New Dashboard Update - 01/11/10

So what does everyone think of it then? Oh and while I think of it, does anyone know how you sign up for the Xbox Live Preview Program or has it ended?

I've not seen it yet, any chance of screen shot.

I was aware of it coming weeks ago as one of the guys on my friends list was involved in the beta testing.

I wont get chance to download it till this afternoon, so will pass comment then.

What do you think

Re: New Dashboard Update - 01/11/10

It grows on you - I certainly didn't like it at first.
I took part in the preview program so have had it for a number of weeks now but it's just a way to launch games for me so to be honest it doesn't really matter how it looks!

Re: New Dashboard Update - 01/11/10

It's a lot smoother for me. I've had to turn off the sound effects though, they were getting annoying, especially one that kept going off even when I wasn't doing anything.

Re: New Dashboard Update - 01/11/10

I've had it for weeks and really like the changes.

I also managed to get a shot on Kinect yesterday and the new dashboard was partly changed so it works better with it.

Given that the final version of the Dashboard update has been released, the preview programme has obviously ended

To sign up to future preview programmes, keep an eye on the various gaming news sites & on Major Nelson's blog.
