz ($1) Summer Girls ($1) and Weimaraner ($1)
  • Game Videos: Blazing Angels 2, Eternal Sonata and SEGA Rally
And Xbox Live Marketplace now stocks Family Guy episodes, if you're into that...
