kinect is pointless cause whatever u do you'll still end up picking up your xbox controller

I hate it. Alot.

Seems to be taking the facebook approach trying to look a bit more basic but modern

It's not too bad, I'm unsure about it, the white parts of it seem to be too bright and hurt my eyes, but apparently there's some way of changing the colour of it.

I love the new dashboard and the overall new look, but I hate how long the boot screen is now. I don't really give a **** about pretty green and purple lines going into the logo, I just want to play a game.

Most likely your tv brightness, mine has a game setting which is preset and it is perfect. i adjust brightness through game menus

i really like it, though i'm pretty ocd about simplicity, so the tidier and brighter the better ;)

I love it. And especially the improved codec for XBL chat. Only took them 4 years.
