I was trying to do that myself.. may be an issue there... It might be late but I love the update.. The new jericho is pretty cool as well.

Nice touch to an already solid game.

Wonder why it took this long for the 360? Was it exclusive or something?

[goh]

Apprently the PS3 version had quite a few problems and glitches they had to work out.
