Avatar Marketplace Sneak Peek

So, they have not told us what will be available for the avatar market place but here is a small sneak peek for all you people.

The Avatar

The Props

Discuss. For me, i think Avatars now are more cooler, better and has a more better meaning for them.

pretty cool, when is this happening.

I think they already post the price. The interactive toys like Halo Warhog is about 400 MS Points. The cloths are cheaper, like 125MS Points or something. magicalclick

I'm all for it. The Master Chief suit looks cool, but when every other avatar on XBL is wearing the same suit...well you're just not "special" anymore.:P

I guess there's a lot of people willing to pay for that but I sure as hell wouldn't. I like the idea of unlocking them as part of achievement awards but not for real money.

I much prefer it to be based off of achievments purely than MS points.

For every person that doesn't buy something, someone else will. And that's what they're counting on. :)

That's neat.

Not sure about that but i could tell you that you'll be able to gain clothes/props and such by gaining achievements so now, gaining achievements has a bigger meaning to it then just bragging rights.

Yeah, your Avatar can do your bragging for you.

Finally they do this :D It's a good idea and I'm excited, hell I'll even pay for something cool like once or twice a year, because you know they will put cool things in there.

Master Chief's suit, the GeOW chainsaw I'm sure, and more random stuff like that..

Oh, btw, that Halo 3 shirt I own in real life 0.o lol.

But I do hope many developers do the achievement thing. That's the best part of this whole deal :D Make the chainsaw an item you can only get for getting Seriously 2.0! Haha that would be braggable.

this looks really cool:):):):)

That's neat.

just give me some saiyan armor and i'll be happy

The fact that they would sell any virtual avatar clothing/items for MS points sickens me. I, of course, would never buy any of it, but I know a lot of people will.

On the other hand, I think the achievement point system is a good idea. If some items are only buyable with MS points then it will pretty much ruin that though. Everything that they would of just given us in a update will go to the marketplace for achievement points, and everything that people will actually want will cost MS points. Oh well, I never liked this whole avatar thing anyway.

NHL, NFL, MLB, and NBA Jerseys would be sick!

I'd plop down a dollar or so if I could buy a racing outfit for my avatar.

I'm all for it. The Master Chief suit looks cool, but when every other avatar on XBL is wearing the same suit...well you're just not "special" anymore.:P

That an ODST.

I want a Master Chief suit. I'll even buy one if I have to, but I would prefer it to be something along the lines of getting the achievement for beating Halo 3 on Legendary.

[QUOTE="XxSTILL_BORNxX"][QUOTE="Tjeremiah1988"]Are they going to be free because no way im paying?Tjeremiah1988

Even so, some things will likely cost money. If you have a PS3 you should know about the prices for things in Home, it's pretty funny. You want to look like Chris or Sheva in Resident Evil 5? Well that will be $1 for gloves, $2 for pants, $2 for the vest, $1 for a hat. Pretty bad, hopefully if things are priced the prices are a little more fair.

Wonder if the achievement thing will be done for older games or if it is just for newer.

i think that wasa racist remark haha, but i would like it if you could spend your gamerscore on items or unlock them with acheivements. You could have an overall gamerscore and then how much gamerscore is left over from what you've spent.

[QUOTE="Tjeremiah1988"]Are they going to be free because no way im paying?XxSTILL_BORNxX

I'd rather them cost, that way if i actually wanted my avatar to look good, i could make it unique, and not like what every other Tom, Dick and Harry has.

i hope u cn download a lancer for ur avatar and his taunt could b revving up the chainsaw

QFT.

that is so badass. and if achievements = unlocking items? fianlly! that makes it even better. but it will have to be a pretty wicked item for me to pay for it

To have these free would be stupid, perhaps the acheivment would work, but they'd be losing loads of money if they didn't at least make them cost money at first to get at least some cash flow from this. Then maybe they'll go on sale or something.
