Xbox 360 gamers may be getting their own virtual characters this holiday. A leaked image (below), shows Xbox 360 “Avatars.” Wii games have user created “Miis” and PLAYSTATION 3 gamers will soon be able to make their avatars in “Home.” The Xbox 360 was the only gaming system missing their own virtual user creation system. Looks like things may be changing soon with Avatars. The leak comes from an image taken from a marketing website, found and posted at NeoGAF.
As the image found in the leak says:
“Avatars” are digital personas available this holiday for all Xbox LIVE connected members and this spring for all new console owners. “Avatars” will be used in place of the gamer picture you have today and give you a much more lifelike, animated, and fully customizable persona for you to reflect who you are online.”
There’s not too many details on how it will look on the Xbox 360 Dashboard or how/if it will be applied in any games. A rumor for now, but this may be one of the features shown at the E3 Media & Business Summit or before the next Xbox 360 Dashbaord update.
