Xbox 360 NXE Dashboard (2.0.8498.0) 

I wish Microsoft could push out one last update for the Xbox 360 that'd allow you to change the dashboard to the one you like.

the looks, the sounds, the colors, the features, everything is perfect. this will forever be THE Xbox dashboard for me

They should have stuck with this dashboard as it's fast to use and looks better

Man i remember being a kid and being so excited for this new ui. The fact that we could make avatars was mind blowing to me even though i had wii

This UI is way better than Xbox One and Xbox Series X in my opinion.

I prefer this over the Blades dashboard, but this was definitely very clunky. However, it's still my favorite since it's the one I used the most back when I played the 360, so many good memories of going around the dashboard while playing Gears 2 and Halo 3: ODST

god damn i'm gonna die from nostalgia

I have very vague memories of fall 2009, white Xbox 360, and this dashboard with Dirt 2 and Forza Motorsport 3.

I'm happy someone uploaded a very in depth view of the NXE dashboard. I wish it was in 1080p, but this is great nonetheless. I still hate that Microsoft didn't just continue work on this version, because it fit the style of the 360 so perfectly. Now they can't even make a dashboard that doesn't require a damn manual to operate. The current Xbox One dashboard is a disaster.

I love the sound effects for this dashboard.

This dashboard brings back a lot of memories. I first had the Xbox 360 back in 2008.

THOSE SOUND EFFECTS OMG

This is what I grew up with. I feel right at home. :)

So much nostalgia... I was stuck with this dashboard for like 3 years since I didn't have internet at the time, but still amazing memories

My heart can’t take this level of nostalgia

0:48 imagine buying an Xbox and only playing games rated C

This was the dash when I got my first Xbox in 09, so many memories on this

i never grew up on blades, so I don't remember it, I grew up on this and it was iconic. The startup, the dashboard, the color scheme, this takes me back

Blades were simple, everyone knew where everything was. It looked more like it was for the Original XBox and was made with the idea of gaming. NXE was bit more complex, but still good. It looked nice. Now, we have some AdWare of a shit that has too many features packed in for a console, like do we need Bing on this? Or Netflix?

I’m crying I’m going to miss this console so much love the dashboard

7:31 This one video has the power to invoke nostalgia and great memories. While also being the perfect synopsis of the Fruitger Aero Aesthetic. Makes me emotional every time.

this makes me crave freestyle dash even more now

I remember watching that intro video as a kid and just knowing I was gunna be a part of something special

Oh my god the ok sound effect sounds just like the discord notification sound

I honestly love this dashboard, I mean this combined with the old startup and the perfect sounds makes for a good system, I just wish they didn't update this to add the nxe 2.0 with the horrible new intro, And of course the modern dashboard with all the ads, God even thinking about it makes me fucking pissed

Best dash imo. It has a ton of style, is much more "social" than the other dashes (grouping your friends Avatars together and visually showing them having fun was so slick), FAST, and integrated Xbox Live features a lot better than the Blades. The quick guide was nice and dark mode was easy on the eyes. Themes were well displayed (I had Halo Reach Forge World). AVATAR ITEMS like the Reach Falcon and ODST helmets were sick. I'm getting so nostalgic lol Idk I just feel like the continued minimalism/modernization trend makes gaming feel really isolating. The sounds of this dash make me feel like I'm coming home, the new dashes make me feel lonely, and the loud beep PlayStations make makes me feel unwelcome, like I'm being punished for turning it on. I love this dash, even if there's a lot you can't access and is wasted when offline. Aurora on my RGH brings some of those feelings, but it's just not the same.

360 era was truly one of the most memorable experience I've had in my gaming career

My personal favourite of the 360's dashboards. I wish that they stuck with this one

This was Xbox at its best... The sound and colors were just unmatched and legendary...

This one was better than today's but the best is the original dashboard. The colors were great the sounds were nice and no avatars..just gaming simple and classic

Like how this had dark mode

I miss this SO MUCH AND I WANT THIS TO COME BACK!

i got my first 360 in 2008 i had the blades dashboard for only some time so this one is much more nostalgic to me. i loved the blue theme and the sound especially. i wish they would let you have this old dashboard on the 360 still as an option. it really had its own charm. i remember that old avatar editor easter egg where you'd get weird colors and other stuff or something ahhh to be a kid again :') i can at least thank microsoft for making such a small thing make me go down memory lane.

2 months later and this video got me to get a 360 with this dashboard

Ah, the NXE dashboard, home to many memories including kids throwing racial slurs in Modern Warfare 2 lobbies while The Pro was banning people on Xbox Live.

Honestly, the best Xbox I grew up with. No wonder why people don’t like Xbox that much now a days.

the absolute best user interface for the Xbox 360.

NXE Has to be the best XBOX 360 Dashboard ever I.M.O

this should've been the definitive dashboard version

How did you manage to put real porn on RU-vid?! All jokes aside, this is my favourite UI for any console to-date. I remember being so disappointed when they updated to the flat design they had after this one.

Wow! I think this video might be the only place you can find the original 360 startup in true, non-interpolated 60fps!

The original Xbox 360 startup (the one in this video) is one of the best and most iconic console startups ever. The dashboard here, I think it was called the "Jasper", is also my favorite. Wish there was a way to revert my 360 back to it.

This is pure serotonin

This is the dashboard that I grew up with. The dashboard that started it all. I love the NXE. Just a shame we can't go back to it.

this was the best dashboard ever. simpler than the blades but still had character unlike the later versions which were flat and ugly

i swear man a lot of memories when I was younger and play the Xbox 360 i used to love watching the blade dashboard before I started playing the Xbox 360 with my mom friends and i had a good time for that even when I wasn't playing I was at my moms friends house on different days I was playing with their kids as young age same as me play time got over and I went in the living room sitting on couch looking at the blade dashboard while waiting for 2 friends to hop on the 360 and watch them play the game which is Fight Night Round 3 i enjoyed watching them playing that game i swear I miss those days always good memories

If you remember doritos crash course then you are a certified xbox 360 veteran

the start up animation/sound, and the blue menus and sound effects are so much better than what we have now

If 24 minutes could be described as my childhood this is the exact video I’d show my children 😭 man I wish i could go back to them glory days

Managed to cop an NXE 360 for under £20! 360s with older dashboards are stupidly rare these days so they usually go on sale for high asf prices :( I want to get a blades console too but my RGH running freestyle dash with the blades skin will do for now

This makes me want to save up for a rgh 360 with freestyle dash, so many memories

I love that dashboard

Best looking Xbox user interface honestly.

When i first got my Xbox 360 it was Xbox 360 Arcade with Blades it was brand new when i got it man miss Xbox 360 days hardly anyone uses a mic anymore on Xbox one or PC

I just wish microsoft would let us choose the dashboard we want, and they would put enough effort to make an update for blades and NXE to copy their current xbox live services to older dashes instead of using the old offline servers. Share the word!

That sound when you finished the avatar is nostalgic from when I changed my avatar all the time

At the time I loved this update and it objectively improved on the functionality and design I think, but for pure nostalgia, I will always love the blades dashboard.

This was the dashboard I got when I first turned on the 360, then after a while it changed but it was mostly this at the beginning

It’s strangely fast and smooth .

The select sound sounds similar to the Discord notification sound now lmao

"Why are we not here" why you gotta do this to me, man. God, seems like it was yesterday when I would rush home from school to watch the new RVB episode and play Halo 3..

Fuck I'd sell my soul to come back to those times

Man I remember playing GoW2 and mw2, this dashboard 😊

I still have a new Xbox 360 with the nxe dashboard new unboxed just for this dashboard I’ll never forget Xbox during 2010 to 2013 the memories I made will stay with me until I die

First time i ever played 360 it was on this dashboard. I kinda like it better then the 2011+ one

Can we all agree the first two 360 dashboards were better looking than the last two dashboards?

The “Discord ping” sounds exactly the same as that select sound from the dashboard!

as someone who grew up with the 360 in 2015 and only thought that the windows 8 esque dashboard was the only one that existed... this looks so much better, really reminds me of the windows vista era

I didn’t grow up with this dashboard, I grew up with the late 2012 Xbox 360 UI, and I gotta say that the NXE dashboard looks way better, and that’s not nostalgia talking since I never experienced it lol

6:42 Just WOW. I still remember Netflix Party mode. Late nights watching horror movies and other stuff with the homies, man it was just a whole different time of vibin.

Old enough to remember using this dashboard.. good times

I remember getting my first Xbox 360 back in 2009 & setting it up on the nxe dashboard ahhh the memories 😩

Back when days were simple an things felt okay

I miss this dashboard so much, I remember playing Xbox 360 a lot as a kid to the point the sound effects of this dashboard are permanently burned into my memory I hope it's possible to mod the 360's menu to look like this again, cus I want to do that if I get another 360

God I miss this so much :(

Nostalgia attack

Man the Xbox 360/PS3/Nintendo Wii era was the absolute best. 😌

Wow I miss having this dashboard back then I didn't have many games just, modern warfare 2,NBA 2k10,gears of war and Tekken 5 I also use to download videos and music from zune music dashboard also 😁

I miss this dashboard I wish there a update that you can choose what dashboard you won't to used

I wish someone invents a working time machine to go back to the good NXE days and not have some stupidly messed up UI with bloatware. :( Thank you, i would pay to go back :)

NXE dashboard is my favorite i have it when it was 2008 on a 2007 halo 3 xbox 360 limited edition when it was updated but this dashboard last from 2008-2011 before being replace of metro design .

I remember liking the old avatar music I wish it was kept with the kinect dashboard avatar menu music

I grew up with this... Game systems ive played with Beginning years When i started gaming with it End years When i stopped Gaming with it ----------------------------------------------------- Wii (Still Use) 2007-Present ------------------------------------------------------ Original XBOX (Sold it) 2002-2003 White Xbox 360 (Still have it to this day just don't play with it, Only really played HALO & GTA IV on it Lol) 2008-2011 Xbox One (Sold it) 2014-2014 ------------------------------------- PS2 Slim (Still have to this Day Just don't play with it) 2001-2007 PS3 Fat (Still have it to this day just dont play with it) 2010-2016 PS4 (Still use) 2013- Present ------------------------------------------------

Welp, with the new xbox one update, we are kinda getting some features like this.

thanks for this video

I remember buying a wifi adapter at GameStop just to play online and replace my old 20gb for a 60gb hard drive had to go out my area to get it but it was worth it at the end though 😁

Best dashboard of all console ( a step up the ps3 xbi ) i loved so much gray menus , sounds ecc ecc

I know this would take a LOT of space and god knows what else but I wish they’d make it so you could select any Xbox 360 dashboard that you wanted on the new Xbox consoles.

I remember this so much....

This thing cures my anxiety

This is definitely better than what came later. The dark menu instead of bright menu was a better choice. Things were in a logical place too. They probably only changed it so they can market and sell other crap. I wonder if the slides were even better. Got into X360 too late for that but they did have a simple and clean look.

Last true dashboard for Xbox 360

It was also back in day when you had bought Mass Effect 2 on launch day.

this is the best dashboard, change my mind

Best 360 dash!

I really miss the Netflix theater

I miss this and the blades. Need to find a 360 with either of the dashboards.

the UI on Xbox consoles never seems to be the same. they could just pick one that looks good and stick with it but they don't. regardless the NXE update was a great redesign and i'll take it over the modern trash that we're now forced to live with.

love this though i didn't had xbox 360

HOW IS INTERNET EXPLORER A GAME!?
