I love it. A lot of interface streamlining in this update and a few nice little features added that are pretty awesome. IE also works very well, it's good enough that I don't mind using it (however the forum buddy on Vgchartz doesn't fit on the screen)


Does smart glass work with the browser?

Also is it possible to still sign up for the beta?


The beta re-opened yesterday. Don't know if it is still open.

https://t.co/GVHctJlq  (perhaps it still works)

Am I the only one who thinks the pre-Kinect dashboard was so much better? This tile stuff is terrible.



"Well certainly with the Xbox 360, we had some challenges at the launch. Once we identified that we took control of it. We wanted to do it right by our customers. Our customers are very important to us." -Larry "Major Nelson" Hryb (10/2013). Note: RRoD was fixed with the Jasper-revision 3 years after the launch of 360

"People don't pay attention to a lot of the details."-Yusuf Mehdi explaining why Xbone DRM scheme would succeed

"Fortunately we have a product for people who aren't able to get some form of connectivity; it's called Xbox 360,”-Don Mattrick

"The region locking of the 3DS wasn't done for profits on games"-MDMAlliance

No. Once you learn the in and outs of the metro dash it's faster to get around.

Wow, nice to hear that they have improved the speed - my major complaint.

I do really, really like how in a way, they give us a new free console every few years.

Plus the favorites is a welcome add.

Sounds all really good, but aren't the people with pictures and video violating the beta terms of service?



 

Really not sure I see any point of Consol over PC's since Kinect, Wii and other alternative ways to play have been abandoned. 

Top 50 'most fun' game list coming soon!

 

Tell me a funny joke!

The Xbox has two dedicated news aps: MSN and the Today one.

Is that what you were looking for?

Sorry dude, the Beta was completly full in less than an hour after it was anounce.  Many people that often get betas didn't get in this time.   I was in the last one, but it was full by the time I learned about it.
