There was no customization shown. They were very careful to not show the themes or gamerpics, I'm pretty sure they would have if they were still there. Looks like gamerpics and themes were all a waste of money on the new gray dashboard. The dashboard showed no options. It is going to be mandatory. They would have demoed the options if they were there.

I'm just happy I never bothered to get any gamerpics or themes that weren't free...

Most of the stuff looks like its going to fail.

I abhore that dashboard. I hope that they at least give you an option to disable of all of that crap. It looks like the PS3/PSP interface. The vision toy/make a movie thing was a PS2 thing way back when...

No innovation, absolutely no innovation. What the hell were they thinking?

New dashboard looks horrible but the 8 ppl private chat is cool.

Fable 2, GOW 2, Fallout 3 and Portal: Still alive look incredible cant wait to for them to come out.

The dashboard reminds me of the cover flow from Apple.

that's microsoft for you ... no innovation

I think the Netflix thing might be if you're already a Netflix subscriber. Unless they feel like being nice and giving free rentals...

Highly unlikely.

the guitar hero world tour's recording studio is the best f***ing thing they could do for guitar hero. I've said they needed that ever since guitar hero 1

EDIT: wtf is up with that camera angle on that last movie thing?
"SPOTLIGHT ALERT: Camera angle at the request of M$"

ass whipes

So nothing Halo related, or are there more opportunities for stuff like that later?

CabooseJr · Post by **CabooseJr** » Mon Jul 14, 2008 11:09 am

The Countdown on Bungie.net looks suspicious.
