It's shithouse bro. Fucking sick of going to my recently played games list only to have it not load for a few mins. I back out then come back in and it pops up. Marketplace chugs too, but downloads are still exeptionally fast for me which is ok but still doesnt balance out.

Haven't really played the console since updating - I can't stand it myself, especially that awful avatar they are forcing on us.

The blades made sense and everything had its place, now it is jumbled all over the place.. plus I don't like the sounds either (I know you can disable them but I want something, just not what they have). A prime case of design over functionality (which I will no doubt be shot down for saying...)

I hate my xbox since they did that huge update. It's laggy, convoluted and childish and I hate it.

yeh I don't like the wii direction they took, but it WAS slick and some of the additions were worth it, like installs.

but now the blades lock up pretty much every time I bring them up, for a good minute at a time too, it drives me fucking insane.
and trying to scroll through friends on the blades is horrible as it tries to load the fucking pics which I don't even want to see.

Yeah well I don't even have the xbox connected to a screen.

The menu locking up is just unacceptable. I was thinking it was just my Xbox...Juz, Hercy and Chaos said it never happened to them when I asked.

I just find the whole interface too annoying to learn.

Yes Installs is fucking great. The rest is horrible. Even setting up an online game and then inviting people makes me near blow a vein in my eyeball.

The only thing that really shits me about it is the speed of the.. store I guess is the section. When you click on new content and then you want to click on an item and it loads everything for that game but the item you want and it takes for ever and it sucks,

I don't mind the avatars, I have blue hair.

I... haven't had any problems at all. In fact, I couldn't go back to the old dash now.

posted about this a while ago, thought it was exetels fault.....play halo and check ya friends list whilst the game is about to start.....1 min later you MIGHT actually be able to start the game at the same time as everyone else since it lags....i've actually been booted out of games cause i've tried to go back to the game screen while it's trying to connect to other users and it freezes for a couple mins......i've always had probs with the 360 dashboard from the beginning, it improved a lot over the last couple of years but since the nxe it's been worse than ever. I've read around a few forums and it's not just aussies that have probs ppl from the uk and other places have been bitching about it for quite a while now and nothings been done about it

It's shit. I've hated NXE since day one.
It has always sucked and it always will. But yeah, the lag right now with the blades is horrendous and unacceptable.

The only good thing is HDD installs, and I'm sure they could have done it in the old dash.

Look, I just designed a dash that works. It only took me two seconds. Give me a high paying designer job MS - I can do a better job than the idiots you have.

I'd prefer to see the boxes working properly and get the shadows as an option in a later patch.

I like NXE, but then I rarely use my XBox anyway. The guide menu locking up shits me to tears though...

What's with how deep they bury playing HD-DVDs in this thing? Maybe I'm just slow, but it took me like 5 minutes to figure out how to play an HD-DVD.

Xbox Live Team Working On Their 360 Dash Speed
By Mike Fahey on June 23, 2009 at 6:30 AM

According to Major Nelson’s latest podcast, the Xbox Live Team is working towards making a harder, better, faster, and indeed stronger Xbox Live Dashboard for the next update later this year.

Some of you have taken issue with the slow speed of the New Xbox Experience, and Major Nelson and the rest of the Xbox Live team have taken notice. In his latest podcast, the Major promises that the next major dash update will see a much faster guide. Just don’t call it a performance enhancement, whatever you do.

“The team has done some really good stuff around making performance enhancements. ‘Performance enhancements’ doesn’t sound right because it sounds like we’re going to give the guide a little blue pill, and we’re not doing that. Whatever we call it (and it’s not going to be called the NNXE), but whatever the next version of the dashboard is called, it’s better with a lot of very cool new features. That update will be out later this year.”

Thank goodness, because if the Xbox Live team had released a dashboard update that was worse in every way, they’d be Vista team, and they keep the two separate for a reason

hopefully it wont suck, i just want it to work properly this time around

I have utmost faith in Microsoft's ability to produce a sub-par interface.

NXE truly is shocking. So much scrolling and scrolling.

Looks ok. Functionality wise it's a fail, even if it's faster.
