Evolution of NXE
« on: November 01, 2010, 05:03:21 AM »
What do you guys think of the Kinect update for the dashboard?

I personally haven't been home yet to download/check it out, but I've googled around a bit and it seems pretty sweet.

I hate it, why must M$ try to fix something that was not broke? I mean the espn3 add is great, and the netflix/zune updates are good, but why mess with the menu? these new sounds when you move the curser, and that bright ass white is rediculous. I have a 55" LED tv. dont know if you have seen LED tv's much, but the whites are extreamly bright.

I spend alot of time on the dashboard, but this bright white menu is nuts. this must be corrected.

I searched for "Rapid" for "Fire" and for "Controller" and got NO RESULTS for any of them.

Still waiting on UPS to get mt Xbox back to me (hopefully replaced, one I sent got E74, 1 ring and 3 rings in the space of about ten minutes), but all the friends I've spoken to have said they like the update. I'll post again once I get a chance to use the dashboard (hopefully later today)

i guess its just the LED tv, but that bright ass whit box that pops up everytime I hit the guide button kills me, it lights up the whole room, no more sneaking a game in while the wife is sleeping.

i agree with matt the white is blinding and it doesnt go with the tactical premium theme i use. it does seem a lil faster going in and out of guide and through menus. the lil "magical ferry" sounds when u move menus is annoying. they should've left well enough alone imo

to fix or possibly ease the super bright whiteness, go to console settings, display, refrence levels, and select EXPERT. It should put a darker tint on it which should help or ease the pain of your eyes ;)
