Is their a way that I can update XBox 360 games without XBox Live?
Is there a way for me to update Xbox 360 games without an Xbox Live membership? My Xbox Live subscription is about to expire, and I do not plan to renew it. When Xbox 360 games receive updates, is there a method to download those updates from a website and then transfer them to my Xbox using a flash drive or disc? I understand that for original Xbox games, it is possible to download updates from the website and import them to the console. Is a similar process available for Xbox 360 game updates? Thank you in advance for your responses.

To receive game updates, you do NOT have to have an Xbox Live Gold subscription. As long as you are connected you will still be able to receive system updates, game updates, and download games, movies and other content from Marketplace, etc. You just won’t be able to use online gaming, Facebook, Twitter, Netflix, ESPN, videoKINECT, etc. This is the only way to receive game updates.System updates, i.e. to update your Dashboard are different. You can insert a new release video game (assuming it has a newer Dashboard update to what your console has) into your console. You will not be able to play the video game without accepting the update.You can also download system updates from the Support section of Xbox.com. You can then burn the files to a DVD, CD or flash drive.
No. Updates have to be downloaded through Xbox Live.
However, you don’t have to have Live Gold to do that — a free Silver account is enough, so as long as your console is connected to Live then you’ll still get updates.
If I’m correct I do believe some games come with updates..sometimes mine would update with new released games before I went live
