OXM: Will You Use Avatar Kinect?

While details of what Avatar Kinect actually is are slim on the ground, OXM does know that the upcoming service will be a way to socialise and interact with your friends on Xbox Live using Kinect.

I'll just use the video chat on my PS3 thanks.

Godmars2904889d ago

Or better yet, the one that's already on the 360.

Speaking of which, does this mean that they're going to kill the planned video conferencing they were showing off before this?

SeNiLesBack4889d ago

Planned? It's already available http://www.xbox.com/en-US/l...

They won't kill it, it totally different. You can video chat with people on Xbox Live or those who aren’t on Xbox LIVE but on a PC.

Could this at least add an option to kill the avatar section from the interface ?

mastiffchild4889d ago

I'll be honest, if it did it would go na long, long way to making me game more ion my 360. I just wish they'd let me choose to erase all memory of their avatars(and esp the one they made me make for myself -I hated feeling like I was dressing a virtual, camp dolly-and all for no reason too)and I'd be totally back on board with MS!

Seriously, I despise those effin things and having to be reminded of making mine every time I turn on the 360 leaves a bad, bad taste.

That has got to be the dumbest reason I have heard for someone hating on XBL. It is an avatar that you never have to use for anything that you don't want to. The only time you have to see it (GASP) is when you turn on the XBOX. Lame, but to each his own I guess.

Inversion truly is the red-headed stepchild of the year. If they would have made better design choices in development, i would have played it to the end. But having to repeat the same annoying boss fight less than an hour after the first one sucked every ounce of motivation out of the game for me. I'm talking to you Slave Driver.
