I wish it wasn't so damn bright though. It looks a lot smoother and uses less CPU so it won't lag as much or at all.

And if you have it set to where people talking comes through your speakers, it will make the game quit when they talk so you can hear them.

As for the dashboard, It's a little hard to see my gamerscore, friends, and messages in the top right hand corner b/c they made it smaller. Also, they could have made the boxes for the categories a little smaller; they cover up a lot of the theme. Lastly, not a fan of the brigt white in-game dashboard. They should have made a black or dark alternate. Enough bitching, like LK said, the in-game dash doesn't take forever to pop-up or navigate anymore. Really liking that.
