flameboy Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 So is it the revolution it was made out to be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triple_C Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 So is it the revolution it was made out to be? Not really. Just a few new handy features. Installing games on you hard drive does make a noticeable difference and being able to delete game with zero gamer score from you profile does make it much less cluttered. It does look better than the old dashboard, but by no means a revolution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dazzybee Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 The avatars are pretty shit. They sort of look good, really solid, nice style, clothes customisation is awesome (Nintendo please do this!!!) but the character creation is AWFUL! I can't believe they ripped off the Miis and didn't improve on them, or even equal what they're capable of! If you'e avergae build, normal hair, average face shape then yes, you will have an amazing Avatar of you! But the scope is so limiting it's unreal! The Miis pee all over avatars!!

Cube Posted November 19, 2008 Author Share Posted November 19, 2008 TBH, the most important thing Microsoft need to do now is remove the "Invite All" option. Or alter it so it only invites people who have played the damn game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bren Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 For some reason the fan on my 360 won't switch off when I switch the console off... Piece of crap. Are you downloading or have u got a controller charging? If ya turn it off n on fast it normally goes off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daft Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 Are you downloading or have u got a controller charging? If ya turn it off n on fast it normally goes off. Neither but it's gone off now I switched it on and off. Weird. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimbob Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 Marketplace is currently a half alive, half dead thing atm. If you manage to get inside, it does look good. But sometimes it will cut you off. I managed to get on and download the Fable II theme. Also at the moment, i have on the HDD installed: GTA IV, Fable II and Nuts and Bolts. All load faster than before, and no more disk whirring. I'm not clogging up the whole of the 120gb HDD with all my titles just yet, these 3 will do fine. So far first thoughts are it is a very good upgrade of which i mean it is better than the slides and is more animated than before. Good work is what i say.

Tales Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 The new BSG theme is horrible. A dark blue background with only a huge BSG logo which is halfway hidden behind the 360 globe or whatever it is. In the friend list there are only white boring spaceships and weird robot which do not look like Galactica or any other Colonial ship or Cylons. I think I'll buy the Last Remnant theme instead.

That Guy Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 Lol my Xbox has already crashed on the new dash! Hopefully that isn't the beginning of the end for it. I think it looks nice and I do think it's much easier to find everything. And no more 0 point games on my history!! No more Sonic the Hedgehog on there! I can finally forget I ever bought that game and move on! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
