    I don't use the Xbox yet, but I will at Christmas. I saw the pictures of the dashboard on the first page, and they don't look THAT bad to me. I guess if they moved in some weird directions it'd be pretty bad, but I don't know if they do.

    Guys if we're going to be having console wars in here I'll have to stock up on diapers and baby oil. Opinions are like butts, etc. No need to act like children.

    Anyway, I like the new UI. I don't have anything to compare it to (i.e. Xbox's old dashboard) as I have a PS3 and not an Xbox, but the update looks like it's been made to match the Metro UI of Windows 8, which I am a big fan of. Minimalism is kind of hit or miss sometimes, though.

    Minimalism I usually like. I just really don't like the shapes or layout of it at all, or even the background colour (please tell me that's changeable?). Just none of it sits right with me at all.
    I really don't get what was so wrong with the old dashboard that means they had to change it completely. I love that bright green, slightly childish theme it had going. It will be sad when it goes.

    Yeah, I do find it a little odd that they would use a completely white background, if only from an energy conservation standpoint, and that most people seem to prefer a dark background. I know white/silver/green is Xbox's trademark color scheme, sort of, but it seems like they've been shifting to black lately, at least in their hardware.

    Yes, that's exactly what I mean.
