You tend to use the main UI to browse your XBOX and the marketplace when you have time and wants to be inspired and find new demos, videos etc. Everything looks nice and much more clean.
However, the "new guide menu" will act as your quick way to access everything. Much faster than the old blade menu.
One of the real cool features is that you can install an entire game on your hard drive. It took 8-10 min. to install Fallout 3. It sure speeds things up and I'm sure I'll install my top 5 most played games.

Another really awesome feature is that you put things in your download queue from your computer using your browser. When you come home and start up your XBOX it will start downloading.
However, it seems their servers are experiencing some hard times. It can't always retrieve information from XBOX live.

View profile »Some pages are still getting errors, probably due to ongoing upgrades. Overall, VERY SATISFIED with the way the GRAPHICALLY organized the categories.
I'm curious to see how they expand your avatar "action figure" on the network community. I'm sure it goes without saying, that A LOT of the end result were influenced by PS3's HOME (which, by the way, still hasn't arrived), & the 'cuteness' from the Wii "action figures".
BTW: Did NE1 else get an error, when they tried to download the demo game of LEFT 4 DEAD?

No error here. But I downloaded the demo maybe a week or so ago, not during one of the seaonal updates. That's most likely what caused your error, overloaded servers trying desperately to serve EVERY Xbox 360 that was online at the time.
