New Xbox Experience

Concept »

The New Xbox Experience, or NXE, overhauled the XBOX 360's dashboard, released on November 19th, 2008. A new "Metro" dashboard was released on December 6th, 2011.

Anyone else want to see their Avatars in M rated situations?

Nintendo couldn't do it because of it's family friendly approach but Microsoft is a whole different animal.  I want my Avatar to be in a gunfight, I want to blow my friend's Avatar's head off, I want to exterminate their Wii-like cuteness with Gears-like violence.

An XBLA arcade shooter that features Avatars would be very cool and I I think would be quite popular, as long as it plays well.  Get on this game developers!

PSN's Pain would be pretty great for Avatars

They want this to be family friendly, so not happening

Yeah, the presentation in the dashboard is family friendly, but who says an M Rated game that uses your Avatars has to be.  Children aren't supposed to play them, remember?

That would actually be pretty awesome.

Aye. I'd like to see some kind of mature content on there somewhere. I'm sick of video games pandering to the family market.

I want to chainsaw my digital persona in half.  Really...

not really, i dont want to switch to the dashboard and catch my avatar with his hand in his pants.

An online shooter with the avatars would be a good idea.

Yep, I agree.  A couple people on my friends list have avatars I'd really like to be able to chainsaw in half, too.

Avatars banging hookers and then killing them to take the money back would be awesome. It would make me buy a 360.

That is so politically incorrect.
I love this.
