My Xbox 360 came with NXE interface. I have flashbacks right now, I still have original box somewhere. Skeuomorphic/frutiger aero/glossy designs were top
Over its lifecycle xbox 360 had dirferent dashboards they changed the dashboard in 2008 to give a new thing for the console also to have better integration with windows vista and 7 they changed again in 2011-2012 to streamline windows 8 metro interface
There’s technically two different kinds of metro. Metro’s looks were slightly changed overtime but very faintly. Slightly different menu colors in Xbox guide (I think with only select highlight, including in other menus) and the dashboard itself looking a bit different in its older builds.
No, it’s actually a backport for Windows 2000. The original Xbox and Xbox 360 (yes, even the latest metro dashboard) all ran a modified version of Windows 2000. It was so far from 2000 that you’d have no idea, but it was technically still a modification of it.
Made it slow as hell they were doing way too much probably to try to push the sales of the Xbox one to make people think of Xbox 360 and then think of it being slow and needing a refresh.
the 2011 Metro was actually nice. the 2012 one is what ruined it. the old one looked like proper Metro (nice thin fonts, proper live tiles like Quickplay, which resembled WP7's People tile, etc.). the current one looks like a 9yr old's recreation of Metro
I really appreciate you making this but just gonna throw out there that someone like me looking for a nostalgia trip video like this wants to hear the menu sounds as well not this song. Again, love you nonetheless.

0:50 the best dashboard. Even Windows Vista and Windows 7 had aplications using this style. It was clean and sleek. Nice animations.
Blades and Metro gave me a lot of Nostalgia, good video Martin!

it does

It’s not that bad, and it’s pretty tame all things considered; my problem lies with how generic it is.
@@TheJittering You're being too polite about it.

NXE was the best! MS at their UI peak, with Windows Vista, Live Messenger (pre-2009) etc. before horrible giveup Metro. Had an NXE Zephyr
Xbox 360 NXE is based on Windows Vista as it includes Windows Media Center.
Media Center was included during the Blades era but it wasn't fully implemented until NXE
...which means many gamers used it.

@@razzledev the style is based on vista media center
No its not xbox 360 have his own os@@razzledev
Blades, NXE and Kinect had the best dashboards. The Windows 8 one that's been on 360 ever since 2011 ruined it

Kinect is basically Metroified NXE
It's funny, blades and metro are my favorites lol. I hated NXE when it came out, aside from it's pop-up menus, and kinect ruined the menus.

I think I might be the only one who prefers NXE to Kinect lol
you forgot the first metro dashboard version. it came out in 2011 and is based on a windows 8 beta build and not the rtm windows 8
Do you have a video link?
Metro dashboard isn’t compatible in Xenia due to requiring more RAM in the Xbox 360 which Xenia can’t handle
No wonder it ran like ass on the 360 lmao
Always glad theres other people that enjoy seeing this too
NXE was the best UI ever.
I agree will be going back to it on my rgh just because nostalgia and to play legit
Thanks i have it
I still have a xbox 360 and still use it! this video is really cool
Same
Same! I have the metro dashboard but the xbox is modded so it has Freestyle 3 and that looks like the NXE
@@kernel378 but you cannot play via original xbl :3
@@nerdziak24 Yeah but I’m not a fan of multiplayer games. And I have the kinect
The last one is the worst. But it's still.better then the modern Xbox dashboard. But blades is my favorite.
"Blades" is a my childhood
I really appreciate you making this but just gonna throw out there that someone like me looking for a nostalgia trip video like this wants to hear the menu sounds as well not this song. Again, love you nonetheless.
There must be an option to change dashboards on original software :(
I want NXE instead of Metro, but I bought my 360 in 2018 ^^
U can but u have to have jtag installed to perform that

@@nerdziak24 i think if u use a sort of type of hacks to not let the players in Xbox Live play yes but i think that no
@@nerdziak24 oh and u can do that too with rgh
time for the updated version with the new bland dashboard
I still have my Xbox 360 Elite 💚 ✌🏻😌🇩🇪
That loud lyric enduced background music
Just… no
I think the 360 have more dynamics and ain’t looking so minimalist like the One and Series X dashboards :/
This brings back memories of good old times... :'-)
Xbox 360 blades reminds me of Windows Vista and Windows 7 Aero themes a little bit. I like that.
enough to make a man cry
Why does everyone forget the 2012 updated metro dashboard?
Wdym? The one shown in the video is the updated metro dashboard. Do you mean they don't mention it specifically?
@@CliffhangerProduction there were 2 metro dashboards and they looked slightly different
@@tophgif and the Metro shown is the 2012 one... "the one everyone always forgets"
does gamelist work?
Imo the current Xbox 360 dashboard is the worst one out of them all. I much prefer the look of the Blades, NXE and the NXE kinect dashboard.
The metro one is the one my xbox 360 is on and i love it
Both are great. If I had to pick, I give the slight edge to Xbox 360.
I still got 2008 nxe dashboard on my old xbox 360
Nxe dashboard had a best dashboard ever
We searched for our childhood memories
i grew up with metro
I have a 360 sitting about but I’m too lazy to get a power cable lol
The second one was the best👍👍
I was so sad when the dashboard changed in 2012
NXE was the best
I have the x360 with metro dash
Nxe and nxe kinect are best
metro is the best
Kinect & blade r the best
Sad to see it becoming progressively less aesthetic and less straightforward
The new one doesn't look good imo. The old ones look way cooler.
2011 was peak Metro. 2012 ruined it alongside Windows 8
I still have an Xbox 360(Xbox 360 E 2013)
I still have a 360 with blades
Windows 13 🪟
nxe was in my opinion the best
I love the Xbox 360
blades best dashboard ever..
i was thinking of buying an xbox 360 for playing some cool games like mw 2005 and fh1 but then i realized i don’t have a useable tv in my room
mw 2005 is kinda rare on xbox 360 since it released so early on in the system's life, i'd recommend just pirating it on pc honestly
a CRT TV with just 480i would work perfectly with the 360
@@codezero7981 i have one but it's in my grandma house
nostalgia
classics 👌
playstation next 👍
nothing changes
The x260 first was... huuuh not confortable
The old dashboard is better
kinect = natal :D
