Another ‘celebrity’ xbox avatar for you today. While not strictly a celebrity, he is a huge historical figure, and with the new Inglorouis Bastards film about Nazi Germany out now I thought this might be quite a good one to put on here.

Im sure that if Hitler had of won the war that none of us would be sat around creating xbox avatars all day, or killing the Germans on Call Of Duty but he didn’t win, we won (as we always do), so we are free to do whatever we like (as long as the government says its ok, of course!)

Enough of a rant, on with the hitler xbox avatar tutorial…

Another celebrity xbox avatar for you to have a play around with today.

Today we will show you how to make your very own Michael Jackson Xbox Avatar.

This one doesnt look as close to the real life legend as we had originally hoped, but its as close as we could find. Unfortunately you cant give him a glove on one hand, but other than that the clothing is pretty accurate.

Now Michael Jackson has died many people (mainly the mentally unhinged, and his family) will miss him. Well now you can have your very own Michael Jackson, locked up inside your xbox so you can see him whenever you want. Unfortunately we cant make him sing Billy Jean, but you can make him do all the other crazy things we told you about in the Xbox Avatar Cheats, Tips & Hidden Secrets post

Have fun making your Michael Jackson Xbox Avatar!

I have had a few people email me recently asking how they can get Xbox Avatar clothing and props for free. Firstly I have pointed them to the Xbox Avatar Awards section of the site, assuming that they meant how can they unlock the Xbox Avatar clothing.

However on all occassions except one, they have then replied asking how they can get the paid Xbox avatar clothing for free. Now, if you look around the net, you can find several tutorials and video guides on how to unlock the paid items for free, however I would not recommend that anyone use any of these guides.

Firstly the guides were written before the last Xbox live update which will have almost certainly fixed it. Even if it hasnt been fixed, Microsoft keep a record of all your online purchases, so what do you think they are going to do when they see you have bought no Xbox Avatar clothing, yet your avatar has every piece of clothing…you guessed it…Xbox Live BAN!

Surely the award for most pointless ‘hack’ has to go to the person who discovered how to do this. I mean, what is the point in having an Xbox Avatar, when you cant go on Xbox Live?

as well as this, I know that the Xbox avatar clothing can be very expensive (yes we mean the new items with 240 and 320 point price tags!), but this is probably illegal, and almost certainly against any Microsoft terms and conditions!

Like I said, I do not recommend this at all. Please just stick to unlocking the Xbox Avatar Awards to get your free items, or if you are desperate enough, then go ahead and hand over your Xbox points.

Also, for those that are interested, we have just started a new Xbox Controller Mod website.

The next celebrity up doesnt really belong on the Xbox, but it seems like that hasn’t stopped anyone trying to make there very own Mario Xbox Avatar!

Everybody knows Mario from the Nintendo video games, dating right back to 1981 when he first appeared being chased by Donkey Kong, right through to the “New Super Mario” and “Mario & Sonic At The Olympics”.  As long as games consoles have had control pads, Mario has been trying to save the day!

And now, 28 years after his console debut, you can have your very own Mario Xbox Avatar!

The video guide to create the Mario Xbox Avatar is below…

No games for your avatar yet, but we do have Xbox avatar cheats, tips and hidden secrets.

Now you might wonder what sort of xbox avatar cheats we could possibly have, especially when there are no xbox avatar games yet.

Well there are a few secrets and xbox avatar tips at the minute which can give you a bit of fun messing around with your avatar.

Firstly, you can unlock a massive selection of coloured funky hair for your avatar. To do this you simply need to do is go to the “Change My Features” part of the Avatar customisation section, select the “hairstyles” section in the “My Features area, but DO NOT click on it. Wait for 1 minute, and as if by magic the hairstyles tile will spin around and you will not have loads of new hair colours!
