Title: Top 10 things to do when you get the New Xbox Experience
Posted: 11/19/2008 2:02:21 AM (PT)
The New Xbox Experience is in the process of being deployed to all Xbox LIVE members, but it will take a few hours for everyone to get the prompt to update to NXE….be patient! In the meantime I thought I would give my Top 10 list of things to do with NXE when you get it later today:
1) Create (or Customize) your Avatar – You can spend as much (or as little) time as you want in the Avatar Editor to personalize your little guy/girl
Bonus: When you are done with #1, be sure to take a Gamer Picture of your Avatar. In the Avatar editor, choose Gamer Picture. You can use the controls to move your avatar around, zoom in and out or even change the background color (press Y)

2) Explore the all new dashboard. (hint: use the trigger and bumpers to quickly scroll up and down or left and right)
3) PAR-TAY! Check out Xbox LIVE Parties and chat with up to seven of your friends. Go to the Friends channel…choose a friend who is online and press Y to get the party started. You can also hit the Xbox 360 Guide button > Party >Start a Party. Once you do that, send off invites to your party (since one does not make a very good party…does it?)
4) Themes. While any themes you work will NXE, check out some of the new themes via My Xbox and select your profile (second slot) and then change theme. Xbox 360, Spectrum, Day and Night are new themes that available as part of your NXE upgrade…check them out.
5) Marketplace on Xbox.com. This new feature lets you search, browse, and purchase games and videos while you are away from your console. You can also perform account management functions like changing your billing information, viewing your purchase history, and downloading items you already own.
6) Netflix – Xbox LIVE Gold Member and you have Netflix? If you are in the US you can stream thousands of videos (some in HD) directly from Netflix to your Xbox 360. Not a member? Sign up for a free trial at Xbox.com/netflix
7) Install to / Play from Hard Drive. With the game in the tray, return to your dashboard. (pressing the guide button then Y works as always) then go to My Xbox. From here press Y, which will bring up a new menu which will allow, among other things the ability to install a game to your hard drive.
Hint: You can still use the Xbox 360 guide while installing a game to keep in touch with your friends or start a Party.

Bonus: Before you do #7, be sure to set up what happens when you turn on your Xbox 360.  My Xbox->System Settings>Console settings. Then choose Start up to to choose Disc, Xbox Dashboard or Windows Media Center. Once you are done there…check the option right below it: Autostart. This tell your Xbox 360 what to do when you insert a game. The choices are enable or disable. I have mine set to disable so I can easily use install to hard drive.

8) Delete Zero Gamerscore games. You can remove any games from your games played list that you have earned no achievements or gamerscore. Press the Xbox 360– guide button, navigate left to the games section and choose Achievements. From here choose the game with zero gamerscore you want to remove and press X (Delete Game History.)

9) Press the Xbox 360 button on your controller to see the all new Guide. The team has added more functionality than the old guide, while making it more responsive. It’s a quick way to check your messages, see who is online or start a party. 
10) Take a look at Community Games in the Games Marketplace. For the first time in the history of console gaming, thousands of games developed by the creative community will be available to the public.
For those that have the new Xbox Experience, what are your favorite new feature(s)?

Title: Sign up for the preview? You're in!
Posted: 11/17/2008 7:15:11 PM (PT)
Instead of adding another 10,000 people to the preview program like we did last week, we've decided to do something a little different: everyone who successfully applied to the preview program (and submitted a valid console ID) will be getting the New Xbox Experience sometime within the next few hours. That’s right…we’re hooking everyone else up with NXE a bit early.  If you signed up and are not prompted, that means you did not enter your console ID properly and you'll have to wait until Wednesday.

Don’t worry, it’s almost here.

Thanks again for your overwhelming interest in the program.

Title: Having Xbox LIVE Connection issues? (Updated)
Posted: 11/14/2008 10:24:00 PM (PT)
In the past few hours, the Xbox Operations Center noticed that a large number of members were disconnected from Xbox LIVE, some more than once.  Our Engineering teams are actively working to determine the root cause of this issue and to prevent it from happening again.  If you are disconnected, you should be able to reconnect after a few minutes.  Thanks for your patience as we work quickly to solve the issue.

Update: I’ve learned that these issues have been resolved. Thanks for your patience.

Update: From reading comments, I see that some folks are still having issues. The Operations center is investigating.

Update: If you are having issues, I suggest you contact support. At this point LIVE members should have no problem connecting and staying connected to LIVE.

Update: We’re noticing a few members are still having issues. We’re investigating. Thanks. Keep an eye on the official Xbox.com status page for updates.
If you are having connection issues, please let post the following:
Issue, Gamertag, XYZ code, your connection type, ISP and your regions. Thanks.
If you are having problems connecting or you are getting discconnected we're looking for additional information.
Email me Major @ Xbox.com with your gamertag AND  your Public IP.
Do NOT post your public ip information here, or I will have to delete it. Just send that to me in Email that I can forward on to my engineers. 
Update: We have enough information now. If we need more we’ll respond via email. thx


Final update: I have been informed by e that these issues have been resolved. You should have no further problems.

Title: New Xbox Experience: Installing NXE
Posted: 11/14/2008 11:00:32 AM (PT)
Since we’re less than a week out from the launch of the New Xbox Experience on November 19th, we have a video that shows you just how quick and easy the install will be. For many of you, the download and install will take just a few minutes and you’ll be back to gaming before you know it.  If you’re in the preview program, feel free to let others know what to expect.
 
Sara at the Gamerscoreblog has a summary of our past NXE vidoes and posts.

Title: NXE Preview: Third (and final) wave
Posted: 11/13/2008 5:13:11 PM (PT)
We did it twice before and we’re going to do it again. We’re adding more people to the NXE Preview Program. This time, over 10,000 more Xbox LIVE members are being added in this third and final stage of the New Xbox Experience Preview Program. If you are chosen, you will receive an email later tonight (be sure to check your spam folder or add msftconn@microsoft.com to you safe list) followed by the update tomorrow (November 14th) afternoon (PT). As before, we’re only pulling names from those that originally signed up (there is no way to sign up if you missed it, sorry) and this selection process will be at random from those that previously filled out the Connect Program Survey from my original post.  Again, this is final wave. All Xbox LIVE members will be getting the New Xbox Experience via Xbox LIVE November 19th.
