omg, the new x-box dashboard is so fucking gay
And it takes forever to get it up and running and get netflix up and running. While I do like the new netflix set up, I hate the new dashboard.
Discuss. |
I hate pulling up my friend's list now. That white shit makes it look generic
|
Haters gonna hate.
|
The music and tones they use also make it sound like the Wii.
|
I was just about to post this, playing a dark room and opening up Xbox Live is death to your retinas.
|
the colors they are using is for a South American soccer team.
|
My god, I hate this. Should have the option to change it back :)
|
Miss the blade system to be honest.
|
Yeah, that wasn't bad. It was easier to find what you wanted. It is annoying not starting on the game channel. I just want to click one button to start the game in the disc drive.
|
Not liking the update at all, so much more harder to find stuff now.
|
I basically press the Live button to bring up the 'mini blade' menu and do stuff from there, even on the dashboard. Don't think I ever liked the ad filled floating TVs and shit. Literally looks like surfing a game site. I remember when it was one or two ads in the marketplace blade. Now Sasquatch is telling me about something involving jerky and game prizes.
And the coolest shit that came with last year's update, 1v100, was canceled. On the flip side my brother loves ESPN's channel. And I will like searching on Netflix. Both things that didn't need this blandly designed update but whatever. |
Hooray for not updating :heart:
|
1v100 was cancelled?
:( |
Yeah, that's dead. No new seasons planned.
|
That was one of my favourite things about Live :(

During the Beta they had changed the layout of the marketplace to be as great as possible. What they settled with is less great, but better still. Hope they fixed that thing with the RBN songs appearing in the market.
|
Also the my Xbox section next to whatever game you have in your console is greatly improved. Tells you off the bat what your settings look like and how many MSP you have.

Also, I hate the sounds the goddamn thing makes. I already have a goddamn headache. |

So it this voice quality only better through the party chat and messages, or is it better in game, as well?
|
Can I has mic sex with RoXy still?
|
It took me forever to get the stupid thing last night for whatever reason and then it finally starts up and took 2 steps back in design. Like Funky said I like the section that tells you about your points and such, and a few of the new apps, but the design is very lacking.
|
I jumped in a party right after the update, and everyone sounded like they where talking from inside a submarine. What a stupid update.

Voice chat is def better.

I got an XBox because it had its balls drop. If I wanted a Wii on steroids I would have bought a fucking Wii and stuck a needle in my ass.
|
I like it. Netflix is actually running better for me.
|
still gay as hell.
|
not as gay as Avatard
|
YOU ARE GAY, THAT IS WHY YOU ARE THE GAYMAN.
|
still not as gay as Avatard
|
:'(
|
:love:
|
:heart:
|
I see no problems with it really.
The only thing I don't like is that the sounds have gotten softer. Hate that for some reason. |
The sounds are like something a pre-schooler toy would make.
|
Well, the Kinect is for kids and retards, so it works.

FUCK YEAH! EXPLOSIONS! |
I just don't understand why they are makingtje dashboard more "family friendly", the reduce the text size so Grandma can't play.
|
i too don't get why they are making it impossible to read text on non-hd screens.
|
Because this is an HD world.
/Hasney |
Fuck yeah. Get with the times or fuck off. Go back to your Atari, grandpa.
|
Best Atari Games > Best Current Gen Games
Fact. |
BDC doesnt have an HDTV?
Let me guess, you have a donkey in your backyard that you have chase a carrot to power your home? And to have sex with? |
Good call Xero. Let's all play Yars Revenge. Yes, those squiggly lines are a shield and don't punch your TV, those sounds are meant to come out.
BRB, gonna see if I can link to a 5kbps Real Video file to show how awesome it is. |
The Atari, for the most part, sucked arse. My dad already had one when I was born and even a decent Ms. PAC-Man port couldn't save it.
Then I got a C64 and the enjoyment began. |

should have went with the HDTV

Should have gone with an HD projector while you were together and projected the picture on her arse. Sure it would fit.

Crossbow was the shit black in the day.

Also, have you guys seen what they did to my beautiful Earthworm Jim avatar award suit? They've redone the proportions to be like a halloween costume instead of an exact duplicate of EWJ.
|
HDTVs are cheap as fuck now..
|
I know, but it isn't a good time to get one. Maybe in a few month.

Yeah, it is..
It'd be different if big companies like Sony and Microsoft were force feeding us HD only shit if the tv's still cost thousands of dollars but you can get a top of the line LCD tv for a few hundred bucks.. |
No, it's still not the point.
But hey, be a bad consumer. Not sweat off my sack. |
Kris P, it isn't the point. I shouldn't have to get a new tv just to read the text on Risk Factions. I shouldn't have to spend hundreds of dollars to get full enjoyment out of a game I spent $5 on.
|
Yet eventually, you're going to have to join us in the 21st century. Companies won't be optimizing games for sdtv's much longer.
Otherwise, I can't wait for my 3D Avatar on VHS |
Still not the point, douche.
|
Did you fight buying an a tv with AV conection when N64 came out and coax wasn't the standard??
|
Lol

2) Right now is a really dumb time to get a new tv for me personally. And I'm sure I'm not the only person in the world that isn't in a position to get a new tv just for a couple of games. 3) I don't understand why microsoft of all companies is making a game console that is difficult to use with standard def tvs. I would understand Sony pulling that shit because they make tvs, but from what I understand playstations still work fine with standard tvs and can easily be read. Microsoft on the other hand does not sell tvs, nor any other hardware to speak of, so I don't quiet understand what advantage it is for them to make font hard to read. |
It's not just for games though.. Even Judge Judy is in 16:9..
|
I moved to an HDTV only a few months ago, been playing on an SDTV the whole time before that and I never had problems reading the text. Dead Rising was the only one and even that was only a few words. I haven't mpved my xbox to another tv since the dashboard update but I might now just to see how bad thex you and Haseny say it is. Also, I'm pretty sure it was never their intention to purposely make the text hard to read.
Also, when you do to the right time to buy one, Sears was offering a sick 32" 1080P LG for like $300. Dunno if they still have it up though. |
Buy a Vizio..
