I wonder what game will be next to announce xbox avatar awards.
We have also just announced our new Xbox News website over at www.XboxArcadeLive.com
After Splosion Man announced their Avatar Awards many people where unsure if they would start and end with that game, or if other developers would embrace the Xbox Avatar awards and they would start popping up everywhere. We personally had hoped for the latter – which appears to be true!!
The latest batch of Xbox Avatar Awards is from Halo ODST. You can see a complete list of them, along with how to unlock them below:
[Male] ODST Helmet – Unlocked Halo 3: ODST’s Campaign Complete Achievement
[Female] ODST Helmet – Unlocked Halo 3: ODST’s Campaign Complete Achievement
[Male] ODST Hoodie – Unlocked Halo 3: ODST’s Dark Times Achievement
[Female] ODST Hoodie – Unlocked Halo 3: ODST’s Dark Times Achievement

[Male] ODST Armor – Unlocked Halo 3: ODST’s Good Samaritan Achievement

Thanks to LORD RO8 from the forums for poining out the Halo ODST avatar awards.
So, Halo Waypoint has been released, and with it quite a few new Xbox Avatar Awards including:
Halo Waypoint Monitor - This is unlocked as soon as you start Halo Waypoint

It looks like we Xbox Avatar Awards may soon start flooding it – and we can eventually finish the Xbox Avatar Award Guide!
Thanks to Blackcat13 and Psych0 Mantis 6 in the forums for pointing this out.
Its Official, XBOX AVATAR AWARDS ARE NOW AVAILABLE! Twisted Pixel, the developer of Splosion Man has announced an update for the game which fixes a problem with lag during online multiplayer and also officially released the unlockable xbox avatar awards!
You can view the Splosion Man Xbox Avatar Awards here, and also see how to unlock them.
Rob Bowling from Infinity Ward, the makers of Modern Warfare 2 has confirmed that there WILL be some Modern Warfare Avatar items. In one of his tweets, he announced, “Not sure we’ll be doing any Avatar rewards, but we are making avatar items. With some free ones hopefully.”
So it doesnt look like we will be getting any Xbox Avatar Awards, but instead be given the items for FREE!!! Lets just hope they dont go back on it and try and charge us.
Call Of Duty Modern Warfare 2 is due out on the 10th November – I guess we will have to wait and see…
Ok, so not exactely an Xbox Avatar Award, but its free so I’m classing it as one.
Certain copies of the new Beatles Rock Band have been labelled with “Free The Beatles Rock Band Shirt” stickers. Now the label looks like you get an actual free shirt, but read on, you dont, you get an xbox avatar award!
This is the first time (that we are aware of), that xbox avatar kit has been given away with games, although, hopefully others will follow and we will get more Xbox Avatar Awards just by buying games! Lets just hope the labels on the cases are a bit clearer next time, rather than trying to trick you into thinking its a real shirt.
I wonder if you can unlock xbox avatar awards in the game as well?
New Halo Waypoint Avatar Award
January 8th, 2010
Its really not that easy though! To reach level you must unlock EVERY achievment across all 3 Halo games.
Thanks to Mini AKA47 for highlighting this.
