    Hold da phone! You *finally* said something I agree with! #WhodaThunk :-D

    Whilst I can certainly understand gamers of a certain age being anti-avatar, or otherwise regarding them as undue clutter on a page, I like to think they GAMIFY one's personality. Since we're all pretty adept with manipulating characters in games, it stands
    to reason we'd simply embrace more of the same when we're *not* playing games - whether or not others like or dislike them, you can't deny they embody the spirit or playfulness of gaming New Xbox Avatars coming :)

    And yeah, I fully appreciate that Xbox avatars had more to "do" on Xbox 360, but at least they haven't been summarily EXECUTED or ground into digital ash - if you don't know what I'm on about, it's all about looking back: long before Twitter or Instagram
    enabled narcissism on a global scale, there was a place for putting your virtual self out there. On PC, it was called "Second Life". On console, it was called "PlayStation Home". And yep, I've been down this road many times before, so I won't go on and on
    (again)...

    I'll simply say that Sony's infrastructure allowed one's avatar to cohabitate in public, where you could meet up with friends, join clubs, play arcade games, go SHOPPING (!), and watch live concerts by "cutting edge" performers of the day (including in-game
    representations of Dizzee Rascal and Basement Jaxx)! Sony pulled the plug on this virtual oasis when they went all-in with PS VR, so that's why I'm ever so thankful for Xbox avatars!! They might not "do" anything, but they surely remind us of gaming's long
    tail (or should that be tale?). Whatevs. New Xbox Avatars coming :p

    New Xbox Avatars coming

    They have avatars on Xbox One?!?! Where?!?!

    I agree with my bf. It's pretty obscured compared with how they do it on Xbox 360. They need to show more of our avatar on the dash, like they do on Xbox 360. But this idea of revamped avatars is cool. I remember this Australian kid who I defriended who
    was obsessed with avatars. He lol like changed his avatar appearance everyday, and sometimes changed his gamer picture to go with it.
    weirder? Yea I still hate him. Swearing at me. He asked me if we could date, I said nope I'm taken. Yea I defriended him ages ago. But he wants hot girls on his friends list. But he ain't getting on my friends list again. He wanted to skype chat with us.
    He like lists all these girls from different countries and calls them his gf's. If + when these new avatars come out, he'll probably spend like 3 hours a day in avatar editor lol...

    New Xbox Avatars coming

    Who is Tom Warren? Why isn't this up on Microsoft's official Xbox YouTube channel? This looks like good news. But what P37 said, Xbox One's UI is crappy compared to Xbox 360. Microsoft has received many complaints about Xbox One's UI. Although the UI has
    improved since launched. Xbox 360 shows us our avatars clearly on the dash, in parties, and a big Social page featuring it. Xbox 360 also shows ALL of our friends 3D avatars. Xbox One doesn't. It only shows some of our friends 3D avatars through the avatar
    app. There's no point in revamping avatars if they don't first revamp the Xbox One dash. No point in expressing our 3D avatars when the Xbox One needs to be more pro-avatar rather than pro-Windows-10-boxes.

    But it's a good idea that Microsoft should pursue. Older people tend to not be so interested in avatars, thinking they're a waste of time. But Xbox isn't just for old people. It's also one of the reasons why I chose to get Xbox. Why just have a 2D gamer
    picture and be satisfied just with that as your profile?
    Yup. I don't really like Xbox One's UI too. Too many boxes. And TBH it doesn't show our 3D avatars as well as how they do it on Xbox 360. But it'll be shweet if and when they do this and roll it out on Xbox One X.

    New Xbox Avatars coming

    Avatars went downhill on the Xbox One by not seeing them. With these new ones I would like to see more of our avatar on the home dash, by walking about and doing silly actions with what we chose to look at on the home dash. Otherwise, what's the point in
    them by just using one as a picture.
