Avatars are some sexy beasts. I've got mine decked out in nerd chic right now, but I'm thinking about switching over to some nice summer duds. It's these important decisions that make life worth living, really. The clothes I really want my Avatar to wear though are the ones that show my gamer pride. Like, if I was a big Halo fan I'd want some Halo shirts, shoes, pants and a Master Chief helmet. While the latter may never come the rest are already around, you just have to be a Microsoft employee to have them.
Halo clothes have been spotted around Live on Microsoft employees' Avatars (like Randy No Arms above) and include some pretty shnazzy looking outfits, including a badass hat with a UNSC symbol on it. It's not clear if this is part of the Avatar reward system beta or the Avatar marketplace or possibly both. All I know is that once gaming oriented clothing goes down you won't find me in anything but Hannah Montana The Movie: The Game shirts.

That is possibly the greatest opening sentence to an article ever.
When will appear the Avatar Plastic Surgery Market?
We NEED more Avatar boobies, or life will lose it's value.
It'll come. Microsoft showed off full Spartan armor on an avatar at E3. It was in one of those little "Live Experience Theaters".
