This is by far and away the biggest change the Xbox has seen since it started and is likely to be the biggest it will ever see. Whilst the bulk of the earlier available services are US specific it’s nice to see that those of use in Europe and elsewhere around the globe won’t have to wait too long to see our console become a true media hub. There’s no official dating on anything past the 6th though we know some will come during the month with other services following early next year.
Stick with TGF over the next couple of days for a full breakdown of the new dashboard as it hits consoles worldwide!
