In spite of the fact that the Avatars are a fairly trivial addition to NXE, I still find that there is some level of fun to be had with them. Is there anything you do with that program for a decent bit of entertainment?

I've tried to mix things up a bit by making outfits for each day of the week. So far I have "Studly Saturday," where I dress my Avatar in stylish casual clothing, "Transvestite Tuesday," and "Wigger Wednesday."

I can't help but feel they're a useless addition that basically rip off the Mii's. It would probably help if they actually did something.

Such as Xbox Sports? or Xbox Play? Or Xbox Sports Resort? That would be great!

I tried to make my guy look like a cowboy. I feel I had moderate success. It was fun though. And he looks cute playing with an RC Warthog.

I pray you are being sarcastic. If not, **shudder**.

I get the feeling Microsoft will probably release something more substantial for them soon. I think they were just waiting to see if Nintendo was going to try and sue them before they put a lot of money into it.

Not quite that far, but maybe a LittleBigPlanet style platformer where we can import avatars. Or if they're feeling really ambitious, an MMO style game world like Playstation Home, only more colourful and fun like Braid.

I just want a bit of effort put in.

You should definitely watch the (relatively) new Escapist video about new things Avatars can have have/do. Tis some pretty cool stuuf

Playing with a toy Warthog that costs an extraordinary amount for what it is? I was hoping for something a little more interactive.
