    Alrighty...time to take the Lost & the Damned outfits, merge them with the Pirate outfits, and create a look that would make the Village People blush.

    Why is it that the avatar in the original Capcom article looks nothing at all like a pirate?

    @Gorilla Snow is hot for Snorlax: Thanks for clearing that up. I was thinking it was just terrible advertising on their part, but once again I am wrong.

    Age of Booty is actually a very enjoyable and intuitive little strategy game. Particularly with human players using tactics.


    It has a quaint charm about it.

    I would really like to see a poll somewhere that asked how many gamers actually tend to their avatars, buy new clothing packs, or even change them up.


    I couldn't tell you what my avatar even looks like right now. I spent the required 4 minutes setting it up with the NXE Dashboard update, and haven't looked at mine or any of my friends since.


    I would rather throw my xbox in the trash than spend a penny on clothing packs for my avatar, regardless of what the packs are.


    Now, if the day comes that your avatar can be used in ANY game, I might look into it, but that won't happen.

    @Capp: Though I'm not sure how many people would buy clothing packs, I know plenty who like to change up their avatar very frequently. It's not completely worthless, but it's next to it.

    @Capp: well then mr. uninformed it seems you dont play arcade games because on some arcade games probably *5-7 games, you can use your avatars. best one being bomberman. also im the same on 4 minute setup for avatars, i just randomized and got mine, was way more interested in the netflix and party chat to care for avatars.

    @Milkzhakes - got a PS3 with his tax return *seems pleased: Nah, the best one is Kingdom for Keflings since your playable character is your actual avatar. I really was hoping Bomberman Live would have incorporated avatars similarly, replacing the costumed Bomberpeople with the individual avatars, but they're just another "personalized" victory screen. :/

    Great, now my avatar will be an overmarketed piece of crap that spouts one-liners every second he's on screen.

    Every lad likes a wee bit of the ale and a slice of the booty, always the ne'er do'wells scurrying about like scurvy dogs, ruinin' this ol'pirate's fun times. Spoutin' offa the lip about overmarketed crap, going all "Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum." before I make'im walk the plank.

    Aye, shut yer trap Polly, we bein' late fer the keg opening.

    Hopefully this will encourage people to actually play this game. I wanted to DL it forever, finally did, and can't find anyone to play online with. :*(

    Age of Booty is a funny title for a game. Imagine a dating sim called Age of Booty Call. Now that would be a fucking awesome game! :D
