Dashboard Update 2010
« on: August 25, 2010, 06:07:19 AM »
Xbox 360 dashboard update coming before Kinect launch
Dashboard update to come before Kinect launch, exact date still to be confirmed

Xbox Live's Ijaz Akram has told GamerZines that this year's Xbox 360 dashboard update will launch "soon before" Kinect, suggesting that Xbox 360 users will have access to the dashboard's new features before November 10th.

"It comes down to user experience," said Akram, who is a part of Xbox Live's London team, talking to us about the future of Xbox Live. "It's about what's right with the right level of community and the right level of engagement to take it forward.

"You'll see that when we launch on November 10th with Kinect and soon before that we'll have a new dashboard update with all the great new features that come as part of Kinect and make Live a really good experience."

However, when asked about a launch date for the dashboard update, Akram told us that Microsoft "haven't confirmed a date as yet".

This year's Xbox 360 dashboard update includes a host of new features, including a Kinect-specific dashboard that lets users navigate menu screens, and fast-forward/rewind films using their hands and voice.

The update is also rumoured to include support for YouTube and email clients.

Kinect launches in the UK on November 10th exclusively for Xbox 360.

I've fixed the link in Luke's post.

It may take a while to load.  Make sure you're signed in with your Windows Live ID.
