XBox360Me!

21 Nov 2008

Doesn’t quite trip off the tongue the same way that WiiMe does, but with the new XBox 360 Dashboard release you’re forced to have a little avatar, so here’s mine:

Hmmm…. :)

The new Dashboard has plenty of swooshy new graphics, which are cute, but don’t really make a big difference to what you can do. But there is one huge benefit of the new update, which is you can install games onto your XBox 360’s hard disk. We installed Fable II to try it, as Fable II’s always accessing the DVD, and suddenly the noisy black box in the corner was silenced. Running of HD really does show how much of the XBox’s noise is down to its DVD drive.
