does anyone have this prob 'some content is not avail. it will appear auto. when it is avail...' and that thing was the marketplace stuff... i cant go into marketplace and download stuff anymore !!! WHY?? WHY?? WHY!!!
it could be several reasons. 1. being that u have a stable connection. 2. being that u have gold membership. just make sure those are squared away first,if it still doesnt work call ms.
I kinda hate that the update now is setting up the xbox more like the ps3 and has features from the wii. I never hated the 360 and still don't just think they should have made more original ideas...
more like how you can now buy/ rent a movie and invite other people to watch it with you
why dont dey just do wat da ps3 did cause wen u put da disk in it doesnt spin theres just a lazer dat reads it and makes it faster and more hd wait i mean Blue-Ray. and this makes it quieter and the reason da 360 gets hot is cause the disk is spinning and dat causes friction and makes it hot really fast
umm, first of all its that and the not dat and da. second, if you save the disk to your hard drive with the new dash, yes, you have to have the disk in, but the lens reads it while its motionless...
yeah, what a bunch of copy cats.they didnt copy sony though, nxe is the biggest windows media center rip off i have ever seen. microsoft should sue these guys over the blatant copying of technologies.
theyve even incorporated online video and chat technologies not disimilar to msn messenger. microsoft would have a field day in court with these xbox dudes...
no of course not if u install it to ur harddrive u still need to put the cd in but it makes the heat go down and smoothe no laggs and the xbox runs quitly and not so loud so its not that useless how everybody think it is
I dont know why there are so many people bashing the new dash. I dont know about you haters but I spend most of my time actually playing a game instead of sitting in the dash. So to me it really doesnt matter what it looks like cause I am not going to be in it enough to care.
actually the ps3 copied the 360 and the wii first of all with the wii it lets u move the controller around sometimes dumbass and the 360 with the graphics and the 360 has been thinkin of this idea since it has came out so how bout u just stfu climb on the tallest building ever jump off and kaka all over ur moms new dress with ketchup and right nao im really bored im just trying to take up spacePIZZAPIZZAPIZZAPIZZAPIZZAPIZZAPIZZAPIZZAPIZZAPIZZA LOL I USED ALL THE CHARECTER COUNTS WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT
i think when you go on your xbox 360 it will say at the bottom of your screen new soft were update then it will auto makitley update well thats what i saw on you tube they showed it but that miht just be a small test but dont counton it that its true it miht not be true
i'm just hoping the dashboard doesn't lag anymore. i like the idea of easy accessibility, good controls is always a plus, and so is the chat thing, but c'mon, this should've been implemented a long time ago, and only little kids care about things like avatars (which is a large minority on the xbox console)
no one wants to make avatars and shit if u want to do that go fucking play the wii. i only cool thing is the 8 way chats. besides that xbox is fucking gay now
i think it will look cool, but i think its designed for those dumb 6 year olds who shouldnt even be trying to play xbox. the avatar thing seems kinda childish, the new menu navigation thing seems like any little kid can go and find their little viva pinata videos within 15 seconds. at least it still looks cool. i just wish microsoft had though more of the general gamer, instead of the average 6 year old, who plays viva pinata, and my little pony.
Of course it isn't optional, why is everyone complaining anyway, it's a new dashboard.. finally something to replace that heap of shit we have had for like 3 year..
its nt coming on monday. its comin out some time in november. look at inside xbox it says that the update is nt the new xbox experience, it is just contributing to its arrival.
no its a way of interpretating the information. they said the full update is coming out in november, but i thiknk they are coming out with some smaller things tomorrow
because it appeals to the younger audience, which the xbox is not very good at appealing to. it's completely useless as a feature but it gives people less of a reason to buy the wii
i think this update is great, the avatars appeal to the more younger gamers and casual gamers, the avatars are optional, you can still have gamerpics, but personally i think they are a great way of defining youself on xbox live and being individual, I CNT W8 =D
i agree but i would rather have a choice of diferent avatar styles, so these ones can be for the younger crowd while i could have something i would actually like to be my avatar. oooh i know maybe they will have like avatar styles you can download so i can be like a mafia boss or somethiing. that would be soo cool
Actually a lot of people do, they just want to get the Wii players over to the xbox360 so they figured they would make Avatars to make people more curios and for the younger audience too.
if you can't keep the old dashboard i will throw my xbox out of the window for fucks sake why gay avatars?!?@? fucking chinese drawings i thought microsoft was american, so why do they have to imitate the shitty wii?!
lol u got fuckin problems with all the good things like vid sharing parties videos 8 way private chat faster loading less overheating and 8 way chat and ur gettin mad over probably optional avatars get a life
You've got to be a true dumbass to think this new,sleek, easy to navigate and visually appealing dashboard is ugly compared to the shity one we have now
the dashboard as it is is very ugly and clunky and laggy, this eliminates all of that. well, as far as ugly or whatever goes, that's just opinion, but the other 2 are improved
I like the new chatroom feature, I hated talking to one person at a time on one channel. Like this I can talk to all of them at once without any of them feeling left out or pissed because I dropped talking to him/her.
I know the avatars will catch on. Avatars have been around longer than people think. I think they are cool. Can't wait this fall.
errrrr thats shit fuck you microsoft you ruining my xbox the blades were much beter fuck avatars aswell WE DONT NEED THEM i hope we are able to change back to the old dash board
dont lie RNB this is not optional you have to update to this or u cant play online lol, it looks like a wank conbination of home and miis lol!!! EPIC fail microsoft
good lol u got fuckin problems with all the good things like vid sharing parties videos 8 way private chat faster loading less overheating and 8 way chat and ur gettin mad over probably optional avatars get a life
i agree there, but there are some improvements, like more customization. more clothes and colors and hair and stuff. personally id like to see something like a better Rainbow Six Vegas 2 camera thing where you take a picture of your head and it puts it (it a better more cartoony quality) onto your avatar.
Why? You can still use your pics. Everybody HAS to make an avatar as part of the setup, but you can choose to display a gamerpic on your card like normal, and can keep using that pic like you have been. The only time you HAVE to use an avatar is in some of the new games.
You can also use your themes...according to pictures, the themes actually look better on the new dashboard, since they replace all that empty space in the background...you get a clearer look at the theme pic.
For certain games that have frequent loading times (like Soulcalibur IV) HDD installation will be pretty cool. I don't think anybody is going to install every game they own, just the ones they play most frequently and want to speed up.
As long as you keep paying for Live, you can go on it. If you choose not to pay, you'll be dropped to a silver membership, as usual, which basically just means you can't play games online (there's a fewe other things, but they are barely worth mentioning).
He's just using that as an example of a release game to show that the new features apply to all games. If you asked me to name a 360 release title that's probably the first one I'd think of too.
And to Pokemon freak, yes you can still go on Live, the demo kiosk they are using is just not hooked up to the internet. Live is still a big part of the new Xbox setup. This update will not be installed until you connect to Live, obviously.
Perhaps, but Xbox 360 didn't really launch with a great lineup, and so PDZ was probably the most prominent of its launch titles. All the top games came a little later.
i know this is probably a dumb question, but how will i get to get this update? will they just update it automatically or will it be a full download thatll be optionable or what? just curious how itll work
the day when it is released you will get an update, so basically its just a case of turning on your xbox (and also signing into xbox live) then a normal update blade will come up telling you that you need an update. Then it's just a case of waiting for it to download, and then your xbox will restart and you will get this update
Dashboard built into the new Xbox Guide. For everyone who loves the blades interface, it's not going away; they are now built directly in to the new Xbox guide. Every feature and option is available right from the guide. You can even access your full games library at all times. No matter where you are (in dash or in game), immediately call up your games played list and directly launch a game.
to me the dashboard is great the way it is it has the best one from out of the three systerms but i do not like this new dashboard at all i dont mind the new look I DONT LIKE THOSE GAY AVATARS this isnt nintendo keep the dam gamer pictures which you make us pay for!!
Omg did u here u can keep the game on ur Hard drive and share with ur friends dude thts so kool idk y peeps r citisizing it looks kool at the new content is 2
No, you can't, unless you plan never to connect to Live again. There is a menu similar to the old blades that comes up when you use the guide button (even in a game) but it is not quite the same. This update is MANDATORY to use the Live service. Why is that so hard fo folks to understand?
This comment has received too many negative votesshow

And to Pokemon freak, yes you can still go on Live, the demo kiosk they are using is just not hooked up to the internet. Live is still a big part of the new Xbox setup. This update will not be installed until you connect to Live, obviously.

Yes i understand it was an example. But PDZ is awful.
odelay17 3 years ago
Perhaps, but Xbox 360 didn't really launch with a great lineup, and so PDZ was probably the most prominent of its launch titles. All the top games came a little later.

Call of Duty 2 was a launched title

i know this is probably a dumb question, but how will i get to get this update? will they just update it automatically or will it be a full download thatll be optionable or what? just curious how itll work
nateindahood777 3 years ago
the day when it is released you will get an update, so basically its just a case of turning on your xbox (and also signing into xbox live) then a normal update blade will come up telling you that you need an update. Then it's just a case of waiting for it to download, and then your xbox will restart and you will get this update

Dashboard built into the new Xbox Guide. For everyone who loves the blades interface, it's not going away; they are now built directly in to the new Xbox guide. Every feature and option is available right from the guide. You can even access your full games library at all times. No matter where you are (in dash or in game), immediately call up your games played list and directly launch a game.

crazymario3 3 years ago
Can't do that. It is mandatory, like previous dash updates.
jcb231 3 years ago
if you look at the systems dash you can find how to get rid of earlier updates
XC0MB4TXEV0LV3D 3 years ago
Yes, but in the case of this one you aren't going to be able to connect to Live anymore without reloading it.
jcb231 3 years ago
im willing to take the chance
XC0MB4TXEV0LV3D 3 years ago
That's good, because you don't have a choice.
jcb231 3 years ago
its not mandatory, u can still use the old dash if u like it.
RnB12 3 years ago
No, you can't, unless you plan never to connect to Live again. There is a menu similar to the old blades that comes up when you use the guide button (even in a game) but it is not quite the same. This update is MANDATORY to use the Live service. Why is that so hard fo folks to understand?
jcb231 3 years ago
no it isn't microsoft said it was optional.
RnB12 3 years ago
Post a link. This IS NOT optional.
