Those are miles better than what we have with NXE. I mean come on, I can't even change my shirt color?!?!!?!

It's so clean and matches the curve of the 360 perfectly. As far as avatars go, meh. The only time I touch mine is when they put out new clothes and I need a graphic to go with the corresponding article! I love the second image.

I'm certainly glad they ditched the blade-look to them- I love the new mini-blades! The avatars are kinda so-so- they have been implemented well, and it's neat to see what people come up with for their avatars, but they do look a little childish and the animations/poses are eerily feminine. I really hope they don't try and cash in on the avatar clothing, but I can't say I wouldn't see it happening. ---- Gamertag: Fox City It’s neat to see how they took those concepts and implemented them in the final product- you can see the beginnings of the image things you scroll through, the party system, and the different “channels.” I’m certainly glad they ditched the blade-look to them- I love the new mini-blades!

They need a TOTAL revamp look to the avatars, or give me an option to have something far better/real looking. Yeah, I agree Deac… but is it just clothing/face mask/accessory add-ons?

I know many guys dislike them, but I know women like that kind of stuff. Microsoft just needs to give us a choice to have something more cool/adult looking.... Something far deeper. I don't want preppy clothing!

It's slow, Avatars take some time to load in all the way, & t5hey need a total re-haul of their childish look.. It would have been FAR better if Microsoft made something so deep that you could create anything you wanted to look real, or childish... Like if I wanted my character to look like Braveheart, Blade, or Rocky, yet others may want a Batman (Comic or movie look) Thew avatars now are dumb, & I feel the 360 is a kids toy more after having them.
