According to Xbox Australia, NXE Avatarsare rankingamongst the country’s most popular wastes of time. Being “played” more than likes ofGears of War 2andGrand Theft Auto IV, the Avatar Editor would rank at number four on the Xbox Live retail chart if it were a retail game.
Perhaps it’s because Australia has spent so long with neutered or banned games that it’s forgotten what quality software is, but I’m struggling to rationalize the idea of Xbox Avatars getting so much “play” time inanycountry. I think this has more to do with Microsoft forcing you into the Editor when you create a new Xbox profile, which isn’t really worth boasting about.
What do you think? Are Avatars seriously that popular, or is Microsoft beaming for no reason? Also, why are Avatars so rubbish and pointless?
