re: The official Xbox 360 thread - the console of choice on nuclear submarines
The only thing I don't like is the new interface for Netflix. I occasionally use it to catch some older titles and old TV shows like Mission Impossible or Hawaii Five-O. Once you click on the TV title icon that you want to see, it will automatically play episode 1 of the 1st season, you have to shift through every single season while episode 1 is playing to find the one you want to watch.
I do mind the new Netflix app though. Does anyone know how to restart a movie that you watched previously back to the beginning? For example, my daughter loves Tangled so we watch it to the end and then a few days later she'll want to watch it again. When we start it back up it's on the end credits where we left it. The only thing I found to do is the high speed rewind back through the whole movie.
The previous interface had resume play and restart play.

I like the new dash, but I agree on Netflix.
My boy wanted to watch an episode of Phineas and Ferb today. It automatically selected one to play, navigating the other episodes was not real intuitive, and I couldn't tell which ones we had seen before and which ones we hadn't. Either it's got a learning curve or it's just not as easy to use as the previous version.

Today's Bing holiday offer is one month of Xbox Live Gold membership for free. It's only for non-Gold members, though.
Speaking of Bing, anyone still doing the Rewards thing? I've been pretty diligent and recently accumulated enough credits to get another 400 point MS card. Turns out they don't offer that denomination anymore, just 100 MS point cards for 125 Bing credits. (Actually, when I first checked, they were going for 150 credits, but thankfully they lowered it to the equivalent of the 400 MS point card rate.) And I don't think there's a limit to how many you can get anymore.

i HATE the new netlix on Live. We watch alot of TV shows and I hate the auto-play it does. There was nothing wrong with the old app, why the heck did they F it up.

I just called Netflix at 1-888-638-3549 and told them about the problem. I recommend anyone else upset with the changes do the same. You get faster service if you know your Service Code. To get the Service Code, log into your account from a computer, and click the Service Code box at the bottom. That will generate a six digit number that you enter in the keypad when you call.

Netflix has spent the last 6 months f'ing up their business model... why not F this up too?
Maybe they'll get to it.

Another aggravation...when you scroll through the netflix queue, once you highlight a movie's cover art, it all of the sudden changes to some random still pic from the movie. Sure it isn't something major, but it aggravates me.

Have they started the holiday daily deals yet? If so what is it for today? I'm stuck at work so can't check it out.

If you download the UFC app you can get the Lesner fight free. This one isn't restricted to beta users either, I just got the HD stream free. It's on the dashboard. They said it's a christmas gift.

Doing a Google search, it appears that was the regular price of this DLC. Apparently, the developers wanted it to be free (and it is on the PC), but MS wouldn't let it be free on the 360, so they made it for as cheap as they could -- 80 points.

I didn't know if $1 was cheap enough, so I'll wait until it's $0.50

Yeah, there were only 25k slots. I didn't realize this when I posted. Sorry.

Yeah, just turned on my Xbox, saw the UFC app was there, so downloaded it...and it says UFC 141 is sold out. I was like WTF? Until I came here and saw they were offering it free.

Major Nelson said the released more slots for the UFC fight about an hour ago, so if you're still looking for sweaty man-on-man action, I guess there's still hope!
