Oh hello Mango interface. You are very annoying when I don't have a touch screen.

I don't see the point of this one. Features are cool but, the layout is just everything in a different order.

I think they're trying to draw more attention to it's movie and music store, given that each has it's own page.

Personally I feel it's all overpriced. I'll never buy my games, movies or music from my xbox. It's bullshit. Given there's no physical media publishing costs it should be cheaper, no more fucking expensive.

Erm, yeah, Dashboard. Meh.

I like it more than the previous dashboard.

Not sure if want to turn on Ecksbawks...

It's not bad, Smokes, it looks nice. It's just, the main features that are new, I won't be using.

In terms of how it looks, it's a little pointless is all.

Well, I haven't turned on my 360 in God knows how long, anyway. Not really changing anything there.

So I just found out after I posted this that you can control your X-box with your Windows Phone Mango. Fuck. Yes.

The dashboard is MADE for Kinect.

All of the voice shit is awesome, and it makes my Netflix shit so much better when I'm lounging in bed about to go to sleep. Add-in that I have a Windows Phone, and it's basically like having a remote on my phone.

Unnecessary? Yes.

Convenient? Yes.

A good update if you don't have Kinect? Probably. The way things are set-up makes more sense once you get used to it.

A good update if you have Kinect? Absolutely, it's what you should've been able to do with it from the start.

I honestly think that Microsoft should let us customize how our dashboards look. It kind of irks me how they can just swap things around constantly. It's cool to have updates, but to force people into those updates kind of annoys me, even though it's not a huge inconvenience.

Actually, I just updated a few days ago, and while the update isn't offensive to me in any way, I don't really get anything out of it.
