Jimboxy Posted November 21, 2008 Posted November 21, 2008 Oh yeah, cheers dude the other one is my girlfriend avatar. She isn't always that angry..
retroed Posted November 21, 2008 Posted November 21, 2008 There's some pics of the Premium themes over at NeoGAF, you'll need to search the thread as they aren't all on that page. Some of them look pretty good.
hinn888 Posted November 21, 2008 Posted November 21, 2008 Theyre pretty cool, i havnt seen them on the marketplace, are they out?
retroed Posted November 21, 2008 Posted November 21, 2008 The Gears 2 and a couple others were when i had a look on weds.
Oliath Posted November 21, 2008 Author Posted November 21, 2008 I am starting to warm to this now. Had a bit more of a fiddle with it all last night. I still use the blade more than anything though but l do like the new look over all and i love the party system... last night really showed its strength as i could talk to some homo's i was planning to play a game with and re-arrange some shit. I gotta change my background or somethng though. I am just not happy with my theme at the moment. I want that Gears one illdog was talking about that shows different gears objects behind your friends.

hinn888 Posted November 21, 2008 Posted November 21, 2008 there 250 points each so not too bad, and appaz we have 4 premium themese already just like really basic ones. But its rly bad they dnt have previews on the marketplace i think. Im tempted to get the halo wars one coz its bright n looks epic, but i dnt like halo wars... I probs get ninja balde
hinn888 Posted November 22, 2008 Posted November 22, 2008 oh i download that one, i didnt realise it was a premium one tho, off to change theme i go.
HandsomeDead Posted November 23, 2008 Posted November 23, 2008 there 250 points each so not too bad, Fuck that. That's like 1 1/2 Rock Band songs!
Hendo Posted November 23, 2008 Posted November 23, 2008 If the different backgrounds in the Friends bar are the main selling point for the Premium themes then I don't see the point, as the new Friends list is much less user-friendly than the old way, so I'm finding myself only using the Guide button for stuff like messages and who's on, etc. Mind you, the good stuff in NXE has more than outnumbered the bad stuff.
illdog Posted November 24, 2008 Posted November 24, 2008 Forza 2 takes 5 mins to load races sometimes so thought id install it but it wont cus the disc is dirty Damn! Ive had the same with FIFA 09. Damn!
David Posted November 24, 2008 Posted November 24, 2008 My Banjo Kazooie 3 doesn't work when I install it - it freezes as soon as I get to play the game. I try to drive or jump out the trolley, and it freezes. Damn!
Oliath Posted November 24, 2008 Author Posted November 24, 2008 Yeah some games don't work when installed and some have reduced performance. Not sure if you have tried Halo3 since the update, but it actually advises against installing it to the HD. What does this mean?? Well basically that unless there are clear guidelines on what games run better and what run worse you will never know if you are recieving a performance hit. I am also getting REALLY frustrated with the new slowness of the blade. Its the one issue i really wanted fixed up more than anything else. Its the one bit of the interface that you use the most and they had almost got it working nicely and now its back to a very frustrating square one again. It can't be just me that is experiencing it can it? Stuff like... press the xbox button during a game to read a message or send an invite and it LOCKS UP for ages.
Sly Reflex Posted November 24, 2008 Posted November 24, 2008 I experiance that. I told you (or some other guys) it would be back to being slow once everyone had the dash.
hinn888 Posted November 24, 2008 Posted November 24, 2008 a good one to download apparently is mirrors edge its 5.7Gb And the elevator loading time is halfed and no mig game loading either (That really breaks the flow of the game i think)
retroed Posted November 24, 2008 Posted November 24, 2008 I've got 10 games installed on mine! A bunch of my latest games, plus some golden oldies that I mean to go back to.
Jimboxy Posted November 24, 2008 Posted November 24, 2008 i don't think many of us have it, and the ones that do probably haven't got room for a 4 dvd install, but Lost Odyssey is meant to be one of the best games to put on the HD. It halves the battle loading time (down to a few seconds) and no need for disc swaps, looking at about 20gigs for the whole thing though
