Xbox dashboard update out tomorrow

CVG Home ? Xbox ? News Sunday 31-Oct-2010 8:04 PM MS confirms Kinect-enabled update release
The new Xbox 360 dashboard overhaul will be released tomorrow (November 1), Microsoft has confirmed.

This comes just in advance of the release of Natal, for which the dashboard adds compatibility. You'll also notice an aesthetic change in the menus too - menu items and Xbox Guide are set to adopt a sharper, flatter look to accommodate easier browsing with Natal.

Expect a slight change in layout, a new colour scheme and new fonts, too. Get a sneak preview of the update in this video.

function print_article(id) { window.open('/print.php?id=' + id, 'print', 'width=500,height=600,scrollbars=yes,toolbar=no,resizable=no'); } function email_article(id) { window.open('/email.php?id=' + id, 'email', 'width=484,height=420,toolbar=no,resizable=no'); }   Ooooohhhh, I'll be able to party chat and private chat again.

The new layout is good though, looks a little more basic, but some small things have changed for the better.

Good! I can finally join party's. Total waste of time signing up for the beta.Change the friend/achievement notification to match the new white dash!!!May actually turn my xbox on then to have a looksie. Thx for the heads up 8)just in time for my Kinect/Natal 8)Natal? Haven't heard that word for a while.Yeah, I'm gonna be glad to get back to party and private chat but on the flipside, no more good excuse for that one person you always wanna avoid :) I wasn't too keen on the new dash for the first day or so but I love it now. It's a big improvement.Good! I can finally join party's. Total waste of time signing up for the beta.
My thoughts entirely, to me if you're European and you signed up the only difference really was no Party Chat, a few thigs were redesigned, not worth not talking to people in parties for a month at all.Haha, a 360 mags website can't even get kinects name right - shows how seriously it's being taken!

The new dash is just like the old one, but greyer and squarer.

the sound effects are softer, like a fat birds' titsNews | Reviews | Previews | Features | Interviews | Cheats | Hardware | Forums | Competitions | Blogs Top Games: BioShock: Infinite | Assassin's Creed Brotherhood | Call Of Duty: Black Ops | Dead Space 2 | Halo Reach | Tomb Raider: Underworld
