When you update your Xbox this November 19th, but you don't want to have an avatar, because little cartoon representations of yourself are for babbies, you're out of luck. You will be required to choose an avatar.


I can't wait for the new update, or the Avatar, but clearly some people don't want the avatar. But hey? Atleast its a new feature

Dude, Gamerpics are still there. the avatar only represents you on the dashboard and in some games. Gamercards and all that will still use Gamerpics.

Unless you use a picture of your avatar as a gamerpic...

Oh, let me clarify this. You CAN use your Gamerpic that you downloaded; But you can also use your Avatars face as your gamerpic also. Your choice, really.

Also, old or not, your backrounds that you downloaded will work on the new xbox live experience also.

At first I was groaning at the update, avatars psshhh. But now I'm excited, mainly because achievements will unlock you new clothing, or at least that's the rumor.

Ug, I don't want to wait for the update.

M'aiq stated earlier that gamerpics are still there. The avatars are only used on the dashboard and in the avatar-compatable games.
