That was fast wasn’t it? Just Wednesday, Microsoft announced it would be updating Xbox.com with some feature changes in “the coming days.” Well, today is the day, and if you head on over you will see the changes have gone into effect. You can now set Beacons, the My Xbox section has been replaced with more streamlined Social section, Friend Activity is more organized and right there on your Home page – it’s all very snazzy, really. Something else – you can now cancel your Xbox Live subscription online instead of doing it over the phone. Hooray for ease and all that.

Xbox.com went down for maintenance earlier today, and came back with the promised web-based Marketplace – complete with “coming soon” graphic.

The new feature will allow people to buy stuff from Live then download it to their 360s later on, which is probably pretty cool.

Also, as you can see here if you’re logged in to Xbox.com, Avatars are now being included on profile pages for those who already have NXE.

And if you haven’t, the wait’s almost over: it launches tomorrow.
