Microsoft outlines Xbox Live Dashboard details - Image 1

Kicking off the New Xbox Experience dashboard update is a contest from Microsoft. If you're lucky, you just might take home that grand prize of 500,000 MS Points. Damn! That's... *calculates* ...a LOT! Even if I won all that, I wouldn't know what to do with it!

Announced this week is a new download-and-win sweepstakes on Xbox Live. Your ticket for entry is simply to download any XBL content from any of these categories:

Movie
TV Show
Full Arcade Game
Xbox Originals Game
Game Add-On
Music Video

For your download to be considered part of the sweepstakes, you have to do the downloading between 6:01 AM PST on November 19th (which is the same day that Experience goes live, mind you) and 11:59 PM PST on November 23rd. So good luck! Here's a full list of prizes being offered by Microsoft:

One Grand Prize of 500,000 MS Points
Five 1st Prizes of 50,000 MS Points
Ten 2nd Prizes of 10,000 MS Points
Thirty 3rd Prizes of 5,000 MS Points
