I absolutely hate the remote gaming only on the web. This feels like a huge step backwards....

Do you have your ports open?

I don't agree - for me most part this is the way to go - make it more customizable!!!!

And which parts are essential for us are so different depending on how much online you are gaming, using friends sections and whatnot.

Only solution - which they now started to realize - make us customize more.

Much less clutter in center - something I had to just pass by before.

Old home screen were horrific in the sense it use 80% of screen for nonse like supposed to be 4 last used games/app - which does not work anyway(still doesn't actually).

Last used section - let us remove it. It just clutters my screen. I just use guide to see that if I want.

Add To Home section - very large, does not bother me, but let us tell what is to be part of it. Now it's just other screen captures from what I could see. Let us pick exactly what to put beside game icon. Own achievements.
statistics, own screen captures, publicly shared screen captures etc.

Pins section - to small - let us choose between three sizes or similar. Icon are just about identifyable to tell which game it is, and bookmarks for Edge or apps does not show text what it is when selected.

Add more section - something added here every time whether we want or not - ads area for MS it seems - let us remove that as sections above. I was able to first add each of these and they disappeared, and I could remove that above where
added, later. Perfect - but it shows up next time you sign in anyway. Let privacy setting tell if we accept this or not.

I have to agree, are you trying to send us back to the PC. This is the most horrible interface I ever seen. Why did you ruin this for us? Not even a warning, I spent time trying to figure out what was wrong with my console, turns
out it was just made to look like 2001. It doesn't even fit properly on my TV. If a programmer working for me showed me this crap I would send him packing.

PLEASE PUT IT BACK THE WAY IT WAS!!!!

Had this update for a while & you will get used to it.

I didn't like it at first but the more you use it the better it gets.

Other than the community/activity feed it's a big improvement.

Either way,you are stuck with it now until the next time there's a new update,probably next year.

I agree too, this is retarded the new interface looks so ugly and i cannot stop thinking that microsoft just wants to overheat the original xbox one, so we move on to the s or x ...
