Ok so Im sure most of you have seen the new Dash and its Features, what do you guys think of it? I dont much care for the new look however its kinda growing on me. Also I think im going to have to get a NetFlix account, I mean 10,000 movies on Que, I like it. The party system is also cool but not really sure how its gonna work, does that mean all Multiplayer games are gonna have to use a party system now?
New Xbox 360 Dashboard, Like it or Loath it?
Yeah, it looks cool. I like all the other features they're coming out with too, like Netflix and the games that you can play live with your avatars.
The avatars seem awsome and i could go either way on the dashboard look but i do like the blades a lot better
its meh, i really feel indifferent to the whole thing. I wish they would just give us a choice about what we want rather then forcing it on us
Ya, avatar system I don`t like, but I can`t wait to get my hands of the mini dashboard that comes up with the Guide button. Xbox Guide has needed a revamp for awhile now.
I'm looking forward to it. I'm really tired of the current dashboard and how terribly organized everything is. The new dash looks slick, the avatars look a bit better than Miis which is a plus, and the new guide looks fantastic. It looks like a very promising update and I wish it was already available.
It's amazing. But the current GUI, c'mon, its pretty laggy haha. I mean, when im in a game, and i open my guide, it takes pretty long to pop up, load everything, and pop back down, and usually I get killed online that way. -sigh
But yeah I know, it shares RAM etc wtih everything else even the game being played so.. Eh.
I like the new dashboard, but I'm just wondering what will happen with all the gamerpics and themes that I downloaded.
I personally like the look of it. So what if it copies the Media Center look. And if it makes it easier to find things on XBL I will like it even more.
I love it, I think it looks great, mostly because I was never a huge fan of the blades design. Also the idea of unlocking clothing and stuff for my avatar seems pretty cool, better than achievements for achievements sake I guess.
I bet you any money being Micro$oft they will charge money for packs of new clothes, other than that though, all round EPIC WIN
I really like the new dashboard, it's damn sleek. But, I really wish that it were optional, you know incase it's not as good as it looks. But I feel like there are too many new dashboard-specific features in it that could not be done in the old dashboard, so it most likely will not happen that way.
I dont really like the avatars, they just dont have any charm about them. Other than that, the idea to simplify things should be useful.
"I hate it :( I always liked the blades, they just needed to be reorganized IMO. This one looked soulless and boring... hopefully they will at least let us use our themes from the blades or that would suck for all the people who paid for them.Yeah, you can use your old themes in the new DB, and they look a lot better now!
