[update] New Xbox Dashboard preview now avaiable


Recommended Posts

Heh. And I just saw an advert on E4 showing using voice commands on Bing on the 360 to search for content with the new dashboard. Shame the Xbox can't do that yet :p

I also seen the new Metro dashboard being demostrated on Channel 4. I was quite surprised when I seen it.

I don't get why some people are complaining so much, its a preview. Its not as if this is a final product they set a date and are now past that date, and we all get it sooner or later either way....remember this is the biggest dashboard update since NXE, there's bound to be a few issues to work out, and I'm sure last preview it was at lease a week or 2 from console ID submission to getting the update...

Last couple updates I've previewed were barely a week from sign-up on the connect page.

I can't remember exactly, you could be right, non the less this is a much bigger update, and since we have no date we're expecting it on what's the fuss about.

not really been following this thread, nor have i turned my xbox on since entering the code.

what is the issue?

This preview was announced October 11th and all indications pointed to a "very soon" release. Here we are, nearly a month later, a week removed from eventual console registration, and we get an announcement for an announcement. It's been a slow moving process, hardly "very soon." Perhaps the very soon was for information, not the actual release, but personally, the slowness of communication and progress has been frustrating.

Shouldn't you be playing new games, working, socialising rather than wondering when a dashboard update will be out. One day you will turn on your Xbox and be prompted to update. Until then, why even think about it.

I guess you've never anticipated the release of anything. How sad and unfortunate :(

I'd rather ironically advise people to do these things by spending my day posting anonymously to internet message boards.

Quoted for one of the least thought out posts on this forum...in ages.

He has a point. There's over 100 posts bitching about the fact that it's been a while since people signed up. "When it ships" is far better than just rushing things out and bricking consoles. It's a preview, not a beta, nor an alpha.

Your point is moot and far more ironic than his.

Well, we can almost guarantee the dashboard won't be a november release. Guess i'll pickup MW3 this afternoon to hold over until we get the update.

Also, does anyone know if we will be able to download the wp7 integration app? would be cool to be able to test that as well.

FAQ: WHAT ABOUT THE PREVIEW PROGRAM!?!?!?!!?!??!?
