The New Xbox Experience

Posted by CivilWar Fangirl

Yesterday, Xbox Live released it's new dashboard, called "the new Xbox experience". Jeremy managed to get in on the new experience before me through a preview he signed up for (which he didn't mention to me until it was too late. Nice, eh? "Oh, by the way, Mare, I might be getting in on the new dash experience early...". Thanks, dear ;) ).

For those of you unfamiliar with the Xbox Live dashboard, it's the home screen of the Xbox and it has different tabs. The original dash was alright but it had some faults. As for the new dash board, Jeremy and I both agree that it is AWESOME! I checked it out last night for a few minutes last night and I like the way things are organized and it is much easier to navigate around than the previous dash was. We now have things like party chat where up to eight people can chat at once as well as play games. One of the coolest things about the new experience? THE AVATARS! These avatars are very similar to the Mii's on the Nintendo Wii. Designing my avatar was a lot of fun.

Check them out to the right! They'll update automatically as we change our clothes.

Yeah, I decided I needed to change my clothes! ;)

We're finally starting to move at work but I'm still going to see if I can get one finale glance at Colm ;). I hope anyway...

Crappy weather, eh?? :(
