Hey there gais!

Im just trying out xbox`s Internet browser and I have to say its **** trololololol.
Anyone else tried it yet? Also my keypad doesnt work properly, cant see the entire screen why couldn`t they add chrome or firefox instead of their special cousin internet explorer?
So yeah if you don`t know xbox has a new download waiting for you, its kind of messy and adds more needless boxes and crap.

Thats all Im gonna go and watch netflix and probably fall asleep.

Because IE is developed by Microsoft...?

Actually, console web browsers haven't been done right yet now that I think about it.
The Opera browser they use on the Wii is atrocious. And the Wii runs on Mac OS... and ALL web browsers seem to work well on Mac OS, at least from my experience.

I know but its sooooo ****.

Microsoft's plans to slowly transform the Xbox 360 into a really crap PC are almost complete now.

Ive always hated IE but it works better on my 360 than it runs on my laptop (crashes all the time, runs at snail pace and filled with errors on my laptop) hence why I use Firefox and Chrome. :lol:

Plenty of things to improve on it but its an ok alternative to using my phone, annoyed there isnt any flash player capabilities however. Even my phone runs flash perfectly fine...

Also a little annoying how there are no tabs.

I've got the update, but I only use my xbox to play games, or download more games. No need for exploring the internetz lulz.

IE. Possibly the worst browser of all time. And its ten times worse on the Xbox. But yeah, what Scarecrow (errr... I mean, Jack) said. I play games on the Xbox. I surf the web on my laptop. There a reason why I bought both!

Internet Explorer isn't so bad. Afterall, without it we wouldn't be able to download its competition. :troll:

Microsoft's plans to slowly transform the Xbox 360 into a really crap PC are almost complete now.

And yet Microsofts attempt to make a PC like an Xbox are still going strong....

 

[cheezMcNASTY]

To be fair, it was at one point the better option. Lets all just take a moment of silence and be glad that Netscape doesn't exist any more.

 

[Daniel Ray]

Hence, the Xbox is called the PC, and vice versa... And the phones are somewhere in between?

I dont mind that consoles are incorperating more PC features but I dont want to use my console as a computer. I would use IE more on 360 if the flash player was incorperated as I could stream things to my TV that arent on the iPlayer/40D etc.
