Totally agree, the new xbox home page is complete wank.
Much prefer the 360 with the avatar etc, feels more like a games console. The new version doesnt give you that same feeling. If anything theyve taken away the 'fun' parts of the home page and stuck crap you would expect to see on a pc, laptop and windows mobile.

Called down a bit now! 
Settings was in the "Games and Apps" tab, I couldn't work out to switch between my snapped tab and main screen, it just seems you have to go through more menus to get to where you wanted to go. Kinect voice control works very well and the controller is easily the best I've ever used.
Opened my special legends pack in Fifa with "a high chance of receiving a legend card" and got Zamora, really!

Forza 5 (Actually most next gen games) seem to have more lens flare than a J.J.Abrams film.

Still haven't bothered. Any game i'd want, i already have for the 360, and I know someone will want to shoot me down here, but I'm not exactly blown away by any graphics I've seen so far. Certainly not worth shelling out half a grand for imo.

May sound stupid but do you have it laying down or standing up? Mine wouldn't read disks, turns out it need to lay down to work . . .
Anyone actually bought one yet? add Reecemac88 Noone I know has one! Got like 2 friends on it.

Really not a fan of Forza 5. Loved the old games but this one, I just don't like it.

Can't disagree with this, this is the least "next gen" feeling "next gen" I've ever experienced. Should come alive in the next 12months or so as the Developers start pushing a bit more.

forza 5 is good allround game problem being with lack of other titles its full of tits who wouldnt normally buy the game , im all for a bit rubbings racing etc but its getting pretty bad when you cant make a full race with out someone totally wiping you out, worst is when get better of someone round a corner pull up beside them on the straight and they then turn into you to stop you getting passed

Didn't bother trying it online but sounds no different from all the other Forza games.

Youll get used to being rammed if you play the career mode, the ai are bad for it, they dont brake like the previous forzas. Its all most impossible to finish the first lap in first place with a clean lap.

I also dont think we'll get that 'next gen' console feeling like we did with previous consoles. The graphics will obviously get better but will we ever see a next gen console that will blow the previous console away like we used to? Probably not imo.

Yeah, thats coz you're not playing against AI as such. Other peoples drivaters instead.

Same. I'll get one when they're < £100 and have decent games.
