New Xbox 360 Dashboard Leaked?

Posted by DPsx7 - Monday, July 28, 2008 2:54 PM

Why bother. The console is dead in the water. I mean they can't make any decent games so instead they'll just steal the Mii's idea and try to change their stupid interface to appear like they're doing something constructive. And judging from the comments outta M$'s camp lately, they seem desperate to get outta 3rd place overall.

The old one was better. I know you xbox boys can't wait to make your Mii's.

I agree, it really seems that this total overhall of the 360 was a desperate move by M$ to try and keep up with everyone else.

i agree they do seem desperate to reach out to a broader audience by the avatars looking like Mii's, but they already have great games and are not in third. coma caca DPsx7.

i disagree with keeping up, ps3's dash sucks. but idk know if i like this new 360 dash either.
looks like they are just using the Microsoft media center interface.

Avatars look nothing like miis, thats like saying that PS home is copying miis because you have people you customize. I honestly don't care about the avatars cause they seem useless but I do like the idea of changing up the dashboard, its something new, changing things is a good idea and I don't know why people are bitching about it. If you don't like it sell your 360

Totally sucks that xbox 360 has 4 exclusives ranked over 90% while PS3 only has 1. System is so dead it doesn't even have games like Gears of War 2 or Fable 2 coming out. In fact, it's so dead Sony isn't even losing exclusives left and right for their PS3.

losers

Regardless on if you like the update or not its still coming out I think they have some unique features with the update and they are simular to Mii's. But so is PS3 Trophies to the achievements. If something works other companies are gonna mimick it Regardless how much people complain about it. 360 so far is the only console very friendly for friends to enjoy online play. The only thing with the PS3 Interface that bugged me was Same as PSP also they took so long to let you read messages in game.

I think this fanboy crap is a waste of time and it shows you how big of a loser you are.. @ScottFleener, DPsx7, & clayfighter to name a few..

I have both systems and I have to say I like both, 360 has a Much better online community Ps3 is fine but they are making the right moves to try to gain ground.. The Ps3 is really starting to hit their stride as I do feel they have a strong lineup coming Restistance 2, LBP looks great, Infamous,Valkyria Chronicles and 360 remains strong, really looking forward to Gears 2, Fable 2, aand Star Ocean... Can't wait for the fighting games also, I prefer the Ps3 controller for these the 360 D-pad isn't that good for fighters.. But be happy with what you got if you have both your good, no need to try to bash the other.. Just my thoughts..

Miyamoto once said when asked what was going to be so revolutionary about Nintendo's new system that he wouldn't say until he was good and ready. The reason being that Nintendo was ahead of the curve on what he refused to call hardware gimmicks. He went on to say that nintendo was the first newer system to integrate an analog stick into it's controller, now everyone has two. Nintendo has the first system with a rumble response controller, now everyone's controller has to shake. And true to his own prophecy did the PS3 have a motion sensitive controller when the Wii was revealed and it's controller motion controlled.

The avatars and dashboard are a gimmick, in the same way that Mii's are a gimmick, in the same way that Home is a gimmick. Trying to create a warm social networking feel through the cold lifelessness that is the 360 and PS3.

The new 360 dashboard is yet another gimmick. Something sleek and shiny to turn gamers onto the idea that Microsoft isn't so heartless. Microsoft's entire new direction has been about hip and demographic friendly interfaces because they need to compete with how snuggly people have gotten with Steve Jobs and his idiot boxes.

The 360 dash being pretty doesn't take away from the system (provided that the update to the OS doesn't flat out brick the thing). I'm not entirely a fan of it, but I'm not entirely a Microsoft fan either. But better to be a Microsoft or Nintendo fan than a Sony fan because I really think that if one more developer hammers a nail into the PS3's coffin, a'la Capcom and SquareEnix, then a lot of people who could've been fans of less powerful, but more reliable / enjoyable systems are going to be pissed at their new $600 paperweight which'll go on the shelf right next to their Dreamcast.

this looks cool but only flashed 360s and try to have this while on xbox live but this is pretty cool and the avatars aren't mii's. Avatars don't have balls for hands and single colored shirts stupid pants and they aren't proportionally retarded they look good and xbox 360 kind of have avatars in separate games like rainbow 6

First of all the 360 has plenty of good games, way more than the Wii and PS3. The over a dozen games in my collection is a testiment to that. Not to mention all the arcade games.

Secondly being first isn't as important as being in the black. First place isn't as important as making a profit.

And finally While you will have to use the new dashboard (unless you always keep a game in the tray) you don't have to make an avatar.

@ DPsx7. Microsoft is third place in what? If your talking sales Sony was last with Nintendo leading the pack.

As far as the Dash board is concerned. I like the orignal one better.... for now. So long as we still get themes I am cool.

Dont know why people hating on xbox seeing how it still seems to keep its head above water after so called experts constantly said that ps3 would kick its butt.remember when GTA came out and they claimed that the ps3 would be on top? so until PS3 actually beats xbox i think people need to give MS a little respect for stayin up there so long far as your upcoming games for the PS3 i'm not excited until i see the finished product or they stop delaying it. Like both but xbox is still my most played console.

The xbox 360 is great and even if they did this to show they are being constuctive, at least they are doing something. Nintendos press conference at E3 was so boring the only thing they came out with was wii plus. Not only that xbox is getting a PS3 exclusive, i'm not a fan of it but it shows that companies don't want to stick with the PS3. I'm not saying one is better than the other i am just saying the 360 does not suck
