This is just a comparison of the original style of Google's Avatars Versus XBL's Avatars, how similar they are visually, and different functionally.
Lively 3D
Lively 3D was first revealed to the would on in July, 08 in working order. Lively had refined look compared to XBL avatars, yet retained the simplistic look of stylized avatars. In function, however, Lively 3D worked more like the Playstation's home than XBL or The Wii's avatars.
The features of Lively include:
- A Lively room can be embedded to any webpage or blog using an iFrame.
- Free accounts, only requiring that you use your Google account.
- Multiple " worlds" like an old western town, super heroes, islands, dancehalls, ect.
- Runs from the browser on your PC.
- Users can watch YouTube videos on Televisions inside rooms.
- Users can hug, shake hands, play games, chat and more

XboX Live Avatars
XboX Live Avatars were leaked on various sites as early as june 08. Visually, XBL avatars are more capable than Mii, yet not as graphically advanced as Lively 3D or home. XBL avatars are arguably the best on consoles being not too plain or complicated. Although deceptively simple in function, XBL avatars are also capable of running the avatars in-game.

Ashes of Creation director Steven Sharif has hit out at alleged "coordinated attacks" against him and his studio, Intrepid Studios, insisting recent claims about the company's finances were "completely false and already faltering under judicial review," and calling the drama "one of the craziest stories gaming has ever seen."
The "2026 WORLD BASEBALL CLASSIC™" mode is also included! Samurai Japan, as well as the Venezuelan and American national teams that fought fierce battles, will appear with their real names.
The Battlefield 6 roadmap for 2026 has been revealed, and it confirms a server browser is on the way alongside naval warfare and more.
Until they add bigger maps to modes other that their garbage br, im not reinstalling that, they just blatantly misled a lot of people leading up to release. And still refuse just add bigger maps which people have asked for since the beta fk EA!
Lively to be discontinued from December 31st, 2008
like I said before.
Remember when Google was a search engine?
