OMG all I want is a dashboard that isn't slow as ****. The one now takes for ever to come up. it should be lighting quick like when you press start in a game and that comes up quick. it should be that quick.

- Netfix

- more control over who can see what on your friends list

- seperate played games/achievements list for XBLA games (those trials are annoying)

A smoother dashboard, and the ability to set your own custom theme for each blade, instead of jsut being able to set one custom picture for al four blades. Maybe some more dashboard trims, and idk what else. More video codec support..

All I want is a faster dashboard, not this one that takes like for ever to load, and being able to play with the stuff that I download without having to be online, seriously that gets on my nerves.

I hope they fix the issue that prevents people who are 17 from downloading unrated or rated M content. It's ridiculous when you can't download a Katamari demo and your 17.

I dissagre with 2 of your choices.You DO NOT NEED a internet browser on a console.Just walk a few feet and youll be at a device which is much easier to use for internet.(by device I mean computer)Also the 360 can already play mp3.Just hook it up lol

What i would like is:

An integrated Clan Blade. I dont see why we dont already have somthing like this already Make another blade thats just specifically for clans where you can create your clanname and clantag and have a sperate friends list for your members. And it should take your claname and put into any game with Clan support.

Chat with at LEAST 4 people, if i had this option i so would have bought that Final Fantasy Game that would have been fun.

Extend the length of voice messages and txt messages. Alot of people on my list don't really keep up with alot of game related news and i have taken it upon myself to start messaging everyone on my list and give them big news, Such as the Halo 3 map packs being free and that whole gamerscore cheater nerfing It would be nice if i didnt have to speed talk thru the voice message to get it all in there sometimes. Also it would be great if you could send a video message also.. that would rule.

Thats all i really want besides FASTER LOADING!

Originals won't get updated, that required the oringal script of the Xbox game to be changed and has nothing to do with firmware.....

I do agree with more people in privrate chat, I would also like to be able to custimize my dashboard more as well as speed it up!

  • Ability to play MP3 or iPod songs

It already can if you download the optional media update, unless your songs are from itunes in which case you are screwed cause itunes has a rights protection on their music downloads.

Achievements in Originals are never going to happen. Its extra unnecessary work. Though I must say the rest I would definitly want to happen. I hate playing xbox games because of the fact that you cant talk to your friends or anything of that sort, And most definitly an upgraded private chat would definitly work great. There are just soo many times especially on COD4 that I would want to hear my teammates only and be able to carry on a convo instead of having some fool interrupt it with some smart remark.

We should be able to see the Gamer Pics or Themes we want to download before we download them. That is seriously the worst way to possibly make money. I know I don't have to buy them but I want to so I wish at least that I could know what I'm buying.

I know - it's cluttered. Why not move every advertisment to the Marketplace? I don't need to see Rock Band DLC info if I don't even have the game.

Yes to all, especially the dashboard. I think it's way too cumbersome. It's like 4 inputs to send a friend a message.

Um yea i totally agree there. XBL Silver account ares the only ones that should have ADS. I pay 50 a year i shouldn't be subjected to that garbage. The want us to buy pretty themes and whatnot but clutter them up with ads when we do.

I also hate that INSIDE Xbox thing... that needs to go away.. I have zero use for that.

It would be nice to be able to customize your dash board, have a screen shot for each dash, rearrange where the selections are. Fewer imputs and more accessible to its features. An internet browser could be handy I suppose, you can hook up a keyboard to the 360, I'm not sure about a mouse though.

Clan support would be very handy, make it more sociable, you could create your own blogs and the like, really develop your gamertag and profile.

1. 6 person private chat

2.faster dashboard times

3. the ability to Delete ONLY arcade trials.

and they said something about fixing the resolution's and more.;)

I could not find the news article but if someone finds it please link it

I'm surprised I've never heard anyone bring this up before, (I apologize if someone has), but I really want to be able to use My Xbox Mic to hold a conversation with one of my contacts on Windows Live Messenger. I thought it was really cool when they put the messenger into the Xbox, but without the ability to talk to my non-Xbox contacts with the mic, what's the point? (BTW, I know you can hook up a USB keyboard to the Xbox, but that would look like crap, be clunky as all hell, and I don't feel I should have to.

Man, IMAGINE original XBOX Achievements, They would STILL be selling more original xbox games if they would of done this from the start.

The lack of achievments for xbox originals, and you cant be logged in at the same time really sucks. I wouldn't mind faster loading, and possibly just some more features, but in reality its awesome as it is.

The denied access from downloading certian things because of your age is a joke. I made a seperate account for downloading demos and trailers that I cant on my actual profile. And once its downloaded I can just sign out of my fake account and play it on my actual one. It's the most useless thing xbox has done. It needs to be take off.

Being able to transfer achievment points. My account is corrupt and I cant upgrade to an adult account. Meaning the only way for me to ever download adult demos and vids is to make a new account, which means bringing my 29,500 points to a wopping 0.

[QUOTE="Aaron89"]A dedicated pornography channel which can stream movies for MS Points. No child accounts allowed.blue_tape
1. That'd be expensive! 2. Just stream it from your PC.

But it's more of a hassle (believe it or not). Imagine streaming it in HD for 200 points/30 minutes. This'll be MS' real money-maker. :P

Might as well post a proper list, seeing is how I should contribute to the thread:

  • Improved guide performance (or redesign)
    • Having the guide slide in, then display information is slow and inefficient
  • "Games Library" to load up fast; and only once
    • Why, everytime I check my Games Library, does it have to take upto 10 seconds for my mere 22 games (and the console hasn't even been turned off!)? Do it once, cache it, and that's it.
  • More codec/file support, more specifically, .mkv support
    • In an era of High Definition, that should already be integrated.
  • Multiple Person Private Chat
    • For upto 4 people
  • Ability to fast forward/rewind music (whether streamed/from HDD)
    • My old iPod Mini can do it, why not the Xbox 360?
  • Internet Speed Test to XBL servers
    • Can finally get an accurate reading of connection speed and other information. Data collected can be used in games to decide best hosts and such
  • Disable Dashboard ads/shortcuts
    • Although the Dashboard is very intuitive and well-designed, the ads/shortcuts clutter the display
    • At the very least, Gold Members should have the option
      • panel1.dashboard._visible = false; (copy and paste it MS, you bums)
  • Web Browser
    • Full HTML support, and preferrably Flash as well
  • Universal Clan System
    • If you're in a clan, a blade will be added to the Dashboard (next to "Games")
    • Shows list of members and member positions - with also an updatable bulletin which can be viewed through the Dashboard or Xbox.com
    • Calendar feature to show events/matches

It's extensive, but if MS implements all of those features - PSN is going doooown.

Have you watched any of the Major's Minute segments on Inside Xbox? He has absolutely zero dashboard lag. That's what I want.

he's bound to have zero lag on a pre-recorded video thats only 60 secs and timed. plus he is on a lan at microsoft so it wont even need to go on the net as the servers will be there for live on they lan/wan imagine if they wasnt. welcome to majors minite and the first 57 seconds are the dashboard trying to load haha the his time runs out
