Painspike armor from Fallout 3, Elika from Prince of Persia, MJOLNIR armor, etc.

I still think a very cool thing would be a correlation between certain achievements and clothing, so for example in Fallout3 if you get some difficult achievement you can unlock some armor from the game.

How long before this grace period is over for free clothes? I give them 2 more releases and then it's time for MS Points to come into play.

I'll get them anyways. I love the new avatars

I don't really care for this kind of thing, but it's kind of cool that they're releasing all this stuff for free.

I was seriously expecting to get nickel and dimed for every hat or pair of gloves.
