Report: Xbox One dashboard, download details leak after consoles ship
Moonlight Swami claimed that in its current state, the Xbox One takes 17 seconds to reach its dashboard during boot up. A 500 MB update was allegedly present after the console was booted for the first time, which could be the day one download that's required to use the system. Moonlight Swami stated he was also able to begin playing games once they were 50 percent installed onto the console's hard drive.
The Xbox One Marketplace seems to be partially stocked, as well - Moonlight Swami tweeted supposed screenshots of the marketplace detailing the download size for various games. The photos suggest the largest game available is NBA2K14 at 43 GB, with Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag trailing at 20 GB, Dead Rising 3 at 19 GB and LocoCycle at 13 GB. Moonlight Swami also installed Call of Duty: Ghosts from a retail disc, which he claims requires 39 GB of hard drive space.
Moonlight Swami's tweets offer a glimpse at a supposed dashboard section for "featured challenges," which seem to be time-specific tasks for individual games. The involved picture shows things like playing a game of football within two weeks of Madden NFL 25's launch, or earning 5 million SP during a certain period in Need for Speed Rivals.
The early impressions party stopped once Microsoft banned the console, but Larry "Major Nelson" Hryb has reached out to Moonlight Swami for information and to get the scenario "sorted out."

Amp-PwnLillard I'm guessing you can change the dashboard colors, but who knows.
On their Demo Video they did say you can change the dashboard colors
Yes, I'm pretty sure it's confirmed that you can change the colors.
You can change the colors and themes.

fex I do like how it looks very customizable and win8 like :D
You're one of few who actually like the win 8 look.
I would only enjoy it on a touch screen monitor.

MrUnDFindFrog That is just crazy! The HDD that comes with the console is 500GB which sounds like a lot, but when the games are abut 20GB each, that just depletes the point of having a 500GB HDD.
but you dont have to buy your games on the console get them on disc
Exactly.
Not only that, but if you want to you could upgrade the HDD yourself.

Ohm just read an article a hour or so ago that said you would be able to change the color
Yeah, they are making it able to personalize your console more.
I like the idea.

JayBossLingo Xbox does have a better UI, perks of being a software development company
haha.
That doesn't have much to do with it.
Sony has the money to buy some of the best software develops in the world.
