Xbox 360 owners, calm your fears. Soon, your Xbox 360 Avatar will reflect your passion for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, says Infinity Ward creative strategist Robert Bowling. I know, it was touch and go there for a minute.

Bowling said via his Twitter feed this weekend that he's "not sure we'll be doing any Avatar rewards, but we are making avatar items. With some free ones hopefully." Free ones!! That's the kind of Avatar thing I can see myself investing the time to download. Too bad (potentially) about the lack of Avatar rewards, as that's a nice little perk for the serious fan.
