Id preffered the menu items positioned around the orb (like the default) for that added authentic look, apart from that it looks nice.

Looks very good, but I wish unleash had the 3d models for the arms instead of the 2d menu.

agreed, but ideally you could set a different menu for sub menus

not possible to use a screenshot or something of the original arms?
the arms you have now dont't really look nice with that great orb.

one more remark: align the game names and other menu items a bit more to the right and maybe use a bit brighter highlight color

It's a quik test to see if it can be done.
The final version will be more clean with better fonts also.
