The New Xbox Experience—which we just gave a stellar review—will not only stream Netflix movies. It will be streaming Netflix movies in HD. Whaaa? Nobody else does that! Well, maybe they don't. But Engadget confirmed that when NXE hits on November 19th, 300 HD movies will be available to stream from Netflix (as opposed to just the movie 300). That's obviously not every movie in the Netflix digital collection, but it's a start. Seeing as ...

The New Xbox Experience is ready to go live soon as part of the Xbox fall update, and after getting some quality face time with the UI and it's new features, I'm pretty impressed. The update addresses the core Xbox software on two levels: most notable is that the design of the UI received a complete overhaul, (mostly) eschewing the blades for a more immersive, intuitive, Media Center-like experience. Secondly, it adds new functionality, allowing ...

I'm now certain that this holiday season will be dominated by the Xbox 360. The NXE, Netflix, Gears of War 2, Mirror's Edge, CoD:World at War and Left 4 Dead to name a few reasons... If only Little Big Planet would make it to the 360 too.

If you've ...

Microsoft has launched a site all about the New Xbox Experience which gives you a feel for what it'll be like in motion by simulating the new dashboard. It also has some videos of new features in addition to the avatar creation one we already saw, like Parties, deeper social networking and more community content. I'm pretty excited about it. Too bad the site doesn't mention a date, though Major Nelson swears it won't be ...
