New Galaga XBLA :D Sweet!

I love all these games XBLA is getting... scha-weet!

Anyone notice we can't have custom backgrounds now?

And what about the themes we paid for?

You read my mind.

GlaDOS at E3! :D Brilliant!

LOL at South Park! "Coming in 2009..." "Can we please get back to our video games?!". Short and sweet.

Am I the only one who hates the new Dashboard? :( I just don't like the way you interact with it now.

I am kind of indifferent to it... I'll have to wait till i actually use it.

The avatars are... meh I am not really bothered by them. I am sure some will love them though.

In regards to the new dashboard, I was personally thinking when they announced it I hope we have the ability to use the old dashboard, but it is not looking that way. It is definitely going to have to grown on me.

And yep, Portal Still Alive coming to XBLA this fall.

Also in 2009, a South Park Game!!!

I love you Bradas! <3 thanks for the screenie :yes:

also.. the avatars look like a strange cross between a Mii and a character from Home... kind of realistic.. but with a cartoonie look to it.

The Dashboard looks...idk.... interesting I guess... I'm not liking it too much.... too shiny and sanitary IMO

Yeah, same here. I don't like it now, but it may grow on me, as I said. I don't like the avatars, though. Don't see the point, personally. I'd rather just have a gamer picture.

NETFLIX... w00t! I can finally use it :D EDIT: Wow, Live party can watch... that's awesome!

[magik]

WOW @ the NetFlix announcement!!! Looks like I'll probably be subscribing to NetFlix very soon...

[CY:G]

They kind of showed a 2D interface, wiiiiiii, thats all i wanted...

Exclusive Partnership with Netflix. SWEET!

OMFG! that's freaking huge :o

good job MS

Nice at Netflix!

MS reaaaally need to sort their hard drives out now :|

[Ayepecks]

Yeah, this Netflix thing is huge for me. I really hope they can get more titles on there soon as well as some HD titles. It'd make my college life much easier movie-wise... I think Netflix would get a lot of that kind of reaction.

@ Audio's HD comment: why? If you have a little space it shouldn't matter. I'm 90% sure Netflix is streaming. ;)

[Brad.]

OMFG! that's freaking huge :o

good job MS

Sure is!

Eeeeep, MS is doing a fantastic job so far!

[PL_ Veteran]

New Portal! I came!

[CY:G]

WOOO THE ORIGINAL BANJO ON ARCADE!!!!!!!!

Nevermind, i think he was talking about Viva Pinata :(

[morficus]

hhm... I like what they are doing with the XBL community

the "Jump In" slogan actually fits them now :p

[Ayepecks]

Sure is!

Eeeeep, MS is doing a fantastic job so far!

IMO, MS is doing a horrible job so far in terms of games. :(

[magik]

hhm... I like what they are doing with the XBL community

the "Jump In" slogan actually fits them now :p

Yeap, that's definitely true more than ever now. :D

[Pheee]

Right at the end of that segment for new dashboard, that popup was the guide button, so I guess that is displayed when in game, looks mighty fine if you ask me.

[what]

New dashboard is cool.

I'll only use the party feature for group chats.

Avatars look stupid - especially for the new friends list. I just want a list god damn it :p

[Brad.]

Viva Pinata 2 :D Looks really good :p

[Ayepecks]

I'm still waiting on the Bungie announcement... I'm gonna be so mad if there's nothing.

[CY:G]

Aside from what we already knew, i cant see any other AAA titles :(, seems like M$ is going the Wii way... need more hardcore games...
