&lt;p&gt;It&amp;#39;s called protesting. &amp;nbsp;I don&amp;#39;t like the fact that these avatars were forced on us. &amp;nbsp;They&amp;#39;re unnecessary and childish and the adults shouldn&amp;#39;t be forced to use them if they don&amp;#39;t want to.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Anyone who actually likes them and wants to use them, more power to them. &amp;nbsp;I&amp;#39;m not hear to judge, but I would have really liked an option to completely opt out of using/seeing them.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If avatars bother you so much that you would decide against buying a game you otherwise might consider, you really, really need to get those priorities straight. You don&amp;#39;t have to like avatars, but what you&amp;#39;re doing is just childish and silly.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you like the game, then get over yourself and buy it, or stop whining about the avatars.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Nope. &amp;nbsp;I&amp;#39;m actually pretty happy with my life, but thanks for commenting.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Your life must be pretty sad if the avatar bothers you that much.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Thanks for the info. &amp;nbsp;I may actually try it out then.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;@Whetzel&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;you&amp;#39;re not forced to use your avatar in this game, sure there is a option to play a avatar game mode, you dont need to play it for any achievements. And from what I have noticed, there isnt a game mode where there are avatars and madballs mixed.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://majornelson.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=434149" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item><item><title>re: Arcade: Madballs in… Babo: Invasion</title><link>http://majornelson.com/archive/2009/07/15/arcade-madballs-in-babo-invasion.aspx#434121</link><pubDate>Wed, 15 Jul 2009 20:02:14 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">055c7c12-9f8e-4800-85f1-aebaf66ea7d8:434121</guid><dc:creator>Whetzel</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#39;m probably NOT going to buy this game for the simple fact it uses you avatar.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#39;ve been asking for an option to completely disable theses stupid things since the launch of the NXE, but instead of giving us that option they start forcing us to use them in games too.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And what&amp;#39;s worse is one of my favorite games is going to use them too. &amp;nbsp;Guitar Hero 5.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#39;m sorry, but I really hate these avatars (have since day one) and I&amp;#39;ll probably always hate them. &amp;nbsp;It might have been different if they weren&amp;#39;t FORCED on us, but we didn&amp;#39;t have a choice in the matter. &amp;nbsp;I would have also been different if my 360 would have been like this when I bought it, but it wasn&amp;#39;t.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If I knew I was just going to end up with a Wii I would have just bought a Wii and saved myself some money.&lt;/p&gt;
