Last week I talked about the Zune 3.0 update with ZuneThoughts.com’s Jason Dunn and today Jason has details of the Zune 3.1 update.  The Zune now has 3 news games and multi-player Texas Hold ‘Em. The news games are:

Checkers: "Checkers – the eternal strategy challenge you can learn in minutes and play for life. Play the classic game or try suicide mode, in which the first to lose all their pieces wins."

SuDoKu: "Solve Sudoku by filling in all nine rows and columns with the numerals 1 through 9. Each numeral can only be placed once in a given row or column. Play the classic 9×9 or a quick 6×6 game

Space Battle: "Survive as long as you can against increasingly aggressive waves of alien attackers! Customize your ship and add weapons to your armory as you progress through the game."

Jason says that the other update are:

  • Zune Social enhancements include a visual refresh to make things easier to navigate, and a new feature called "Like Minded Listeners" that will let you see how compatible your music tastes are with friends and other listeners.
  • There’s improved stability and performance in both the device firmware and desktop software. One the device they’ve improved the play count reporting and content synchronization, especially channels and wireless purchases from the device. The device side firmware should also eliminate some of the lag we sometimes see.

The update should happen the next time you sync your Zune.
