*Edit* Loads of Kinect crap, voice control, uses windows phone 'metro' look, post achievements to Facebook (at last!!:p)

I just want to see my wallpapers damn it, not just the top half :rolleyes: If it delivers that I'll be happy.

Sorry, but for those too lazy (or drunk ) to read the link, could you summarize the update in your post please?

Ta x
 
I want my themes to work again!
I bought some themes that used to change pictures when you scrolled across the different blades,when the NXE came out you only got one static background. Very annoying!
 
Got a feeling this will be a pig to navigate with a pad cos it's too Kinectified!
 
I wish they would just leave it alone or atleast give us a choice of which one we want to use, because I'm sick of not knowing where everything is everytime they decide to change it.
 
Looks cack just like current one is, PS3 has the best interface imo nice and clean nothing cluttered every were which is what 360 needs to do, or least let you get rid of the blades you dont care about.
 
I think it looks rather nice, the current one is far too 'big' considering how much is on screen at any one time. I just hope they do something about the appalling visual quality of the interface itself (particularly text) at 1080p, the current one is quite bad. Also needs to be quicker to navigate, I find the current one a bit slow with all the swooshy animations.
 
I like the look of that. Wish it was white on black and not the other way around.

One thing I "hate" about the 360 is that iafter a while the scrolling and stuff just get annoying (like said above) so maybe it's better now.

But I will miss my Wastleand theme :(
 
I kind of miss the old Xbox and early 360 days when the console was a bit more 'butch' and didn't have so much childish family friendly **** that it does now.
 
I liked the blades, it was very quick to navigate. Now it looks like the Wii menus since those ridiculous avatars came in to it. I haven't used my xbox in about 3 months so maybe this update will make me switch it on again!
 
I too also miss the old Xbox days of less of a focus on the casual gamer and also the vast amount of exclusives. :(
 
I agree that I wish they'd stop messing with it, just pick a basic style and leave it at that.

I don't mind the PS3 menus, they're relatively simple to navigate. If this is a move closer to their style then I think that may be a good thing.
