kiekko Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 your not ripping the disc to the harddrive it's supposed to cut down on load times and hardware faliure by not using the fan and processor as much wich means it will run cooler and quiter.

No1 Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 "Another feature is the ability to install an entire game disc onto the Xbox 360's hard drive, which will decrease loading times. The disc for the installed game must still be present in the drive for verification." So I can install say Halo 3, go trade it in/sell it, and then can get another game disc (buy a cheaper one/rent/borrow from friend) in the future if I ever decide to play it again and it'll work? Some how I doubt this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiekko Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 Are you asking if you can sell Halo 3, then buy it again? Why would you doubt that and how does that have anything to do with the new feature. The new feature is purely to speed up loading times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No1 Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 That is not what I am asking. DO YOU NEED THE SPECIFIC DISC YOU INSTALLED THE GAME ONTO YOUR HD, OR CAN YOU USE ANY DISC? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Violator Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 Canada left out of Xbox's 'new experience' David Wylie , Canwest News Service Published: Tuesday, November 18, 2008 When millions of Xbox 360 users connect to the Internet Wednesday they'll have the option to give their consoles an extreme makeover. Microsoft has branded it the "new experience.'' Unfortunately, the full experience will only be available in the U.S. In Canada, gamers will have to settle for a sleek redesign. The new look affects mainly the console's dashboard menu - which is the portal into loading games, chatting with friends and changing settings. The former text-heavy look has been overhauled in favour of a much more visual presentation of the menu options. Still, the new menu system feels comfortable and true to its predecessor. Xbox has also taken a page from Nintendo's playbook, adding realistic avatars that can be customized to look like the player - or, as has been popular on Nintendo's Wii, modelled to resemble famous characters, such as Batman, Darth Vader or Michael Jackson. Players will also be able to organize "parties'' where they can invite other people, represented by their created character, to chat and view photos that are stored on the console. And it seems Microsoft is reaching out for the larger demographic - captured by Nintendo - by pushing the console as an entertainment hub, rather than just a video game device. "With the New Xbox Experience, we will reach the next generation of Xbox owners, 25 million and beyond,'' said Don Mattrick, senior vice president for the Interactive Entertainment Business at Microsoft Corp., in a news release. It's a big improvement, but Canadians won't be getting the crown jewel of the update: access to Netflix, which American Xbox owners can use to instantly watch more than 12,000 feature films and television shows. "The New Xbox Experience offers more online entertainment from one remote than you can find from any device that connects to the television,'' Xbox says in a news release, adding it offers "more video on demand content than any U.S. cable provider.'' There are no plans to extend Netflix to Canada. Still, films are available for rent or purchase through the entertainment console. And Canada will be getting feature films from Magnolia Pictures, known best for films such as The World's Fastest Indian, The Host, Enron: The Smartest Guys in the Room and Ong-Bak: The Thai Warrior. In the future, Xbox has promised to deliver a much-talked about feature called Primetime, which "for the first time in video game history,'' says Microsoft, allows people to play game shows through Xbox Live "with real hosts, fresh content and prizes just like the games seen on TV.'' As a celebration for the new release of the much-anticipated update, Xbox is giving away this week more than one million Microsoft Points - which is the currency used to buy online games, add-ons and movies - worth about $16,000 Cdn. http://www.canada.com/topics/technology/ga....html?id=969977 Apparently it's just netflix so no biggie.

Violator Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 I didn't even care if there were any movie addition. I never bought any of the movies or DL them. Im just wanting a new change in my boring dashboard. Can you change the skin in the dashboard? Like a theme? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
