have you ever had a positive opinion in the last five years that you felt like sharing with the class?

Cool, sony had done something like that a while ago

Now all that remains is for Nintendo to do the same, but apparently the Switch will not have themes anytime soon.

No, actually this is a third-party theme, Truant Pixel had to do it themselves because Sony has no respect for their back-catalog

Yeah man, I was going to say that. The PS2 throwback is really really sweet.

Hmm I didn’t know there were Xbox themes

Bagel Le Stinky · May 14, 2021

Also, is it on Xbox one too?

Why bother? With all those boxes that the UI has all over the damn place, you'll barely be able to fucking see anything.

The Blades UI was the best. Had everything in neat categories, was colorful, and most importantly of all: it didn't have advertisements.

Surely you must have more to your life than looking at my comment history? They're called opinions. Just like bungholes, everyone's got one and yours always stinks.

Bring back the 360 Blades UI you cowards! I still wouldn't buy a Series X/S, but do it anyway.

cope
original xbox ui is far superior
even if blades was the best 360 ui it was still a downgrade from the original xbox ui

Blades Dashboard?

I had a 360, but I never saw this menu. It looks... very useful, actually.
I could definitely do without that 2005 look on the sides, though. It doesn't need a makeover, so much as a fresh coat of paint.

Keep the curves, change the angles on the tab-like bits, change the font, maybe curve the text to match what it's on. Change the colors to look just a little sharper, but don't overdo it. Keep the shadows, keep the sound effects.
The animation looks quite nice, but I wonder if making the menu contents not disappear during transitions would look better.

The Blades will forever be the best Xbox UI in terms of functionality and speed. No pointless gimmicks, easy to maneuver and very responsive. Unlike the dashboards to follow that were overly flashy and looked like they never left the concept stage.

The dream for me would be for a Retroarch blades UI, with each blade a RA Core Playlist

Yea, the blades 360 UI was MS before they got all ad happy. It was sleek nippy and clutter free

It looks damn cool.

Should have implemented the original sounds though.

I took a couple of minutes out of my day to research your body of work before saying something against you. I do not consider this to be a waste of time. Contrarily, I think making an effort to understand people better is a good thing.

I must say, I'm more than a little disappointed that your insult game has not evolved beyond "bunghole" in so many years, though. Maybe talk like an adult next time you crawl out of whatever hole you've sprung from? You aren't 14 anymore.

Have a nice day.

Sony: Imma pretend I didn't see that.

But seriously, this is really great. Hopefully, the PS5 gets theme support later in its lifecycle. I loved the 25th anniversary theme as well as the PS2 legacy theme on PS4. Hopefully we get similar themes for the PS5.
