  1. Will Avatar Kinect ever see the light on Xbox One?


    I personally enjoyed Avatar Kinect on Xbox 360, but I was wondering if there will ever be one for Xbox One? If avatars are retiring, no chance that it will happen and Xbox One may become boring as avatars are retiring.

    :)

    Mario Kart type game on the Xbox One?

    What happened to that "Amazing Kinect Game" that they kept tooting at Game Conventions where your avatars drove the cars?

    Did it ever see the light of day?

    "Sonic Superstar Racing" was amazing on the 360 and you could put your Avatar in that.

    Not only that but you could get 3 of your mates round and play 4 player split screen co-op... online on XBox LIVe without them needing "guest profiles" etc..

    Will Karaoke ever see the light on Xbox One?

    i'm sure there will be, i recall reading a while back that they were release a karaoke game in Japan, but it was a timed rental, so you pay a few dollars and get to play for a few hours kind of thing, no idea if that is going to be released outside of Japan.

    and it looks like you're not alone.

  5. While I agree that the console hasn't gotten boring without the avatars, I can certainly believe that the console isn't as lively without them...

    Lively how? They add nothing to the console performance or functions.

    To me Avatars are a novelty. I like having it for my gamerpic but that's about it for me. The only game I felt warranted Avatar use was 1 vs 100. Man I miss that game.

  9. Genchy - it added a virtually infinite amount of personality and personalization to the last-gen console! Seeing your avatar walk onto your profile screen when you accessed it on the X360, for example, was always awesome IMO and lively, certainly more-so
    than the static, flat image that was your gamerpic. And as DB said, it added to a lot of really cool games too! I loved 1 vs. 100, Full House Poker, seeing my avatars in Mortal Kombat lobbies, flying planes in Snoopy Flying Ace, and much more! We don't have
    those on the One, and I for 1, would love to see them again (or at least something like them).

    i'm with bowski477, they were a novelty that i avoided on the 360 because it took too long to load.

    they can stay, they can go, my experience on the X1 will be the same.

    I read that Phil Spencer had said that the avatars are going to be coming back in the future. While I never played an avatar game, in my opinion avatars did add a little more "life" to the Xbox 360 dashboard with the cool themes

    I kind of liked the avatars and the games that incorporated them. Always got a kick out of watching my avatar parachute to safety from a biplane in Snoopy Flying Ace. I think the new Pure Poker would be a lot less dry if avatars replaced the player photo
    cards.

    I miss them for some things. The new poker game seems kind of blah without them. The reactions and little they did in Full House Poker was a little bonus I thought.
     
  14. Avatars are retiring. There will not be an Avatar Kinect on Xbox One. Microsoft is getting rid of avatars and all users who bought gears for the avatars will be issued refunds.
