Are you upset by the fact that people who see your Xbox Live Avatar don’t immediately know your favorite NBA team? Well, you can rectify that with the new Avatar gear available on Xbox Live, courtesy of NBA 2K10 and NBA Live 10. The subtle difference between each series on offer is that NBA2K10’s set has numbers on ‘em, whereas the NBA Live 10 jerseys only feature team names.
You can snag your own virtual jersey for 240
($3) right now on the Avatar Marketplace.

Dragon Age: Origins may seem expansive enough, but BioWare has already proven willing to inflate the game further with DLC and talk of retail expansion packs. And according to an unidentified retailer listing spotted by Eurogamer.cz, the first of those expansions, titled Awakening, will supposedly arrive in Europe on March 19.
According to Eurogamer’s summary, the expansion will star a new player character with a new origin story, new areas and enemies, for about 15 hours of new content. The expansion will also raise the level cap. Eurogamer speculates that EA will announce this expansion sometime in January, though we can’t fathom how that information would be extrapolated from a retailer’s erroneously hasty listing.

We’ve always assumed that we don’t notice the cold while we’re playing video games because we’re being warmed from within by the light of joy. But Jeff Ramos has dispelled our childish illusions on his blog, cheerfully describing how his Xbox 360 makes a fine space heater that helps to warm up one room of his chilly New York City apartment. Not the most serious reading, but it certainly warms the heart, doesn’t it?
We’ve always thought that the amount of heat put out by the 360 was a bad thing (especially when it melts its own brains from within), but don’t be surprised if crafty console makers spend as much time in the next generation talking about BTUs as GPUs.
