Most of my PSN/PS3 friends have learned that I’m a hardcore PSN avatar junkie. I can’t help it. I just love to decorate my PlayStation Network  ID with the latest and greatest avatars that the PlayStation Network has to offer! When it comes to a great avatar selection, PlayStation doesn’t fall short. In fact you’ll find that they have a unique variety that ranges from old school avatars like C’s Mega Man 10, and Ghouls and Ghosts, to newer avatars from Super Street Fighter IV. Just in the past few months I have amassed a collection of very cool avatars that include characters from the Street Fighter series, and even the Darkstalker series.

If I find a cool avatar I’ll usually purchase it. You can’t beat the $0.49 price tag for a bit of avatar bling to spice up, and personalize your PSN ID. My PSN ID currently sports the Oboro Bishomon avatar from the Darkstalkers series. If you’re into avatars like I am, then you’ll be happy to know the current PSN avatar catalog contains avatars from : Crash Commando, Darkstalkers, Dead Rising 2, Deadliest Warrior, Echochrome, Fat Princess, Final Fight:Double Impact, Flower, Ghouls and Ghosts, Heavy Rain, Kung Fu Rider, Little Big Planet, MAG, Mega Man 10, ModNation Racers, PAIN, Playstation 15th Ann., moon, Sengoku BASARA, Soldier-X 2: Final Prototype, Sports Champions, Street Fighter, Street Fighter Alpha 3, Street Fighter III, Super Street Fighter IV, Top Gun, Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune, and Uncharted 2: Among Thieves.

PlayStation offers discounted avatar bundle packs for certain avatar groups if you are a member of the Playstation Plus program. One such avatar bundle, which I think is the best deal, is the Super Street Fighter IV bundle. It gives you all 35 avatars for the price of $4.99! That is the price if you are a member of PlayStation Plus. Next time you’ve got some extra PSN cash left over, stop by the avatar section of the PSN store to see what I’m talking about.
