That guide looks awful... such a terrible rip off of the iTunes style.
What were they thinking?

What are you guys smoking? The new interface looks great! The trailer is a bit American though.

@bronze:
MS having been ripping of Apple for years so why would they stop now?!

Although this is aimed more at kids, I'm ashamed to say that I'm quite looking forward to this. Anything that makes me playing xbox more acceptable with the mrs is only a good thing... right?

it's hardly a rip off of mac is it. I think you might mean cover flow which apple bought, they didn't invent it themselves

Nothing to complain about but the cutesy characters, and if there's any customisation then I'll soon change that.

The new dashboard interface could be a complete win if it lets me sort Arcade games based on different criteria including recently played and highest rated (by users).

It will be great to scroll though all of the games as 360 cases as long as it's smooth, quick and responsive.

They now need to make sure that the D-pad gets sorted. I can't believe they've not ditched the original and revamped it - otherwise it's all fantastic.

Now - 160Gb Blu-Ray Elite and Advanced remote motion controller in the box as standard, plus bundled with Viva 2 and Banjo in time for Chrimbo please M$.

If they do this right, and Starwars: The Force Unleased supports it then it's a win for 360 & Wii with MotionPlus.

Looks more like Windows Media Centre than anything Apple have done.
