Facebook,Twitter,Last.FM & Zune instant on demand hits xbox live :D
Oct 23rd
Yes, it’s that time of the month year again where the good old folks @ Microsoft gives you a sneak peak at the next major xbox system update.
In this case it’s the addition of major social sites that has everyone buzzing. With the integration of Twitter you can now tweet out your latest bashing on xbox or information you found out while in voip chat in game
Here is the login screen
The Twitter application on xbox live is simple and strait forward on screen that auto updates showing you the latest tweets your following as well as allowing you to post your own tweets and check out the latest trendy tweets of the day. Also your avatar will play with what ever prob you have on him at the time while you tweet
Here is my live Twitter feed
Next up is Facebook this application brings alot to your xbox console from posting to your facebook from xbox live to checking out your photos and your friends latest photos on xbox live.
Two things i was unable to try out i was unable to search for friends who had xbox and facebook *note they give you the ability to find out who has both and add them to either you xbox or your facebook* and i was unable to post pictures from in game to my facebook im not too sure as to how that works and i will get back to you when i finally figure it all out.
Last.fm has finally made it’s way to xbox and im gladE to say it’s looking pretty darn good
With Last.fm your able to switch between your profiles checkout the last station you listen to as well as your personal library stations ,recommended stations,popular stations you can even customize and set up a new station right within xbox there is even a new station called the gamer stations where you can see the artist behind the music that’s in your favorite video game *im guessing * lol
And don’t forget the scrobbler when ever you listen to last.fm it tracks your songs on the last.fm site makeing sure to add to that count and keeping you in the last.fm loop via xbox who could ask for more?
gamer station
your library stations
stream music
stream music with changing backgrounds for that artist that is playing
Lastly we have Zune instant on HD in full 1080P which is both a music part and a video part each in it’s respected area on the xbox media bar what everyone must know that No its not free you still have to pay for the videos you watch but the plus side is its instant play you dont wait for load time and you can choose to buy the movie or rent it but i dont know… is it me or is the prices of the move a tad bit more expensive …damn point system….. i think the best feature zune instant on has to offer is the ability to watch these movies with up to SEVEN friends yep that’s right PARTY MODE FOR ZUNE INSTANT ON DEMAND!!!!
You can choose to buy or rent a movie to stream in 1080p as soon as you rent or buy it
All in all i love the addition and it feels like something that should have been on xbox from the start not alot of ppl rely on twitter like i do and facebook so adding these things for me is a great addition one thing im kinda down on and who knows they
might add this later on the ability to listen to your last.fm stream while you play a video game. epic if you could do that *WINK* *WINK*
