As if the new OS was not controversial enough, Microsoft Corporate VP John Schappert says that there may be micro-transactions coming for the Mii-like format of the new OS. No real surprise here, folks, we just have confirmation now.

I don't like that avatar bullsh!t anyways good thing they say you can use the original settings. I'm already used to it.. the thing that interest me is the tv game like feature where its up to a 100 participants.. now that something social that sony doesn't have..

dudeman: Once again playing games online and Avatars are optional. Nobody is making 360 owners pay for anything.

Lets see what kind of tune your singing if and when Home gets here. I'm thinking some time this decade would be nice...

Lets not even get me going on what Sony charged it's loyal customers when the PS3 first launched.

PimpDaddy is 100% correct.

NOBODY is being forced to pay for anything!

EVERYBODY has an OPTION of what to use. I like the idea of using the Mii stuff, but not enough to pay any amount for it. Plus, I like the current themes that I already have. I have an AWESOME one from Mass Effect.

...Also, dudeman, I suggest you keep your socks clean and buy some steak sauce, cuz you're gonna NEED a LOT of it in five or six years when HOME is released for the Playstation 3...cuz HOME is going to COST MONEY and you are going to have your foot stuck in your mouth!

WOW. BlackTiger spammed 4 different articles with the same comment. WTF??? This is BS.

It's official the moderators have lost control of this site.

GAMEPRO:

Only after the PlayStation 3 version is completed will the team work on the Xbox 360 version.
