You ain’t foolin’ no one, Microsoft

Look… me and the McDonald’s people got this little misunderstanding. See, they’re McDonald’s… I’m McDowell’s. They got the Golden Arches, mine is the Golden Arcs. They got the Big Mac, I got the Big Mick. We both got two all-beef patties, special sauce, lettuce, cheese, pickles and onions, but their buns have sesame seeds. My buns have no seeds.

Xbox Experience launched today, and they have these super cute little characters that represent you that you can customize and stuff, which absolutely have no resemblance to the Miis at all. None. It was a totally independent thought process that brought about these characters, a totally different marketing strategy.

They are called Xiis.

Well, not really, but they might as well be. It’s pretty silly. ;) Although, I did have fun making mine, and she wears a pith helmet-type hat, whoo! There isn’t really anything in life that can’t be improved by adding a pith helmet…
