I like the idea of avatars for the dashboard, but I hope they aren’t actually used in many games. I’d like to keep the cartoonish characters out of my FPSs.

on another note, being able to literally “see” your friends who are online at the same time as you are may inspire more multi-player centered activities instead of just going solo … touche!

I respect M$ for capitalizing on an opportunity to rake in more dough in an economic slump by pumping out some cross-core materials, but to make something like this mandatory(!?), from the standpoint of a casual and somewhat h/c gamer, a little funky groovy dude lookin’ at me just doesn’t say “let’s chainsaw some mofos today!!” no… it says “o hai! i can has GoW2?” no thanks, M$!!

What about a giant version of your avatar replacing Mr Staypuft in the Ghostbusters game?

Hmm, I rather like Goon360′s naming of the avatars

I thought of them also as Dashboard specific, so having them in casual/family games sounds good to me. I think it would be funny as heck to see a larger-scale version of your avatar in a Gears multiplayer session. But as family-specific avatars, I don’t really care that they won’t go above the E10+ rating

Well that sucks! Most of my games are rated T and M. I didn’t know you could move your avatar around unless they made it a feat. Besides I wouldn’t tell my avatar to pimp slap some one unless they act like a jack @$$… If they did I hope you can choose the type of slap you want. It would be the Rick James slap acourse LOL!! R.I.P. Rick James.

the 1st title to integrate avatars into the game is the new Scene It … the g/f and I are looking forward to it … I think she is gonna make me set up her own gold account so she can have a GT and her own avatar …
