That is a long beta. I can't remember the others being for so long.

Queasy4955d ago

Little more than a month. I'm in so I'm not going to complain.

darkequitus4955d ago (Edited 4955d ago )

I have tried it on my secondary 360 obviously offline. So, it will be good to try ESPN3 out.

Queasy4955d ago

I love ESPN3. A bad storm knocked out my DirecTV signal right after the Penn State - Alabama game started. I fired up my Xbox 360 and connected to ESPN3 via PlayOn and was able to watch what I normally would have missed.

Queasy4955d ago

Must be Penn St. fans disagreeing with me. :P

Blaze9294955d ago

I just hope it's a lot faster than this current NXE. This slowness really annoys me so I'm hoping that's one major focus that was set in place for this update.

MorganX4955d ago

I always though NXEs speed was it's biggest feature. What's slow for you? I'm at 1080p and have never had a problem. Just curious.

JustSomeLogic4955d ago

. . .oh, sorry, this is an Xbox update. My bad. So they'll be ADDING features then, sweet

Dr Face Doctor4955d ago

Maybe they'll remove the "Other OS" feature, or block third party controllers from working! D:

Wait...

Blacktric4955d ago

Isn't it sweet to watch two trolls mating with each other?

Queasy4955d ago

It's rolling out sometime today. Not available right at this moment.

EnzoAmata4955d ago (Edited 4955d ago )

I'm signed up and I'm gonna do a video review of it when I get it today. If you guys have anything you would like to know about it then let me know via Twitter.

Paradise Lost4955d ago

Im eager to try it out, hopefully it's better than the current dashboard.
But as i always say, BRING BACK THE BLADES!

EnzoAmata4955d ago

I'm only had the 360 since the new slim model so I don't remember the blade days. I'm interested in this new update from what I've seen online it seems to be faster than the current one, hopefully this is the case when in game too.

Rybakov4955d ago

i wouldn't mind blades again be better with kinect anyway
just get rid of the espn i don't wanna see that on my dashbored

Wikkid6664955d ago (Edited 4955d ago )

No blades... same as NXE. Just slightly different. The angle is gone so it's a bit flatter. Xbox Guide completely revamped. and yes, the boot screen is pretty cool now too.

Tunerboy87324955d ago

Im looking forward to watching espn on my 360 hopefully it will be in HD and the zune music sounds good aswell.I hope its not like last.fm where it picks and chooses what artist it wants to play hope this time i'll be able to listen to that one artist.

You forgot to add "thank God" at the end of the headline.

tomr29922511d ago

Indeed... Praise the Lord!

V0MIT_M0NSTER2511d ago

So glad that they won't mess with Banjo anymore.

-Foxtrot2510d ago

So you wouldn't want a proper Banjo-Threeie, Jade Empire or Kameo 2...really?

AZRoboto2510d ago

Or Crimson Skies. That was the shiz

FallenAngel19842511d ago

It's a shame we can't get another Banjo-Kazooie game

-Foxtrot2510d ago

Literally one that's called Banjo-Threeie and they start the game with Kazooie waking up in distress telling Banjo of a hardly nightmare while recapping Nuts and Bolts.

PhoenixUp2511d ago

Microsoft never could maintain a longrunning decent 3D platformers series of their own

AZRoboto2510d ago

I don't think "longrunning" is really necessary... Isn't Blinx the only one that got a sequel?

darthv722510d ago

Blinx needs to return if at least to show up Bubsy.

ninsigma2510d ago

Not sure if it was Xbox only back in the day but I'd love a current gen jet set radio!

Paytaa2510d ago

Jet Set Radio Future was only on Xbox. Fantastic game. Even better than Jet Set Radio for the Dreamcast in my opinion. Such a good soundtrack too

ninsigma2510d ago

Game was beast and deserves to come back on current gen. And hell yeah plus one for that soundtrack!

Review: Table Top Racing: World Tour (Xbox One) by The Gamerscore Whores

Without a doubt, one of our highlights from EGX Rezzed 2016 was Table Top Racing. It was almost a classic love tale…”As soon as we locked eyes… (enter mushy crap here…)” – We think you get the picture. It just reminded us of a time where gaming was much less complicated and way more colourful, however at the time the game was only due to be released on the PS4… That’s not a bad thing. It just mean’t that being my primary console of choice is Xbox One, we wouldn’t get to play this any time soon as the majority of my games and friends reside in the Microsoft ecosystem – so when we got word this was getting a release on Xbox One, we immediately put our hands up and said “Yes, Please!”.
