Over the years Microsoft has been able to improve upon the Xbox console and add features that gamers love and find useful. With the Xbox 360 users can play their games, access their favorite music, and download their favorite video files with no problems.
But keeping up with other consoles (mainly the Nintendo Wii) is hard and can be quite cutthroat. Lately we have seen many companies slash their prices and increase hard drive space in order to bring in more gamers. In order to survive you have to keep up with the changing times and new features all the time.
Microsoft understands this and they have created a “New Xbox Experience” or NXE for short. With this new updates you are able to create your own personal Avatar in which you can truly make it look like you. You are able to customize their facial features, what they are wearing, and even add makeup to those pale skins!
The menu screen is faster and looks great! But we have saved the best feature for last. Microsoft and Netflix have created a contract together. Now Netflix has provided Xbox 360 users with more then 300 titles in HD. They have now become the first console to offer Netflix streaming.
