XMB ftw!]]>Jul 15th 2010 1:34PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/15/xbox-360-getting-dashboard-revision-this-november/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/15/xbox-360-getting-dashboard-revision-this-november/Jul 15th 2010 1:55PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/15/xbox-360-getting-dashboard-revision-this-november/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/15/xbox-360-getting-dashboard-revision-this-november/
I don't mind changes to the UI, but if they are changing it to a horizontal menu system instead of keeping it angled ... that's not very helpful.

I like being able to see 6 boxes on screen instead of what appears to be 3 (or maybe 4). I can see 12 Netflix movie titles on screen at once when it's angled. It's easier to find the item you want faster.]]>Jul 15th 2010 2:03PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/15/xbox-360-getting-dashboard-revision-this-november/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/15/xbox-360-getting-dashboard-revision-this-november/Jul 15th 2010 2:14PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/15/xbox-360-getting-dashboard-revision-this-november/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/15/xbox-360-getting-dashboard-revision-this-november/maybe someday but they'll certainly change their ui before thisisit changes its picture]]>Jul 15th 2010 2:50PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/15/xbox-360-getting-dashboard-revision-this-november/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/15/xbox-360-getting-dashboard-revision-this-november/and the next ban-wave will probably occur.]]>Jul 15th 2010 4:44PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/15/xbox-360-getting-dashboard-revision-this-november/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/15/xbox-360-getting-dashboard-revision-this-november/

I think I like the current dashboard better.

And what's up with all of the wasted space on the left?]]>Jul 15th 2010 4:39PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/15/xbox-360-getting-dashboard-revision-this-november/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/15/xbox-360-getting-dashboard-revision-this-november/Jul 15th 2010 4:50PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/15/xbox-360-getting-dashboard-revision-this-november/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/15/xbox-360-getting-dashboard-revision-this-november/Jul 15th 2010 12:52PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/15/xbox-360-getting-dashboard-revision-this-november/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/15/xbox-360-getting-dashboard-revision-this-november/I in the same mind frame. When the new dash came out it was fast enough not to notice but not it seems everything has to load. Even when you go into your video library you get a load screen. ]]>Jul 15th 2010 12:57PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/15/xbox-360-getting-dashboard-revision-this-november/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/15/xbox-360-getting-dashboard-revision-this-november/
I agree though, it's so annoying. It shouldn't take five seconds to load any Guide window.]]>Jul 15th 2010 1:34PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/15/xbox-360-getting-dashboard-revision-this-november/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/15/xbox-360-getting-dashboard-revision-this-november/Jul 15th 2010 12:53PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/15/xbox-360-getting-dashboard-revision-this-november/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/15/xbox-360-getting-dashboard-revision-this-november/
Except it sucks navigating the PS Store for stuff compared to the Marketplace on Live. And this UI was based off Media Center and Zune, but yea, it does basically look just like a sideways XMB (I have 360 and PS3 btw in case you wondered). But what is the real change here besides being completely straight and not slanted???]]>Jul 15th 2010 12:57PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/15/xbox-360-getting-dashboard-revision-this-november/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/15/xbox-360-getting-dashboard-revision-this-november/

XMB won a freaking Emmy. That's like giving the TI-88 graphing calculator a Pulitzer for ergonomic redesign. Is there any relevance or credibility there? Not to mention Sony has film and TV and music studios in Hollywood whereas no other tech company can make those claims in terms of other SBUs related to entertainment. Biased? ]]>Jul 15th 2010 1:23PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/15/xbox-360-getting-dashboard-revision-this-november/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/15/xbox-360-getting-dashboard-revision-this-november/Jul 15th 2010 6:39PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/15/xbox-360-getting-dashboard-revision-this-november/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/15/xbox-360-getting-dashboard-revision-this-november/http://www.xbox.com:80/en-US/kinect/entertainment.htm towards the bottom of the page.]]>Jul 15th 2010 12:55PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/15/xbox-360-getting-dashboard-revision-this-november/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/15/xbox-360-getting-dashboard-revision-this-november/Jul 15th 2010 12:55PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/15/xbox-360-getting-dashboard-revision-this-november/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/15/xbox-360-getting-dashboard-revision-this-november/I also miss the video market place, how it was a smooth and fast transition from the menu into the market. Unlike the Zune where as I select it and i get a nice long load screen :\

Also I still worried about my prem themes]]>Jul 15th 2010 12:55PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/15/xbox-360-getting-dashboard-revision-this-november/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/15/xbox-360-getting-dashboard-revision-this-november/Jul 15th 2010 12:57PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/15/xbox-360-getting-dashboard-revision-this-november/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/15/xbox-360-getting-dashboard-revision-this-november/
They both have their pros and cons. Buying and navigating content to buy or purchase is faster and easier on 360/Zune, instant stream on 360 currently, and updating stuff and installing downloads is way faster on 360. But XMB keeps that plain, simple elegant look consistent in my PS3, Bravia in my bedroom, and Sony Blu Ray player. Then again, MS is trying to keep consistency with Zune and 360 UI and Media Center. If NXE/Dashboard had a Zunish theme would look just as nice and sleek as XMB probably.]]>Jul 15th 2010 1:03PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/15/xbox-360-getting-dashboard-revision-this-november/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/15/xbox-360-getting-dashboard-revision-this-november/Jul 15th 2010 1:02PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/15/xbox-360-getting-dashboard-revision-this-november/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/15/xbox-360-getting-dashboard-revision-this-november/>>> 360's UI IMO. I just wish we could get something that looks "high end" like the PS3 instead of looking like it was designed at Fisher-Price. Not that the 360 UI isn't powerful - it is. I just don't like how it looks.

As for the pic, that's a hilarious gamertag.
