Looks like the Xbox Live Marketplace has some new content, there are trailers for Burnout Revenge and Dead Rising as well as a Burnout Revenge Theme and Gamer Pics available to purchase.

I'm using the Quake 4 Theme now, I wasn't very happy with the Penny Arcade Theme.

Thanks, Chimpster.

It's so hard to see things on the PA theme. :(

Is there a way to preview the themes?

Only on the marketplace site. Not on the box itself. Though more and more are using the little banner to show it off.

Weird, I LOVED my PA theme! Of course, I recently changed it to the Oblivion theme.

For um....no apparent reason.

Awesome! I didn't know that. Thanks for the heads up.

I haven't downloaded any themes for the 360. Micropayments add up. Plus you need "points" and I have "0". Why do they bother with "points"? Why not just say this costs $2, that costs $4?

Because it's easier to forget that way how much you really are spending. Along the same lines as prices ending with "99". 1999.99 is really 2 grand, but your brain see's the 1 and thinks it's a bad deal.

I watched the 720p Dead Rising trailer last night and it looked kick ass. Gives a good idea of what the game will look like vs the shit image quality trailers I have seen online. The gore is sweet, I am looking forward to this a lot more now.

the PA theme is great!

I'll be checking out the Dead Rising trailer tonight. I've seen one online, but like Mortis said, the quality wasn't impressive.

what's cooler is that I'm making themes for the 360 ;)

I was using the PA theme for a long time, but you're right, it is hard to see. I switched to the Kameo "Elves" theme. I may look into the Oblivion theme if it's worthwhile, though I doubt it's colorful enough for my taste.

The Dead Rising trailer is also available for download via Xbox Live on the 360. It looks like a cross between RE4 and State of Emergency.

I, regretfully, bought the Atlanta Falcons theme when I first got my 360 (free and early thanks to Mountain Dew!) and was disappointed by how lazy EA was in making it. A picture of the Georgia Dome with a Falcons logo and a more noticable Madden logo. Now I have a picture of Keith Brooking, a Falcons Pro Bowl linebacker, as my background thanks to Windows Media Connect. I see no reason to buy themes now, as I can use any picture I want thanks to WMC.
On a side note, Gamer picture sales will die if they allow people to use the upcoming camera to make gamer pics.

Dead Rising looks to be way too much fun to be legal.
