New Xbox dashboard
Artemicion said: » Consistency in UI is an important thing IMO as it makes things more streamlined and convenient for repeated and practical use. I for one really miss my Xbox 360. Debating if I should buy one this xmas. I'm not saying it runs cold, but it's not AS hot as the old model 360. too many ads. But I really dont care, I don't even login to the dashboard anymore.

I need to get a newer model once I get some money, this old clunky one runs so damn hot and LOUD. As for watching Netflix I have it to where nobody knows what I'm watching and turn off notifications during movie's. I hate when this happens during subtitled anime "Blah blah blah (DING) (Player is online) blah blah." >.> totally messes me up.
Eh. Most people always hate the new dashboard when it comes out, same with when facebook changes. But after about a week no one really cares anymore.

MS at least waits for a few months to change something. Facebook seems to be doing it every god damn day.

My problem with notifications is when I'm playing fifa. Got the ball on the side for a throw in? "Ding Herp is online" FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU Can't see my team! Is gold required for use of Netflix?
I mean, it's worth having gold all the time of course, but I'm just curious... Artemicion said: » Is gold required for use of Netflix?

Guide button -> settings -> preferences -> notifications. Adjust to your needs. Ramuh.Urial said: » Artemicion said: » Is gold required for use of Netflix?

Yeah I think you need gold to do netflix, I tried it without it and it bitched at me. or if I lose connection to the internet it says something about you need to be logged into an xbox live gold enabled account or something?

Okay so if I were to get myself a new Xbox, what are some must have accessories and whatnot?
I know the rechargable battery kit is definitely a must have as I rather not fumble with alkaline batteries every couple of weeks. Also, if I do get some games for online play, a bluetooth is probably mandatory as well as that flimsy headset it comes with won't do justice I'd imagine. Get a kinect.. very fun~

It looks completely HELP I AM TRAPPED IN 2006 PLEASE SEND A TIME MACHINE and the 3 times I've been on it since they did the update last night, I've had to type in my email and password for Netflix. Let me watch the Backyardigans, gd it! I'm not a big fan of the revamp of the layout they did on it. As for the email and password once you type it in that first time it should automatically load it up from then on I haven't had to redo that part. A couple friends of mine said they only had to do it once, too. For some reason our xbawks hates me, so I guess that's it. Just updated netflix and logged in. Remembered all my old netflix acct info from before the update. Xbox hates you because you're taru. /nod Artemicion said: » Okay so if I were to get myself a new Xbox, what are some must have accessories and whatnot?

Plug and play kit is good, I have 3 wired headsets and the wireless one, been debating getting a pair of Triton's as well, an extra controller is always good mine atm is starting to wear that's about it.

XD yea and I think alot of the apps when they first came out asked you if you wanted to let that info be shown or not.

Pardon my ignorance, but what consists of a plug and play kit? Also wireless anything will likely be mandatory as I intend to use this as my hub in the living room which has the sofa/coffee table a good 8+ feet away.

I'm not one of those guys to carry my wireless controller in the bathroom and talk on PT chat. creeps me out. And batteries die in the end(Even the play and charge ones). It's more cost effective to buy wired. Artemicion said: » Cerberus.Draupnir said: » Artemicion said: » Okay so if I were to get myself a new Xbox, what are some must have accessories and whatnot?

It's a rechargeable battery pack and has a wired cord that charges your battery while you still play and once it finishes you can just unplug it and go back to the freedom of wireless Cerberus.Draupnir said: » Artemicion said: » Cerberus.Draupnir said: » Artemicion said: » Okay so if I were to get myself a new Xbox, what are some must have accessories and whatnot?

I use to have the dual battery charge kit and both flipping battery packs decided at the same time they was going to break at the plugin -.-; Cerberus.Draupnir said: » Ramuh.Urial said: » Cerberus.Draupnir said: » Artemicion said: » Okay so if I were to get myself a new Xbox, what are some must have accessories and whatnot?
