Friday I was able to download the New Xbox Experience Dashboard and give it a test run (thank you Major Nelson!).

I must say, I was under excited for the kind of update this is. But I am truly blown away. Friday night I got home from work and the update was ready to download. I started the update and within 10 minutes was flying through the Xbox 360 dashboard like never before. Avatar creation was a breeze (and way more fun than I expected) and the interface is stellar.

Once your download is done, your Xbox will take you to the avatar creation tool. There are some already created you can choose from or customize your own. I chose to customize my own. Face, clothes, shoes, hats and more, are ready for you to play with and more are coming each week. Be sure to check back often for more options for clothing. Once you’ve created your avatar you can take a picture for your gamerpic.

This is probably the best web game I’ve played in a long time. If not for the difficulty and animation but simply for the sounds (you’ll see what I’m talking about when you play it once).

Just played (I know, it’s old) the Far Cry 2 Experience game. It was kinda fun!

Now, you go give it a shot. Let me know what you get.

Far Cry 2 Experience

One of the most exciting aspects of the new Far Cry 2 from Ubisoft was the return of the Map Editor.

More than a map editor (yes, we’re looking at you Forge) the Far Cry map maker allows full customization of the terrain, natural elements, man made objects and spawn/weapons locations. The ability to change almost everything makes the possibilities almost endless. For the record, I am using the Xbox 360 version.

Let it be know first off that I have been a fan of the Far Cry series for years. Having played the first Far Cry on PC and then Xbox, as well as Predator on Xbox 360, I know where the series has come from and what I thought I could expect. With the release of Far Cry 2 last week, I was ecstatic to see what Ubi Montreal was going to bring to us this time around.

A good friend said Far Cry 2 is a first person shooter in a GTA world. I think that sums it up quite nicely.
