I’ll post more details later today, but it was just announced at E3 that the next Xbox 360 system update (coming this fall) will have 8 party chat, Netflix and more.
Awesome =) OMG major this is what people are asking for and its finaly here.
This is awesome
Wow! I heart Netflix!
Thats awespme cant wait to see the new look
Not sure if i like the look of it
hopefully it will function well
The new dash is terrible. Goes and unplugs ethernet cable from xbox...........
Please have the option to keep the dash we have now. There was an overlay of a similar one during the netflix demo.
Please keep the current dashboard, or have the option to switch.
This is truly awful, and as a mature gamer, is already putting me off. :(
Ugh, the avatars look stupid. And what about all that wasted screen space? Thumbs down.
And Major: logging in is broken again.
The Dashboard is absolutely terrible. Please don't make this a must have update. Let us have the current Dashboard. The new Dashboard is TERRIBLE. Absolutely terrible. It's a joke. A one, big, terrible, joke. Please don't make this a must have. Please.
Netflix currently offers movie streaming to users on PC's. They do not offer their entire library for streaming, mostly older stuff. They do offer a few new releases, but not anything good. hopefully they offer more titles through XBOX.
You guys are crazy, the new dash looks great. You're already crying about something that none of you have even used yet.
As a hardcore gamer myself, I don't think there is anything wrong with the new dash. It looks pretty awesome. It will take some getting used to and even though I do believe that this is a blatant attempt at conforming to the trends being set by Nintendo and Sony, as well as a cry out to casuals to get them on side, I honestly like the look of this new "experience".
Yeah, the new dash doesn't look all that great. I hope we can still use dashboard themes to cover all that grey in the background. But the 8 person party that can jump from game to game is cool. And Netflix. That is, in my opinion, probably the biggest news of all. And if we can view HD, that would make great news even more staggering.
I haven't saw the new update can someone take/upload a picture please
NO! Let us keep our current dashboard! And let us keep our gamerpics, not those Mii-copys! I like our current stuff better than the new dash and avy-thing...
Unfortunately, adding US only initiatives like Netflix is only going to make the rest of us feel even more isolated. Unless Netflix is going global, this is only going to add more hate fodder for the users in every country other than the US.
I know it's a rights issue, but c'mon, let's add something that everyone can use.
I want to keep the current dashboard. As you've showed with Vista, eye candy isn't everything. I love the current dashboard. Don't make me change :(
Where is this new dashboard? I can't see it
Canada,
Just become the largest Xbox market and everyone will cater to you.........
If MS worried about what New Zealand could have and support it would look more like the Nintendo online functionality.
Wow! is all I have to say about the Microsoft Conference. Absolutely terrible! Announced a terrible new Dashboard Interface, no announcements about additional peripherals (Blu-ray anyone?), and big games everyone already know about. C'mon Microsoft, get your act together.
Looks awesome!!!
2 words about the chat thing...
About Time
and
your late
-_-
Gotta say i don't like the look of the new Dash... and get that stupid avatar thing off my screen
it looks ok.... but you went over the top with the avatars. you've just proved youself to be copying miis.
all the stupid animations when they change clothes. waving, dancing, what the hell is all that about? whilst i'm not keen on the avatar idea, a simple model person wouldn't have bothered me so badly. but you've made it look so childish. what about the older gamers? they're going to look like idiots.
