Leaked images show a new 360 Dashboard update.
What started out to be a confession of a parent gamer posted on Kotaku, could actually show the new dashboard interface which I presume will be arriving at some point towards the end of this year. The images clearly feature a new Xbox 360 Dashboard which appears to be the new Kinect dashboard that was unveiled not to long ago at E3.
While the the images show vast changes in comparison to the current Xbox Dashboard, you are able to see that this new interface was designed with Kinect in-mind and will most probably be a compulsory update for all users even if they don’t own Kinect sensor. The new Xbox interface also has a certain likeness to that of the Window Phone 7 operating system which would mean a unified interface between both platforms which could allow for seamless gaming integration between both platforms.

Hopefully not, these family features seem interesting. Good to see M$ trying out new ways to restrict age rated content.

Re: Leaked images show a new 360 Dashboard update.
I tend to let my 9 year old play up to cert 15's provided I have had a go first and checked the content. I let this method slip with Assassins creed 2 and it wasn't until I heard the word vagina in the opening half hour of the game when he was playing that I decied this is perhaps not for him, its a shame that games dont come with an optional "beep" setting cause lets face threre are a hell of a lot of good games rated 15. More parental optins from M$ are welcome with me
Re: Leaked images show a new 360 Dashboard update.
No issues there Steve as you know how the gaming land lies and would have a very good idea whats going to be suitable or not. 15 cert games generally arent too bad anyway
My prob is with the parents who take their 10 year old kids into Game, get handed a copy of MW2, look at it really nonplussed, dont give a toss about the 18 cert on the front and buy it for them and the drongo behind the counter at Game not challenging the parent in the slightest - they would have to if alcohol was involved....
I do think that it would help if more games had built in parental controls that bleeped language and toned down or removed gore

Re: Leaked images show a new 360 Dashboard update.
i ask kids i work with whether they are gays who play with a ps3 or a real man who have an xbox. its interesting that most of them play mw2 and gears for example. gears freaked me out a wee bit on a few scenes so would imagine that some of them are a wee bity damaged in their heeds now.

OP updated with new images guys, looks like this is on it's way. Gotta say I'm not a huge fan of the new styling.

Re: Leaked images show a new 360 Dashboard update.
looks like a bit of a step back in terms of styling, I like the way the current menu pages slope off into the distance, dont seem to do that on the new one

I don't mind it too much as I don't spend that much time on the dashboard
