But I will be loved by gamers world wide, and in life, isn't that really all that matters?

Nope. It's all about the Benjamins!

Guys, how come when I press a direction on the d-pad, I go in the opposite direction?

Was d-pad technology not perfected 20 years ago?

According to Nelson there is not a concrete day for it yet.

Well, the update was meant to coincide with the release of GFW Live, and seeing that Halo 2, the only game that will be GFW Live, got pushed back 2 weeks, it only makes sense that the update would as well. Still bull shit though, and I am starting to hate Major Nelson more and more. He really does suck at his job. PR people are supposed to get people to like the company, not post shit about them on the internet.

EDIT: According to Xbox360fanboy, the spring update will be out tomorrow. There are a lot of reports of people calling customer service and getting confirmation that the update will indeed roll out at around 3am pacific. Take this as you will, as it wouldn't be the first time customer service didn't know what the hell they were talking about.

You'd think they were making enough money from charging $50 a year for peer-to-peer matchmaking, $5-10 to unlock content already on the disc, and $1-2 for small jpeg images to be used as gamerpics.

Huh?

No update yet, so don't be expecting it today. Hopefully tomorrow.

Edit: As has been pointed out by some community members, the official press release does say the ‘week of May 7th’ for a release time. So we’re well within that so far. It sounds like some folks missed that part, so that’s why I wanted to post this update.

There are, however, two videos on live that show you the features of the update.

I'd rather them take their time and release a stable update. If it's another mess like the Ultimate Alliance DLC, I will have to throw my 360 at poor black people.

The evolutionary ladder is a tough one to climb, eh?
