I hope they do a feature where you can mate avatars and see what their offspring might look like.

The Conan O'Brien channel is coming to Xbox Live in the Spring of 2009.

You heard it here first.

Dear MS,

I've been a loyal fan of your company for a while now. All that I ask for is to have the ability to group and tag friends. This means having "Tom (from work)" instead of ".:.65JkKiller32.:." and having him grouped under "IRL"

As long as it doesn't become like XP and interrupt me every 5 seconds to update. But regular updates are USUALLY good for any type of service to have.

Good thing it doesn't take but a minute to do them.

Off topic, seeing those avatars makes me wonder when the fuck are we gonna get new NORMAL clothes added to the avatar creator? Sure they've added stuff but its horrid I tell you, horrid!

I'm not really excited for Primetime, but netflix movie sharing can't hurt :D And i wonder what else MS is planning hehe

Can someone explain what exactly the netflix movie sharing will be? Will I just be able to select the movies on a friend's instant queue rather than going online and putting it on mine?

You're probably going to have to be in a party with the person who has netflix and that person will quicklaunch netflix and you will all watch the movie as its streaming, im assuming

That's kinda cool, if you're one who likes to talk with someone during movies I guess.

Get rid of the Goddamn spotlight channel! And lump the video and game marketplace into a single marketplace channel...also give me immediate access to my friends!

KTHXBAI!

No kidding. Do we really need a Spotlight, Inside Xbox, AND Events channel? Seriously, does ANYONE look at the Events channel? The default should be My Xbox or Friends.

Here's to hoping we can remove the Spotlight channel or at least change the default startup channel to My Xbox.

I hate turning my system on to see a bunch of ads.

That's how the NXE looked at E3 08. That theme no longer exists.

Honestly, I'm skeptical of what updates would bring. With NXE, 80% of the selectable items are just ads anyway. If they update it, it'll probably be to ad even more ads.

Hey alright! But is it really possible that the way they set up XBL before was making it impossible for them to update it on the reg? Are they seriously admitting that the system that they created to update something they call a "community" is poor at doing so? That's pretty weaksauce, Microsoft.
