xbox 360 beta dashboard

So microsoft are going to release the new dashboard this month or next. Including kinect avatar and AP 25 update among resetting of the custom firmware for pirates. Looking at PSN getting hacked last week thats not good for the playstation 3 at all its a shame microsoft charges for live but if the security is better then im happy to pay the fee for using it. The new COD:blk ops expansion pack is out havent yet played it wonder if its any good? Im waiting for the new LA Noire game which looks really good i am a fan of GTA and Red Dead so lets see if this is any good guys
