Dashboard update of the Xbox 360
Posted on 17. Jul, 2008 by Wim Haanstra.
Geez, it’s like I can take a look in the future, isn’t ?
Let me quote myself on this to explain:
Loading times, I know the loading between levels is probably THIS long, just to make sure you don’t get many loading screens on checkpoints, but holy cow, this game takes AGES to load. Why was this better on the first Xbox, where games were just buffered to the harddrive? Why not bring an option like the Playstation (by far a worse machine than the Xbox) has, “copy game to harddriveâ€.
It seems they have listened to my blog post 
(let me have my ego please) and announced a whole bunch of new features for the 360. One of the features they announced was the “copy game to harddrive” feature! Woohoo, would Halo3 finally be playable?
The also redesigned the dashboard itself, which is a relief, because the blade system currently is too complex. Banners everywhere, 20 ways to get to the ‘Game Videos’ section. The images I found on Kotaku are look very sweet!
