Did any other gamer notice that the Marketplace blade is the first blade? Meaning - you have to changed blades to actually play your game?
This will piss me off, I have my tv automated, so switching between inputs takes a moment, so i tend to scroll the through menu blind and the game is loading before the right input is selected.
M$ is pushing the media entirely too hard, I want to play a game, not have to mess with the lousy interface. Sure, the dashboard is kinda cool for certain purposes, but thats why i liked the PS2, it went right to the game, XB360 should have the startup option of going right to the game or loading up the inconvenient dashboard.
@NavyMSU: Just because it's the first blade, it doesn't mean it will start up on that first. There already is the option to boot straight to the game, it was added in the last update (I'm sure it boots to the game as default because I remember having to change it to boot to dash, which I prefer).
HP's Jon Rubenstein told us that his company wanted to veer in a new direction, and veer it surely did -- the HP Veer 4G will arguably be the smallest fully-functional smartphone on the market when it goes on sale May 15th.

Um...Go to the System Blade > Console Settings > Startup > Disc
That'll make it so that the disc in the disc tray will play automatically when you startup your 360.
