The Games hub has seen a total redesign and it looks fantastic. The collection listing has smaller game tiles now and the Xbox Live section now shows your fully animated avatar right away. Sometimes he'll actually sneak off to other parts of the Games hub panorama when he gets bored. Your friends listing, messages, profile, and achievements are now all accessible right inside the Games hub. The Friends tile actually shows some of your friends' avatars in the thumbnail and will change periodically. You can see which friends are online and compare their scores and achievements for each game. There's no need to install the Xbox Live Extras app anymore... for those features. The Avatar customization features and Avatar Marketplace are not directly built in and will require the installation of the new Xbox Live Extras app (which is not available yet.)
In terms of the actual games, one of the features we've seen demoed was the instant resume while multitasking. Unfortunately we'll need updated games that support the fast resume feature. Right now, with current games, they'll essentially restart themselves and then resume while using the fast task switcher.
