One of the more disputed features of the new Xbox360 experience is the addition of Avatars. Some see it as an important step forward, others see it as a copy of a Wii feature, still others see it as an added cuteness that was unneeded.

I must say, its more than I thought it would be. I thought it would be a cheap knockoff of The Sims + Mii, but it really looks like it has been well thought out. There are so many options, more than either mixed, and some unique customization, such as gloves and rings, are included.

I don’t know what the stars on features are, but perhaps this means that these are newly downloaded/added features. If it is such a system, i wonder if its pushed [1. By pushed, i mean automatically recieved], or the user still has to download it.
