New Xbox 360 Dashboard

Recommended Posts

Just downloaded the new Halo 3 theme for the new Dashboard and it looks absolutely stunning!

 

If anyone is thinking of picking it up do so now!

Hope they iron out the kinks in this. It must have froze on me 3 times navigating various things.

Mine did too after exiting a friend's thing in the friend area

 

Yeah that's exactly the same as what mine did. Maybe it would have come back to life if I'd left it but it was late and I was tired so just turned it off.

Glad that some people have had the same problem cos it means it's probably just a bug in the dash rather than my console about to die :)

 

I dunno, 250 is a bit steep for a theme

 

Yeah especially considering all they really are is a background and it changes your friends list. I got the Fable one just to see what they look like and it was ok but not worth 250 points. Probably wont bother again unless theres a really great one.

I had the friend list thing too was a bit paranoid that my console was gonna die on me, which would be bad since the store I bought from just closed...

I was gonna download this last night to see what it was all like, but it was 1am and I just wanted to play Oblivion so couldn't be bothered waiting for the download so I just cancelled it. I'll download it once I get home later and make my avatar.

Anyone got Bomberman Live ?

 

There is an update with the Avatars but everytime I star the game it says there is a new update, I download it but then it keeps taking me back to the same menu and I cant play the game no more.

 

I have deleted it off my system re-downloaded it and its still saying the same thing :wtf:

 

Anyone got a workaround ?

 

Thanks

Can anyone tell how some ppl have got their avatar in their MGC 'NXE' sig where as other ppl (like me) haven't? How do u get it to be in there?

It's a bit iffy, look at mine, just a pink rectangle, sometimes it's a grey questionmark, they haven't made their minds up yet. I think it will just take a while for the cards to work properly with the new avatars. You're not the only one where it's not working, and yet you're not doing anything different. I'm assuming you took your picture after you made your avatar and made it your gamerpic? Might not work if you didn't.

Mine is all working now, and so is the majority of the Marketplace now. May have a few teething problems with it, but they will soon go in time i think.

First wave of new Avatar clothing will be free

 

You can calm your "will new Avatar clothes cost me Microsoft points?" worries, because Microsoft is committed to offering the upcoming Avatar fashion choices for free ... for now.

 

Talking to German website dreisechzig.net, Boris Schneider-Johne (Microsoft's Xbox product manager in Germany) confirmed that the first few weeks of new Avatar clothes will be available for free, but doesn't go as far to say that all Avatar clothing in the future will be available for no charge. "More costumes will be made available for free in the next weeks" says Schneider-Johne, adding "what's going to happen as of spring is yet to be announced." So, feel free t put those Microsoft points back in your pocket ... for now.

If they were smart they would offer some free and then charge a small amount for stuff such as football shirts or something like that. I'm sure people wouldn't mind spending a bit on that kind of crap.
