Images obtained by Joystiq seem to reveal that Microsoft is set to unleash a new Dashboard update for the Xbox 360 which integrates the popular payment service Paypal, and sees support for the consoles updated disc format go live, starting May 19.
The site received two images of documents from a source within Microsoft’s tech support team stating the update will be distributed in six stages between May 19 and May 30. This, according to the documents, is "to ensure a high quality deployment."
An updated disc format, now confirmed and titled XGD3, was first reported on in March, and offers additional storage space as well as “additional layers of copy protection.”
Avatar Kinect, a chat room feature for Avatars using Kinect to track movement and facial expressions of the gamer, is also listed for launch on May 27 separate from the spring Dashboard update.
