So what if the Xbox is looking to make more money? Lets face the facts, it's a business. Let me repeat that again, "It's a business!" Here in America we believe that people have the right to try to make money off of their work. If this is something that allows them to make a little more money than so be it. You dont have to buy it because that is YOUR right as a consumer. Plus, the update comes with some additional stuff that doesnt cost me anything that can add to the functionality of it all so I dont mind it.

As a PS3 owner, I can only say the new dashboard update, and the addition of avatars cannot be more pointless than Playstation Home. At least the avatars are just there for all the see when you log on, you don't have to actively go into a sterile asinine virtual world to wave at someone in your gap shirt and pants you paid £5 for. Also how come it hasn't come to the UK yet?! It's fucking data! How can data that is identical to that in american take longer to come to the UK? I hate this nationalism bullshit. It's interesting how so much better Japan PS Home was too. Grr ¬_¬

Yeah with updates like that I don't see why they can't release them worldwide at the same time. Why make one region wait one week longer then the other? Never got the reasoning for that.

it is kinda meh and like what most people have been saying about the clothes you dont have to buy them. the clothes still are not as bad as buying furniture in home. it is just as stupid if not more and costs more for something less people will probably see.

If people want to pay for avatar clothes then let them but I'm more interested in the ability to unlock avatar clothes with achievements. I don't know why they didn't do that from day one. The rating system will be good although I won't be trusting it entirely. Generally speaking though, if everyone gives a game 1 star then it's probably not worth your money. I couldn't care less about the twitter or facebook things.

I will never pay to clothe my avatar, they can't charge you for what you already have and I'm happy with my current avatar so that shouldn't be a problem. This really does look like another excuse to drain money from the general populace.

PS3 owners will be howling with laughter right now, as they still have totally free online play as far as I know..
yeah but they still have to pay for stuff in HOME

Yep, both companies make you pay out the ass for something or another, it's just whether you choose online or offline to pay for really. But this seems..unjustifiable..even for Microsoft. 80MS points for a pixel hat?!

Well I'm in the UK preview and I can say its a good update - if only because the dashboard is now quicker and easier to use. The avatar clothing options are limited but interesting and the rating system pretty pointless. The "hidden" updates to the dash are extremely useful however.
