What's _YOUR_ NXE avatar?

http://card.mygamercard.net/nxe/Pyrii.png

Go to http://www.mygamercard.net/ to generate some BBCode to show yours off in this thread (use the NXE theme for the same as above). Can also take a photo from your screen too. Just thought it'd be good to see what people have made with the new system so far.

EDIT: Finlay666 reminded me of the URL direct from Microsoft for showing off your avatar

Code:

[img]http://avatar.xboxlive.com/avatar/MYXBOXLIVEUSERNAME/avatar-body.png[/img]

Just change MYXBOXLIVEUSERNAME with your own username.

They look cool, I'm looking forward to having a play with this.

Are there any restrictions on avatars for non-Xbox-Live gold members? I know the missus is gonna want to have one, but I'm not gonna let her put a girly avatar on my account :P

Re: What's _YOUR_ NXE avatar?

I read an interview on the web stating that MS in Reading is producuing the UK localisation of the NXE? Can you ellobarate further on that? Have you managed to see primetime working?

Because I remember when they updated the old one I used to have some lag issues for a while.

I've not noticed any lag at all. I like the look of the new dash but I think it's going to take a little getting used too.

Not the clothes I would have liked (apart from the gloves :D) but hey.

They did put in a little extra something though. When choosing styles for anything, if you spin them round too much they get dizzy. If you turn their head in a circle repeatedly, their eyes roll :)

Re: What's _YOUR_ NXE avatar?

Apparently over the next 6 months they'll be releasing new clothes and options fortnightly. Not quite sure why they can't release them now...

I had to go through the quick picks a few times to find one I liked. I do like the suits idea, shame you can't do the same with the normal clothes.

But yeah, in the end, lack of choice is the main fault. But they still look better than Miis while feeling the same.
