These guys look like PS Home avatars, bland and "Realistic" do you think they're leaving the "cute" avatars behind? or leaving avatars as a whole and just using characters?

I guess they want to upgrade everything...

maybe not as "cute" as on the 360 but they certainly aren't as "realistic" (in art style) as psHome. they are certainly on the cartoony side but far more detailed so i don't see it as really leaving the cute behind but trying to differentiate/improve them from the 360.
