Any thoughts?

I was sooo sceptical about the whole avatar system they were going to introduce, but it turned out so nice! I love how you can customize it with all the cute clothes and accessories! *giggles*



The menu itself is pretty confusing still, I'm so used to the old that I keep on getting lost. I can't access any stuff from the marketplace either, anyone has the same problem?

Yeah, same problem with the marketplace stuff. Took me about 5 tries to buy a theme - I'm guessing they'll have it fixed soon though.

Overall, I like it. The netflix feature, new layout, group chat/party system, and the ability to download games to your HDD (even though mine is too small for something like that) all seems promising.

Same! I was checking at prices for a HDD with a greater capacity, but it's really expensive. :\ See how long I can keep this one before it's completely stuffed.

I got 60 GB HDD so :/ Big enough for me atm. Still gotta wire some internet to my xbox tho....

was hoping for a classic theme cus its not bad but i do prefer the old style a lot more, seemed cleaner and less cluttered so was easy to use

I'll post a picture of mine later :3

I like it too Better than the original one actually hehe, and woot I'm in the pic ^_^

Line up girls. I can't satisfy you all at the same time!

edit: RuYi, I added you - I just noticed our bios are both personal ads lol.

That avatar is so you.. ;p

Haven't had the time to install the update yet, perhaps later tonight.

i dont care for it. most of the guy avatars seemed sorta... gay. was playin halo3 and every1 i came across today thought they were stupid and lame.

the dashboard istself is ok, but im with wong that the old 1 was better.

Thats probably because most players on Halo3 online are actually stupid and gay.

more like stupid and/or need to hit puberty

Win by T.K.O.

Hahaha that avatar is so cool! Your profile had me laughing, charming indeed.

I was thinking, this update allows you to plant your games on the HDD, which is nice (if you have the space), it's more silent if the 360 doesn't have to use the drive, maybe it won't get as warm then, but won't people buy a game, ditch it on the HDD, play it from there and return the game to the store? I don't know if you guys get your money back when you return it, or have to exchange for another game, but won't the gamecompanies lose money if people were to do this?

Hmmm, I used to get my money back when i returned games.

If that's the case, won't people buy a game, ditch it in the HDD and return it the same day? Or am I missing something crucial here?
Where I live, you can only trade the game for another one within 24 hours, and you won't get your money back.

I like it.

Was thinking the same thing.

Monday: Buy a game, put it on your hdd
Tuesday: Return the game, trade it for another, same story
Wednesday: Repeat the cycle
Thursday: And again

etc etc But if you do it like twice they'll already get suspicious hehe xD

I'll get a pic of mine later today I think

/Edit: Here's mine, bit blurry but it's from my phone You two used a camera?

Surely you have to insert the disc to start up the game, then it just reads the data from the hard drive.

I'm sure there is something in place to stop people from doing that RuYi

Yup yup, pretty sure you have to have the disc in to run it from the HDD. It does the initial check, and then loads everything from the HDD.

97% sure

Don't have enough space on my hdd or I would've tryed it >.<

Nice avatar, Moshe! I like the hair!
I took a picture with my camera yeah, if I took it with my phone it'd look terrible lol.


Oh I didn't think of that before lol, they probably got that feature to prevent everyone from running back and forth to the store.

Gamespot wrote an article before the new patch was released on the loading time improvements. It's only a couple of seconds, but since I play the same two games I did it - the sound reduction is nice. They said that you needed the disk in to run a game too.

I just started playing my xbox more than my PC and it's a pain in the ass always having to swap CDs - I wish there was a way around this.

Mmmz, play 1 game only. EUREKA.

Shame it doesn't work...Now you can't use mine Fable RuYi ^_^

And thx haha...tried/tryed (omg which one is it) to make it look like me, atleast a bit haha.

Minez:

So wait if you copy the game to the HDD you still need the disk?
If so whats the point of copying the game to the HDD?

nice been quite but stil id like to see some smart arse coming up with a hack now to allow you to do it without the disc at all

i mean you can connect a computer to the xbox surly you can copy files back and forth right? (never tried it btw)

LIKE OMG YOU GIRLS LOOK SOOO SEXY!

Offtopic:

Shomari, I see that you're good at halo with kills etc, but why do you only have 1.5k ex out of 5k+ matches? >.< And how do you get that bungie.net sig thing, I want it too

I was doubting the avatar thing and just labeling it as a cheap ripoff to Wii's Mii. But its pretty sweeeet.

Kinda blurry, phone camera.
