New Xbox Experience Launched Today. Whats The Verdict?

by Fallback on Nov 19th, 2008 in DLC, Xbox 360

The wait is over. The new dashboard/interface update for the Xbox 360 is live and in effect for all users with internet connectivity. If you are running your Xbox 360 on a computer monitor don't forget that now you can display a 16X10 aspect ratio over VGA or HDMI for 1440x900 or 1680x1050 resolutions. So far

So whats the verdict? What do you think?

I like it. Loving my elvis avatar.

Scatigno

I definitely like the marketplace more.
I like the fact that you get picture views of things i guess.

The friends thing is kinda cool, seeing everyone's avatars n what, lets me know what some ppl would look like. (if they're basing it off themselves that is lol)

Anyone else notice the party feature is fucking up?

Or am I just being kicked from EVERY party I'm in?

Cus it keeps saying everyone left party then I join the party again and everyone is in it...

Maybe my xbox is just fuckin up?

EVERY SINGLE party I join it ends up saying everyone left the party.

Why would it say that, even if I was being kicked?

And the party leader (a kid I know and talk to all the time) swears he wasn't kicking me.

It's just fucking up...I've been having other problems with it too, like getting signed out randomly and the marketplace freezing up...

Just downloaded COD: WaW to my hard drive.
It downloaded pretty quick and is definitely quieter while running.
Wish I didn't have to put the disc in still...

DJ Victory

Wish I had more than a 20gb hard drive

But maybe I'll try to put Dead Space on and check the feature out...

I don't trust my 360 very much so I try not to push her too much...it might hurt her feelings and she might not let me play with her anymore.

Red Fangs

Is there any way to uninstall this shit?

I know what you mean man but they have to do that. People with the biggest hard drives could basically buy brand new games, install them and then take them straight back to the shop and claim they was faulty so they can get a refund.

Scatigno

I'm curious...and I'm sure it can be done, although I don't have the knowledge to do it...

But I'm curious if people could just make a copy of the authorization process on a hard disk to use with the hard drive install. I'm sure it's possible and someone that knows about that kind of shit could probably do it pretty simple...So just buy or rent a game, hard drive install it and copy the authorization from it some how...(goes to research if it has already been done).
