Unsnapping?

I hate the UI and haven't made any effort to learn how to use it properly.

I absolutely hate the cluttered nonsensical UI of the 360; seeing the xbone would use the same idiocy was one of the reasons i never want this console. How many terabytes was the titanfall update anyway?

It's an interface that 8yr olds can navigate FFS. :lol:

Some people do get melodramatic at times. :shifty:

Must be a sign of old age syndrome. ;)

I wonder if an 8 year old would figure out how to download an arcade game on the 360, its absolutely nonsense. Also, just because i CAN navigate through it doesnt mean i like it. Add 400 more icons and 300 more pages and i still *CAN* navigate, but it doesnt mean i like it.

It's still all slow and chuggy, not to mention completely counterintuitive.

It's not that bad :lol:

Party system needs more work but other than that :-?

@Crunchy - unsnapping, when you have something snapped on the right like friends, voice commands are quickest way to get rid.

Thanks nanner :awe:

I really don't get on with the UI at all. I don't think I've ever actually used the Snap feature on purpose. I'm like a 60 something with a VCR :crazy:

Whilst I don't support the way the XB1 has been launched (clearly needed several more months for the software), at least things like Forza are being advanced with extra (free) content. Maybe by the end of 2015 we'll have the game we should have had all along. :lol:

Looks great this new track!

The detail on this new track is immense. Wanging one if the F1 cars around gets your palms sweaty.

Another 20 tracks like this and Drive Club can kiss my ****. lol

The MCV story first line is is 'Microsoft has upped its game'

How the **** you can construe that as game-upping is beyond me. Microsoft gives up playing its **** game more like.

They have also announced Games with Gold will also be on Xbone, dont know what game as there is hardly a big back catalogue available.
