Would not that float the boat? It's not even that hard. Just put out a bunch of team-specific avatars out there on PSN and people will buy it.
Why am I not a marketing person?

Hopefully this will become available.
I suppose it comes down to if SL decides to product them.
I was surprised at the LBP ones appearing at the store.
How were you possibly surprised?
Because there was no previous mention of them arriving at any of the LBP forums.
where does the PS3 have avatars?
And what happened to the WOHD premium/dynamic XMB themes? have they ever produced any? I thought I saw screenshots of some a while back
You can't get them by going on the US channel.
oh, bummer; but how do I pay for things if I use a non-US account?
@agwolf:
u can make a 2nd account (f.e. uk) and buy a PSN-card via ebay
@ topic:
i would buy every premium-avatar of wipEout, if the price is not higher than 0.25euro
Ah, I see what you mean. But they do squeeze every ounce out of that sackboy, don't they? Every single thing has some kind of tie-in with LBP. From a business perspective I wonder if that is due to effort by Sony or Media Molecule.Quote:

@JFthebestJan: Well, yeah, if they're just going to copy and paste the icons from the game into an avatar template, that is probably what they are worth. If they take some time with it, and do something creative, like maybe add a specular glow here and there, or apply a gaussian filter, then I may pay a dollar.
However, I'm not sure that 0.25 will be worth it for them simply in terms of covering the costs of the payment gateway, but then again I'm not privy to any knowledge on that.
this is something i thought myself in the past...
nice idea but i dont see it coming...
the reason? Sony is is lazy. really sometimes you think they just dont want to make a profit!(except accessories-ps2 multitap,ps3 hdmi anyone? lol)
1)think about how many ps1 classic games still arent up to playstation store...
2)they made avatars for lbp(one of the popular games) so i doubt they would bother make wipeout avatars...its so simple but they just dont care.
3)one other thing they could do and make a fortune is charging lets say 5 euro to change your ps id... i smell cash here but sony dont...
i am a loyal Sony customer but sometimes their marketing just sucks...
Well since Studio Liverpool has just gone belly up I'd say it's a definite NO
