Man creates NXE Avatar in video

can’t wait!!!!

Where were those little bits of speech in the background coming from? Not from the avatar-creation thing, surely?

Needs clothing colour options… but other than that it seemed to be quite good.

Woah… I only just noticed the new advertising in the background of the site. lol

High impact marketing, clearly

I was using a different browser… so I actually saw it. I must admit that I turned off your background ad when you started running that far cry 2 one.

yeah i’m stoked for it.
from what i have heard you will be able to buy items and also (more excitingly) discover different clothes and styles within certain games. for example, if you finish fable 2 you would win a shirt or something (in theory…it hasn’t happened yet). i think it will be fun.

“from what i have heard you will be able to buy items”

EA are stupid for selling cosmetic changes, huh?

These don’t seem necessary yet, thank goodness. I’ve been testing the NXE and I haven’t been forced to immediately utilise them. I haven’t logged into Live yet, however. I’m perturbed by the probability of having these damned things forced upon me the moment I log in to Live.

Still, these Playmobil People seem to be exciting to the general populace at least. What’s this World coming to? Other than a grinding halt, under its own weight and empowered by the tedium of the masses.

/mutter /grumble /etc

Sorry, someone has to offset the YAYHAPPYFACE responses to this tremendously unimaginative pap. It’s a bloody affront to creativity.

If they’d actually tried to do something marginally original with this, instead of just Miis and more mainstream nonsense, then I wouldn’t be complaining. The Spore Creature Creator was casual and mainstream, but even that was more creative than this, by magnitudes.

I just wish they’d tried something at least a little bit new. It’s so… staid.
