Posted by David as Gadzooki News

$30 for Free Backwards Compat Update If you had a problem “installing” backwards compatability updates on your Xbox 360, then Curcuit City has the deal for you. They will install the updates on your Xbox 360 for $28.99.

If you pay this, I will feel really bad for you. To install the updates, you only need to have your Xbox 360 hooked up to the Internet. This is just a money grab by Circuit City, preying on parents that don’t know how simple it actually is.
