Avatar Droppings

This is the official description of this indie title by the name of Avatar Drop. Now, from that description it sounds like Xbox Live has found it’s equivalent to Playstation favorite, “Pain.” That’s the initial thought behind upon booting up the title. Upon further review however, what you might actually be getting is a very quick and midly interesting activity that’ll be fun for all of 10 minutes or so.

You guide your avatar through descent past bouncy balloons and through rings with different point values to increase your score. And that's about it. The multiplayer element is identical to the single player element, albeit with simply several other people. This is a very run of the mill ragdoll title, and for 80 MS Points maybe that’s all you should expect. However, when better versions of the same game can be found all over the internet for free - then it may be time to expect something more out of what you pay for, even if it is dirt cheap.

I’m still waiting for the side splitting hilarity

Oh wait – I get it… The joke’s on me. Well played Microsoft. Well played.
