Microsoft's prototype avatar looks and talks like you

Well imagine playing say Skyrim or however it is spelt and instead of using a customised face you could put your own face in the game?! That'd be killer for RPG games especially. I think this is extremely interesting tech, a lot of what Microsoft does with games applies to all games which is why I like their pure research approach.

I do think Avatar chat will be popular to be honest. Just a feeling with the number of people who have webcams but never use them because they don't want to show their faces.

Yeah you have a good point with RPG's they are gonna be the killer app for this tech... maybe dancing games coz then it replays and you look like a fool haha.

Avatar chat... see this is the issue with Aus/NZ I dunno if we are gonna get this the same way as the US
