DrunknMunky Veteran Posted October 20, 2010 Veteran Share Posted October 20, 2010 XBL Silver is now XBL Free? :p http://www.xbox-scene.com/xbox1data/sep/EklZVAEFAEMSNmccik.php Free is the magic keyword to catch people's attention. Doesn't matter what it is, if you say something is free people will usually take it. I guess this is their strategy to increase XBL numbers Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/946832-xboxcom-website-update/page/3/#findComment-593287326 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayepecks Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 I'm being extremely nitpicky here, but they need to increase the quality of the Xbox logo at the top left of the screen. You'd think the logo of your product wouldn't be low-quality compared to the rest of your Web site.

+Mystic MVC Posted October 21, 2010 MVC Share Posted October 21, 2010 Going to take a little bit to get used the different color scheme but overall the site is just plain fast. I was able to send a message to somebody through my gamer profile in half the time it used to take.

jasonon Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 This update was long needed no doubt. I like the UI changes how they match the metro style UI that Microsoft is pushing.

oceanmotion Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 Interesting change on the new website. When you sign up for an Xbox Live account, your NOT allowed to create your own gamertag, it just makes up one for you. Guess that's a good way to stop people sitting on usernames and make them buy an Xbox to get the one they want along with having numerous new accounts that people won't realise has just chosen them a random name they don't like to boost the numbers!

oceanmotion Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 Looking at my previous post, here is why they have done it and you get one free gamertag change. New accounts only. The FREE GamerTag change is ONLY for new accounts. The reason for this is that in the new account creation flow, the system will assign you a random GamerTag. This will enable you to create an account super fast and get online in no time. However, since you did not get to choose your own GamerTag, you will be awarded ONE Free Gamertag change, which you can use to change your GamerTag later on.
