You programmers out there... you know those features you work on for a few weeks before you can even think about getting them into the game engine? You have to write the framework, build the tools, build the content.... etc. etc. etc. Then you finally get it in... and it is glorious? It is a feature that improves the game's immersion so much and looks so cool that you feel giddy? Yeah, well thats how I feel about AVATAR ANIMATION!

Yes, Unsigned 2.0 will support custom avatars (not so custom for this version, but still a little custom) that respond to you.

In Rock Band and Guitar Hero, the avatars respond to the chart. They strum the note and move their hands based on the note chart. Boooooring! In Unsigned, they respond to your controller input. You play with the frets before the song starts? You see your avatar moving his hand along the neck. You overstrum or hit the drums at the wrong time? Your avatar will too.

I just wish I had an artist to make avatars that dont look like crap. oh well.

One word to sum up this post? "Neato"
