Isn't there a kids menu option when you log on? To Netflix anyway.

darthv724279d ago

but so far it seems only the wii version actually had the option of choosing when you started the app.

Emilio_Estevez4279d ago

PS3 did too, popped up a few months ago

darthv724279d ago

thanks for the heads up. I need to update my ps3 netflix it seems.

Ben_Grimm4279d ago

Yea, I saw this on PS3, then it went away.

Great option this feature. I just wish Netflix would update their instant stream with better titles more often.

SoundGamer4279d ago

It's still there. Press "select" on your PS3 controller and it will take you to it.

The reason you probably do not see it anymore is likely because you use the main part Netflix the most. It learns your behavior and takes you to what you use most automatically.

Ben_Grimm4279d ago

Excellent, thanks for the tip!

SoundGamer4279d ago

I like the PS3's UI better for Netflix for Kids. *ahem* Not that I watch it or anything. =p

greenpowerz4279d ago

360 wasn't mentioned once in these comments LOL

stuna14278d ago

Yes it was! You just mentioned it! j/k

What I'm finding hard to understand is why are people getting disagrees for asking questions for clarification?

greenpowerz4278d ago

I don't see any relevant questions...There is no clarification needed...The news is announcing very simple info...

A feature didn't exist on XBL, now it does.

vitorizzo4279d ago

Xbox 360 Turns 18: Three Cheers to Live, Halo, and Red Rings

The Xbox 360 launched in North America 18 years ago, and is now officially old enough to buy you a drink in Europe.

Great platform, and many of its games (not bc) still hold up well to this day. Like the PS3, I keep a 360 hooked up for those games you can't play any other way.

isarai156d ago

The last gasp of greatness from XBox, you are missed, except the RROD that was lame, but amazing exclusives until the Kinect dropped.

TheBrainZ156d ago

So many brilliant games. I still have one stored somewhere.

LG_Fox_Brazil155d ago

I really enjoyed my X360, some great exclusives on it. Used to play the shit out ot Blue Dragon and Lost Odyssey, two masterpieces

I remember when Live turned five and they had special edition controllers made and everything. Kind of wished they would do that again for the 20th.

Orchard526d ago

Happy Birthday. OG XBL (and later 360 XBL) really revolutionized online gaming on console.

Crows90526d ago

Never understood the obsession with live...but I was gaming online on PC so not sure too much of what live did that the PlayStation didn't.

Profchaos526d ago

I had a PS2 and it's online experience was fine but it didn't have the same level of polish voice chat never worked for me but I was trying to play from Australia where not many people played PS2 online to the point where many devs simply dropped the online mode from the pal version.
That's not all PS2 games mind you there were plenty that worked perfectly but it was more on the dev and not the platform

During that era I also played a fairly large amount on online PC games and they were undoubtedly better than both systems. PS2 from functionality and Xbox because it was free

Playing my friends original Xbox it was a really polished experience it felt robust yet simple things just worked there was zero config.

Crows90526d ago (Edited 526d ago )

Yeah but the time ps3 came the experience was the same on both based on what I played...not too much online though to be honest. But I do think that the xbox did help bring online into the console space a lot. As well as PC games to consoles.

Profchaos526d ago (Edited 526d ago )

Today would of been the perfect day to drop halo 2 the original bc version free on gwg.... If only

Will they last longer then a year like when Google bought up three game studios and shut them down within a year of purchase.
