It's Sky, 4oD and ITV Player

BBC refuse to make Xbox users pay for the iPlayer

[Niall]

It looks fabulous! Its all Kinect-ified too isn't it?! :amazed:

[Fetch The Bolt Cutters]

kinect is gay

[Niall]

Not when you can bark orders at it for literally anything

[Ramsay]

Looks like the PS3 XMB

[Niall]

It looks nothing like the XMB.

[Sam:)]

IDK why but it also reminds me of XMB.....(even though they don't look alike really)
I see there making all of Microsofts Interfaces the exact same,which isn't bad.

[Stu]

Yeah the whole left to right categories thing will feel like XMB again. Only with more white colours and Kinect gheyness.

[Scarlett.]

Remember this?

[Ramsay]

Reminds me of trying so hard to get all the achivements in Hexic :joker:

[Scarlett.]

Navigating the Xbox dashboard has always been a nightmare. Hopefully they've finally got it right.

I personally hate the XMB, I hate it on the PSP and I hate it one the PS3 :joker:

I like them both. You would want to be a bit simple to get lost browsing either.

The XMB is so dead though. It's the better looking and sounding of the two but it's like stepping into an empty cavern. With the Xbox they shove advertisments, events and content down your face and it always feels live and colourful.

That's how I feel lol, the online stuff is only crammed into on section, so the rest of the sections always look the same :joker:

[Sam:)]

Sony should replace XMB ,It is beautifully simple but it's aged now.

It also seems to take a million gigs of RAM and a full kettle boil to load up the damn thing during a game.

[Scarlett.]

One thing that REALLY pees me off about it though, background downloads/installations are very rare

[Scarlett.]

It's now been annouced as 6th Decemeber, two weeks from now

[Niall]

:amazed:

[Samuel.]

The XMB doesn't look dull when your wallpaper is Amanda Byrnes lying on a bed in lingerie :hmph:

[Niall]

The update's been delayed:

After Microsoft announced several new services would miss the December 6 launch of the Xbox dashboard update, it has revealed that another major component will also miss the planned launch, namely the dashboard update itself. Major Nelson tweeted the news, noting, "the timing for the Xbox 360 dashboard update has been slightly delayed." Concerned citizens will receive a status update "later today."

Given the last minute nature of the delay -- so last minute that it didn't halt this morning's press release announcing the rollout -- we can't yet say for sure whether it's a matter of hours or days.
