Let the whoring commence! As expected, Microsoft will soon be seeing just how much mileage can be had from avatars by unleashing new downloadable clothing. According to Xbox Live product unit manager Jerry Johnson, the next half a year will see perpetual clothing releases. MS points at the ready!
“We’re going to be continually releasing and unlocking clothes for the next six months,” confirms Johnson. “They’ll be coming out in theme packs.”
Johnson did not confirm whether or not we’ll be expected to pay, but if you believe MS will continue to give away free stuff for this new endeavor, then you’ve probably answered a few emails from Nigeria.
Would you pay to give your avatar a new bobblehat? How cheap would avatar clothes have to be before you’d consider shelling out your precious Microsoft Monopoly money? Tell us.
