All of MS' best stuff has been reminding me of the Zune team
Remind me of Zune Originals:
Dunno, very curious what CBOAT his point was for pointing out the obvious. I don't want to discredit him, his leaks are great. But the last just seemed to me like he was trying to scare people away.
Playing with the ui for awhile does not equal recommending buying a $500 system to any and everyone. Something is up.
Look at that aliasing on the wires on the upper left.
Because that's the only problem with that screenshot
Anybody know why he stopped with all the info leaks? I know he is banned but he can still play offline right?
He is sleeping.
From having a windows phone, this is what annoys me about 'theming' your tiles. Certain tiles don't follow it and you end up with a blue tile in a sea of red.
Or Microsoft bribe him with some free games lolHe is sleeping.
WHY?
Cause he was awake all night testing things and posting updates on Twitter, that's why. Let's cut this guy a break already. Dude's been through a lot.
So when I say “Xbox, show me my stuff,” it matches the voice, but also my relative size in the room. My son can walk in and give the same command, and it will match the voice and his size and bring up his content. If he does so and tries to play an M-rated game and his account is locked down, he won’t be able to play.
All the recent positive reactions to UI demos should be a proof that kinect is an important part of the experience, and one on which MS would bet to convince people to buy their product. Without it, you basically have the same ergonomy as the 360 OS.
Metro is so bad, it's a bunch of ugly boxes, I don't know how people like it.

The voice features are neat and snapping apps seems like it would be less of a hassle than picking up your smartphone for the same functions but once the games started I could never get over playing inferior software as a trade. (ports not exclusives naturally)
How many people will really use snapping and heavy voice navigation past the first week of ownership? It reminds me of Siri on iphone. It seems really neat and it's fun for a while then it gets old and you never use it again. Unfortunately, once you get back to a singular focus you realize what you traded for that week of "magic" features was a generation of lesser core experiences.
I hope MS invests heavily in first party and exclusive content this generation. Things coded to the metal and lacking nothing. (Like Forza)
Actually, I use Siri for Weather, Maps, and NFL scores on a daily basis. It's much quicker than typing it in. Also, if I don't know how to spell a certain places name, siri usually knows.
I feel like once I get used to Kinect navigation(and if it works consistently, I won't likely want to move 20 places on screen to get where I want to go. If I can just say "Xbox go to indie game, ______".

man this console is a monster, too bad for the res issues, but those 720 screens look glorious. 1080 for games and this thing would've been godlike.
I dont know, the CPU is good enough, loads of RAM but the GPUs are disappointments compared to the XBOX, 360 and even the PS3. Lets not forget that the 7800 GTX wasnt even announced when the RSX was detailed at E3 05. Then again the Xenos wasn't exactly a beast but just elegantly designed, excluding the eDRAM it wasn't all that in raw power.man this console is a monster, too bad for the res issues, but those 720 screens look glorious. 1080 for games and this thing would've been godlike.
Did this really need a new thread? Wow. Anything to have a dig at MS. It's getting pretty lame now.

What happened to all the rumors from "insiders" of doom and gloom for the Xbox OS and such? Pure bullshit?
What? I'm assuming you posted in the wrong thread...
I know people will just call me fanboyish......but the new UI just seems really cluttered to me. I've always like my XMB because of how simple it is, and it looks like Sony is keeping that basic feel, but the more I see the XBone UI, I just can't seem to like the tile format.
I don't know, maybe I'm just being nitpicky. The UI has some awesome features, just from an aesthetic standpoint, not my cup of tea.
Sony is using tiles though.
Both dashes have a similar look to them.

Does anyone know if we can keep our current gamerpicture? If possible I'd like to keep my brute chieftain as my gamerpic. New ones look neat though, way better than what the Xbox 360 offered us.
The 360 looks a lot smoother on those wires.Look at that aliasing on the wires on the upper left.
