Microsoft Makes Avatar Creation Mandatory For New Dashboard


Quote:
Aaron Greenberg, Microsoft’s group product manager for Xbox 360, has revealed that all Xbox owners will be forced to choose/create an avatar once they download and boot up the new dash for the first time.

“We’re forcing you to have a visual representation of yourself,” remarks Greenberg when questioned by the press. “But you can make a pretty badass avatar.”

Greenberg went on to stress that those who are not interested in avatars would able to complete the process in under a minute, and then never have to look at their creation ever again if the so wish. There will even be pre-made choice available if you really don’t care.

At TGS Microsoft confirmed that the new look, feel, and completely new feature filled dashboard will go live on November 19.

This really has no baring on me since I was already planning on making an avatar in the first place.

PS: This is front page material!

See, that's just MS putting a product out to push to parents then saying, "Oops, now you HAVE to spend an extra $100." Talk about shady business...
