How many themes do you download only for them to be obscured by the dashboard?  What is the point if you can’t see your favourite character’s face?  Well no more.  Themes are now presented on the top half of the screen, with all the vital information displayed underneath.  Some themes are incorporated into your friends list, I currently have Gears of War 2’s Last Day theme running and each friend is depicted in front of an item from Gears, be it the Raven, Centaur or Drop Pods.

Speaking of friends lists, two gentle flicks down on the LS from Spotlight will take you to your friends.  Each friend is displayed individually in the same new style.  You can flick through all 100 very quickly if you so desire.  Each friend’s new avatar will be displayed; next to it will be box art for the game they are currently playing.
