I know Andy's got it, I got it, anyone else? What are your impressions of it?
I like the clean look, it's not bad. The blades are still there if you use the Home button, and they're actually better. We'll have to do a party just to see what the hell it is. There's even IM, which could be good or bad...
The Mii's are alright, but one can't help but to compare them to Nintendo. Nintendo did better with being able to move the eyes and what not, but MS has the clothes going for it. Now you can't change the color of your shirt, but you feel like you have more options... As far as moving eyes and other facial features, I'm guessing MS didn't want a bunch of penis avatars. I also enjoyed taking pictures for my gamercard. I guess that's only natural as Becci and I actually go out and take pictures on the weekends... I only wish I could save more pictures, one for the private picture, one for public... Oh well...

I have it now, too.
It's ok, it has a great look upon it. Just to touch upon the UI for a moment, it bears little resemblence to the PS3's, which has been an annoying topic on many websites. If anything MS ripped off Apple's cover flow.
Anyway, back on track. Yes yes, nice clean look, easier to use, I guess. User friendly (new users are the target audience here) and all that jazz, but I don't see why they had to ridd us all of the former blades? Shame.

I'd agree, the blades were easy to follow. If you couldn't figure it out, you probably wouldn't figure out how to play the games...
