netflix is not available world wide... and that was one of the big things that microsoft were hyping. so pretty much this update is useless for us not living in America.

Don't know if anyone else has expierenced this, but I downloaded Fallout 3 to my hard drive yesterday, played for a few hours, went to work. When I got home I played Gears2 without any problems. When I went to play Fallout 3 today everything loaded perfectly and right before it kicks over to allow me to start playing the screen goes black and freezes. It did this 3x. I deleted it off my hard drive but it is still doing it. I also tested to see if other games would work and they do. If no one has any idea that's cool, just seeing if anyone has a solution or experienced the same thing.

if you deleted it off your harddrive, you shouldn't have any problems, unless something is wrong with your disc as far as i know. however, if there is something wrong with NXE that makes certain games unplayable after a period of time, we've got a big problem

I randomly get kicked out of parties, my friends do too. We haven't been able to find a logical explanation. Also, I've had problems with my mic cutting out for several minutes at a time. IDK if that's a result of the NXE or if it's just coincidence; I mean it is the factory headset.

i immediately downloaded NBA Live 09 and Fallout 3 to my HD and started to play fallout 3. with half an hour in the game, a GLITCH came up so i turned off my console. 30 mins later i turned it on again, BUT THIS TIME THE LIGHT IN THE RING WAS ON BUT MY TV SAID THERE'S NO SIGNAL. it's been like this for a day now, i've tried unplugging the cords, so DOES ANYONE HAS AN IDEA OF WHAT I SHOULD DO OR SHOULD I SEND IT TO MICROSOFT?

after NXE installed itself on my xbox, when it came back on i had no sound, now i have to unplug my harddrive and plug it back in real quick for it to work...this does the trick...but i have to do it ever single time i want to play, it really becomes a pain in the ass! now is this because of nxe or is it because of a faulty xbox console, i've only had it about 2 months now, but everything has been smooth until now. the sound problem just occured after i got the new nxe...whi ch isn't really even that great compared to the other layout to be honest...wish you could have an option on which one you could use!

My main complaint would have to be the avatars. There really isn't too much to choose from when it comes to customization. I'm already seeing clones out there. I really don't understand why you can't change the color of the clothes and the limited variety. Oh yeah, I also don't like how it automatically starts you on the "Spotlight" screen. I want to start on "My Xbox" screen. If anyone knows how to do that, I would greatly appreciate it.

I don't know, I have played over 30 hours and it has never frozen or glitched on me. And it loads up like it is functioning perfectly until it kicks over to allow me to control my character..

nxe is like a carwreck...it's really horrible...and we are going to just have to wait in traffic until they fix it...hopefully it will be soon. it really begs to question what peole were thinking over at gamestop...they already have a winning formula ... why change it? at least give people the option of keeping the trustworthy original. this nxe is more garbage than the job charlie weiss is doing at notre dame, it is worse than the Lions and the Bengals combined, it works and runs like Greg Oden's real age whichi is about fifty years old. If chuck norris' had an xbox, he would give nxe a liu kang bicycle kick into last week, take a dump on it then wipe his ass with whoever made nxe and say, you are a drain on society.

thank you

They should've definitely added in a setting as to what section you want it to open to; I for one do not like being pelted with ads that I can't turn off every time I turn on the console or go to the dash, considering I paid for that, pay for Xbox Live, etc. Totally freaking lame, avatars are useless, the whole UI is a big pile of garbage. Seriously MS, WINDOWS is better than this trash, at least my PC doesn't try and sell me crap every time I turn it on.

So true. Makes it feel like it's for children now. It's those avatars that kinda ruin it 4 me, and those little carnival like sounds everything makes. Everything else is fine though.

Hey, how do I check my NAT type with the NXE?

It used to be closed, but I got a new router, and it's not showing my NAT... Anyone know?

Could I check it with a game?

My main complaint is the backgrounds. I've got my pretty Gears 2 background now, but all my old backgrounds that I probably spent 5 or 10 on are now 100% ugly and worthless. I feel like I should be reimbursed some how, at least give me another new background to replace all my cool old ones :(

If you haven't found out how to change your theme yet, it's under your profile now.

So, my friend "list" freezes my Xbox (it's not really a list anymore) and my favorite theme is ruined.  Thanks Microsoft!

i feel like i've been ripped off of my old themes and gamerpics that are pretty much useless now. i also don't like starting on the spotlight page with a whole bunch of gay ads. look if i'm paying 50 a year for xbox live which doesn't even provide dedicated servers or anything to make playing games online better then i should be treated like a god. i mean come on ps3 has all the same stuff for free! and home will be better cuz its not stupid and childish. look m$ you'll never have the kid market they will be owned by nintendo forever be happy with the customers you have and please them not piss them off!!!

NXE is great and the installing to HDD is awesome, F3 runs so much faster now. Avatars are well done and more optoins to come soon. One weird thing though is that now before signing in the profile, I have to enter my Live  passcode twice in a row, whereas the old dash only asked me once. Is this a bug or what?

Does anybody know how to create a new profile on the new interface? I cannot find anywhere a tab or an option that lets you create new profiles, I can only find how to edit your current profile/avatar, anyone know where I need to go?

Unfortunately this is mostly true... although Netflix has said they plan to focus more on their streaming in the future and claim they will have the licensing deals with Sony fixed soon. Regardless, as of now it's not worth signing up if you just want to use it to stream to the Xbox. Netflix is a great service though, so if you want to use it for DVD rental I highly recommend it. The few movies/TV shows/documentaries I can stream to the 360 right now are just a bonus to my membership. I was expecting and hoping for more from the streaming though.

I installed NCAA 08 (football) to the hard drive and sometimes while teams are lining up before a play the game slows down. But the slow down doesn't last into the actual play, just them lining up. It also doesn't happen every time, only once in awhile during certain games.

My only real complaint is the avatars. Not enough customization options, can't change colors of clothing, and the whole avatar thing seems a little childish. Nonetheless, I made one because I like to be 'hip'...Lmao. Well, it's also bulkier and more useless crap then the original. And, I'm not used to it yet, so it's kind of hard to navigate. Overall, it's alright...but it leaves alot to be desired.

How about this:

I downloaded NXE and it installed. Then it rebooted and BOOYA 3 red rings. I'm sure it's probably a coincidence but i thought it was worth mentioning. What timing. Mine froze a few times too. It is a launch console that has been fixed once already. I went out and grabbed an Elite. My old one is barely within the free fix window so I guess I'll have an extra Xbox. I wasn't too mad since mine is almost 3 years old now. It was bound to fail (again) sometime. It's sad that many of us, myself included, have just accepted that these things will break. If the PS3 would have better games I would maybe play mine.

Need the option to hide the kiddie Avatar thing and way to much advertising. The only thing I do like is the option to Install your games to the hard-drive. I hope the PS3 don't make us use Home like Microsoft is with this childish Avatar thing that Nintendo started.

I don't understand why people say they've been ripped off because their old themes and backgrounds don't work and that they should be reimbursed.

 If you bought an old TV for your Xbox and then a new Xbox came out that didn't work on your old TV would you expect to be reimbursed then?

 The NXE is more to date technology so of course some of the older stuff won't work well with it. If you bought extra themes when you knew NXE was on the way, you only have yourself to blame.

 When you say "too many reports" - as this update is worldwide and there must be a hell of a lot of owners out there with NXE I assume you've seen several thousand reports by people saying the same as you?

OK, it was not a thousand of reports, but Just in my country (Brazil), I got known of more than 10 cases in just one day !!

It is not usual to 10 consoles been hit with 3RL in just a day.

 I repeat, I know it should be a coincidence, because 3rl should be a hardware problem, and the NXE is just software. But it IS happening around the world. I really hope it just a coincidence, because i have two other concoles, but for now, i will wait a bit more to install the NXE on them.

 ps: I liked the NXE, it is great. A bit childsh, it is true, but i liked it.

 How many Xbox owners are there in Brazil? If you've got tens of thousands, then 10 reports is hardly significant.

Don't know if anyone else has expierenced this, but I downloaded Fallout 3 to my hard drive yesterday, played for a few hours, went to work. When I got home I played Gears2 without any problems. When I went to play Fallout 3 today everything loaded perfectly and right before it kicks over to allow me to start playing the screen goes black and freezes. It did this 3x. I deleted it off my hard drive but it is still doing it. I also tested to see if other games would work and they do. If no one has any idea that's cool, just seeing if anyone has a solution or experienced the same thing.Transoceanic7

those that say it takes the manliness out of the console... if it really does.... why are you still creating the avatars anyway.
