How Much Will Microsoft Charge for Avatar Customization?

Avatars were announced today, even though everyone pretty knew they were coming. You'll be out to customize your look online with clothes and accessories after you make it look like yourself as best as possible. But just how much is this going to cost?

My guess would be like 100 MS points for an outfit or maybe a set of outfits. Wuld be cool if you get special shirts for buying certain games, like a Gear t-shirt when u get Gears 2.

drunkpandas6182d ago

Yeah, that would be cool to get a Gears shirt. Definitely a good idea. With the way it looked in the video, you'll be able to customize everything separately. Hopefully it doesn't end up at buying shoes for Microsoft Points

QueefyB6182d ago

i said this before today look at my comment page they will charge a monthly subscription for customizing the avatar

taz80806182d ago

yeah i can see them charging MS points for a sombrero.

Pain6182d ago

How lame..but then again its M$.

falviousuk6182d ago (Edited 6182d ago )

just like Sony will charge you for a new couch in HOME. how lame is $ONY

taz80806182d ago

Cant assume its free. Something tells me we will pay top dollar to make our avatars look like us.

iceice1236182d ago

This is just another desperate attempt by Loot-Ninja for site hits. There's no reason to think they'll charge for this.

El_Colombiano6182d ago

No reason! Buddy, you MUST be joking! This is Microsoft we are talking about! They charge you for JPEGs!!!

GotAmmo6182d ago

looks like my avatar is gonna have to be in boxers for awhile cause theres just too many games coming out LOL.

falviousuk6182d ago

Of course we will pay. it will come with a set of customisations for free with tons more to buy.
Just like home will come with a basic set of stuff to populate your living space with more luxurious living spaces and items to furnish it with costing real money to buy from PSN.
they are no different. they are in it to make money. If you dont like it dont buy the extra content.

256182d ago

if home is free, which is an interactive world, then that sucks if ms can't even give away a few avatars.

So first they copy the Miis, then you have to pay for them? Nice.

I hope it's a remake of the 1st game. But it's probably just the PS5 version of Red Dead Redemption 2

OtterX14h ago

I hope a PS5 upgrade launches on the same day as announcement & it costs no more than $10. I already bought the Ultimate Edition once, they got good money from me.

I stopped playing completely 2 years ago until they did 60fps. I really didn't expect it would take this long & I didn't want to start completely over on PC.

dmonee3h ago

My wish is that its optimized for current gen machines, with some sort of story expansion. Undead nightmare 2! My 2nd wish is that it just shadow drops on the day of the announcement!.

Lionsguard3h ago

Give me my RDR2 Undead Nightmare already.

The Evil Within Deserved More: A Great Horror Series Left Behind

The Outerhaven writes: While I hold Bethesda's The Evil Within series as some of the best Survival Horror games available, it's clear that Bethesda has no intention of revisiting the series. While Capcom is still working on its Resident Evil series, I look back at the now-dead survival horror series from Bethesda, wondering why the series was left wide open, and yet still not revisited.

An OK horror series left behind. It had some great ideas, but it never knew how to play to its strengths. Instead, it came out like just another RE4 clone.

I would love for a third entry to come out, but it needs to learn to lean in on the psychological aspect and move away from the generic "pew pew" ideology at the center of the gameplay loop. It doesn't need to abandon it; it just needs to put it into better context, is all.

Also, try a first-person perspective instead. Too many 3rd-person games with nothing to offer but an avatar taking precious screen space. At least make it an actual option and not that janky-ass mess the second game pretended to have.

Venoxn4g1d 13h ago

Love both games, hope that we will get third game

gold_drake1d 5h ago (Edited 1d 5h ago )

i really didnt like the 2nd game.

first game was fantastic
