I admit some of the clothing is pretty sweet... But What do you guys think about the prices on some of the accessories??

Meh, it's kinda high on the price. Higher than I'd like it to be but I still dish out a few microsoft points to get a new shirt. I'd rather that they kept all clothing prices bellow 100 microsoft points. I mean, honestly, a an arcade game cost 400. Why would I buy some clothes over an arcade game?

if EVERY item was 50 cents - $1, I think more people would buy the items.

yeah honestly I'd love to have the warthog RC or the mass effect Mako RC car but there's no chance in hell I'm dropping 320 (or around $5) on them. To date I've purchased the halo beret and laser kill medal ring, both because i had some extra points floatin around and they were fairly cheap.

The prices for things like the halloween costumes really drive me insane, they should be 1/4 to 1/2 the price of regular items as you're gonna use those for the season tops, I'm sure some people will keep them year round, but considering they're not even very good, i think it's stupid that they all cost the same or more.

MS would make so so so much more money if they dropped the prices on this stuff.

I wouldn't pay for virtual clothing that you hardly ever see. It is a rip off.

I agree. The only thing I purchased was the eye patch and only because I had 50 MS Points left and I was never going to be able to use them on something. I think 40-80 MS Points on all clothing based items sounds fair and 160 MS Points for props. Unfrotunately, since people are still buying the overpriced items now, I don't think Microsoft would bother lowering the price even though I think they would sell 2x as much avatar gear if they slashed the prices.

You can buy arcade games for 400 msp. That gives you Fun and enjoyment. What does pretend clothing give you ? NOTHING

Buying it for that price its like buying clothes for a barbie doll .At leats the barbie doll is real !

Priced avatar clothes are just pointless It dosen't make your avatar cool.It makes you a 3 year old girl for buying fake dress up clothes !

I really only like the armor stuff like Mass Effects armor or the Carmine armor from Gears of War. I don't have any worldly idea why its taking so long to get Spartan and ODST armor... I mean really, come one Microsoft, People would definitely buy that. I like the Splinter Cell outfits too. Stuff that makes your avatar look like a bad ass version of yourself rather than a horrible little abomination in brand name clothing lol

LOL, never looked at it that way. That does look funny. But anyway the guitar was like 180 and that's all I bought that time. Then I bought 2 more games and had enough fr the hat.

You mean other than the fact that there isn't a free way to get avatar clothes? Also, iPods will always use the same music but once the next xbox comes out most likely all the avatar clothes you paid for will be worthless (most likely, they could just transfer)

I mean it would make more sense to buy real clothes rather than just a file. Why do people buy from iTunes when a CD is the same price?

The convenience of going digital. Personally I haven't bought a cd in years. I see what you're saying tho... They should team with Apple and sell the clothes with iTunes downloads. Genius! jk jk

Exactly, if everything was cheap than everyone would buy it, instead of just a few people.

I still have no idea why anyone would want to pay money for an avatars clothing.What purpose does it serve? Avatars in general are pointless IMO.I disliked them from day one.

Meh I see no reason to buy Avatar clothing. I am going to have around 240 points left over and I was considering buying something off of the Avatar marketplace but then I remembered I can get an Indie game.. So clothes for an avatar I look at once every five months or a game?
