Leak: Microsoft avatars, the answer to Nintendo Miis
On Sunday, the good old members of Xbox 360 Fanboy and NeoGAF ’s forums found a login-protected website for the marketing and research company Illtellisponse. The website featured a security hole that allowed the forum members to dig in. The members were able to get into the site and take a look around at some top-secret documents, revealing a VERY large amount of new information on Microsoft and Activision products.
Do remember: Intellisponse is a marketing and research company, so it is possible that some, most, or all of the leaked bits are just concepts. There has been no confirmation on any of these leaks just yet.
The first leak of the bunch reveals a feature that Microsoft may be using to counter Nintendo’s Miis. Microsoft simply calls them “avatars.” They are cute, user friendly, and probably replacing Xbox Live gamer pictures. They are fully customizable, as gamers can change any article of clothing and other items, as shown in the above picture provided by Kotaku.
More leaks on the way.
