    MajorNelson has stated that next week Microsoft will be launching another way to browse content on Xbox LIVE Arcade, called Destination Arcade. With a growing library of over 250 Arcade games, Destination Arcade will allow you to discover new games and content you enjoy through an easy-to-use visual browser. You’ll have the ability to sort by price, community rating, and more! Also, stay up to date on the latest arcade releases through a news feed and also find out what games your friends like and recommend. This brand new recommendation engine & visual browser app will be available in the US on July 14th from the Games Marketplace section of the dashboard.

    Yes, that would be handy. I'm sure it's not too hard to do through a firmware update.

    Better late than never. Why should you even complain about it? It's like the people who hate the web browser idea. Maybe you don't want it, but others do.

    If this is a Dashboard 'plug-in' like Twitter or Facebook, then it'll be a cool app. If this is released as a game, like Halo Waypoint or Guitar Hero VIP, then it's not cool at all..

    If you can use Windows Media Center on your Xbox then you can use an internet browser but that will probably be the only way to ever browse the internet on the 360, they'd probably never release a browser in a future update.

    Why does it look all dark and gloomy to me? Where are the fresh happy colors of the normal dashboard? Looks ugly imo! :(
