Video: Xbox Down, New Xbox Experience On Its Way In November
If you had not noticed already Xbox Live is, and will continue to be, down all day today for maintenance. While your experience today with the Xbox may be slightly less than stellar, the new Xbox experience is shaping up to be a nice update to the normally drab dashboard.
The sad thing is, most of the real juicy details are completely unattainable (side effect of the maintenance), so you kids are just going to have to be patient and wait until tomorrow to get the "inside scoop".
I've included a video scavenged from their developers blog. It covers the bulk of the avatar creation system, something I'm sure that I will have to pry myself away from.
When the site is back, be sure to check out the New Xbox Experience page. It has all sorts of interesting details on the update coming this November.

I just got my X-Box 360 last Saturday due to the price drop and finally saving. I went 'WTF' last night when I got disconnected from X-Box Live but then remembered the announcement.
Luckily for me, I managed to get the Bioshock Demo fully downloaded before I got kicked off Live.
Yeah, Zune Marketplace is down, too. :(
Yup...definitely not letting my 360 update to this version of the dashboard...I don't like it at all. The huge squares totally obscure any kind of background you put in. Is it too much to ask that they let you choose to keep the current dashboard style? More options is NEVER a bad thing.
