Nelson talks Xbox Experience at PAX

There’s a movie on GameVee of the Major doing a presentation of Xbox Experience at PAX. There’s plenty of info in there about migrating groups within the Live update, Avatars, and so on. Worth watching.

Xbox Experience launches in November, says the internet.

Don’t think I am bashing, but doesn’t his Mii stand like a girl?

Looks good, but i don’t understand why. Is it just for a facelift?

I’ve just watched this and shonky camera-work aside it actually looks pretty swish.

Pud, the reason they’re doing this is that they asked a UI expert to tell them what they could improve to make the Xbox less intimidating to a more mainstream audience and basically got the reply “well… you need to change pretty much everything”. What they’ve ended up with is a mish-mash of Apple/Nintendo/Web 2.0 stuff which should have been awful but somehow manages to look okay.

Interesting to hear the Major say you can install “pretty much any 360 game”. Which ones can’t you install, I wonder? :-)

I might be reading something into nothing. It might be a standard disclaimer in case someone finds one that won’t work. It could be anything really. I’m just naturally suspicious. :-)
