In case you're one of those weirdos who doesn't turn on their Xbox first thing in the morning,* the New Xbox Experience update has gone live. The NXE completely alters the look of the Xbox dashboard and adds new features to boot. I messed around with it a bit this morning, creating an Avatar (Because it's mandatory - lame) and setting up the best new feature, Netflix streaming. Applying the update and setting things up took less than ten minutes, athough the Netflix feature requires an additional download and entering a code on the Netflix website from your PC. I'm not at all impressed with the Mii-lite Avatar system, but otherwise the NXE is slick, easy and welcome. I've been waiting so long to stream episodes of Law & Order to my TV!
*Or you're Gary, whose Xbox is currently broken.
