You've had the New Xbox Experience for less than a week now, but we know how you operate. We know that most of you are like sharks who must constantly move towards the next tech stimulation to avoid dying. Luckily, Xbox 360 Fanboy has your back, providing fun tricks you and your avatar can do together.
So, if you want to teach the miniature version of yourself to spin wildly, you're only one click away. If you need to learn how to spin wildly yourself, you're probably reading the wrong blog.

Indeed...mine looks pretty close to me in real life, and was just put together as a joke...now I get a kick out of scrolling through friends' profiles and judging whether or not they look like their real-world counterparts.

Same here, stupid bastards are cute. >:( Suprisingly, they can really capture your look. Just need more color and clothes options.

Isn't there an option to the far right of the Spotlight portion that lets you remove it? Or am I just crazy?

I think that option is only for the Welcome channel (are we calling them 'channels' now?) I really find the Spotlight/Events/and Inside Xbox channels redundant, couldn't they just put all that info into one channel?

the Spotlight, Events, and Inside Xbox Channels are the MOST annoying part of the NXE. overall i love the features of it but the redundancy and annoyance of those 3 ad channels almost negate all the good stuff. i just wish i could turn them off!

Just don't wear pants. It's much more comfortable, and you don't have to worry whether or not they match.

I wish there was a way to stop the 360 from asking me if I want to make one when I clearly don't want to.

Idk why, but when the NXE came out last week, a lot of my friends that I know are white had black avatars. Either they want to be black, or they're just racist. or weird.

Is it possible to make avatar character to stand straight? (Dunno proper Engrish) Or change the pose?
Because the pose (with one leg to side) which is taken by something like 100% of avatars becomes quite annoying and irritating to my eyes.
Even Miis can stand straight. I can't believe that MSFT overlooked that.
P.S. Any bets when the hype over the avatars would go down?

I still hate my Avatar and the whole of the NXE. I want the old dashboard back. Stupid Microsoft.
