Time for Dashboard 2.0
I'm sure its obvious to most Xbox 360 owners that the dashboard (originally developed by AKQA) is in need of a comprehensive re-design. There is simply too much content in Marketplace for the current format to work and de-listing poorly selling Live Arcade titles won't really help. Having not spent any time with Sony's XMB interface in the PS3 I can't say whether they've done a better job but their redesigned PlayStation Store certainly looks a lot more inviting than Xbox Live Marketplace.
The Fanboy's excellent take on what Dashboard 2.0 (or perhaps the '2008 Fall Update'?) could look like is probably a step too far for Microsoft but then there are rumours they may be developing something even more ambitious. Roll on E3.
