NXE Avatars receive new formal wear


Like most foppish gamers, we've been politely castigating Microsoft for the improvident dearth of formal Avatar clothing -- so much so that we're inclined to use the words "castigating" and "improvident" in a single sentence. How are we meant to enjoy the NXE when our on-screen representation fails to capture our posh, everyday attire? To think, there are brutish button mashers who venture online wearing naught but jeans and a body rag! To that we say, "Hmph! And good day!"

Thankfully, Microsoft has now recognized the erudite e-citizens of Xbox Live, releasing a new set of Avatar clothes:

Gentlemen

  • Blue Tuxedo

  • Black Tuxedo

  • Shirt with Cummerbund

  • Black Trilby

  • Bowler Hat

Noble Women

  • Elegant Ball Gown

  • Little Black Dress

  • Formal Trouser Suit

  • Elegant Watch

  • Red '60s Shades

  • Strappy High Heels

  • Platform Shoes

You'll find them in the Avatar Customization menu, most likely next to some uncultured "threads."
