Unlocking Xbox Achievements may soon get you free MSP

4.5
If you are what's commonly referred to as an "Achievements Whore", you may soon have a real incentive to rake in those Xbox Gamerscore points besides feeling good about yourself on Xbox forums.

Microsoft has teased that it will soon be offering new 'rewards' based on the unlocking of Achievements in Xbox 360 games.
The announcement came from the official Twitter feed of the Xbox Live Rewards website, which teased, "Coming Fall: a new way to earn Rewards based on your Achievements!"

Further prying for details was dismissed by the MS rep, but those familiar with the Xbox Live Rewards site will know that it's a loyalty program that offers free Microsoft Points as rewards for completing specific and varying tasks.

That considered, we expect some Achievement-related MS Point rewards coming this Autumn. And that sounds pretty good to us.

Remember way back when you used your gamerscore to buy items.

Good times, good times.

It would be so good if that would happen.

It would be nice if they do it counting the achievements you already have or are they going to do it just based on the ones you get after they do this.

I have over 16,000G legit! Will I get rewarded for this or only for what I do after the scheme has been released? This is a great idea!

I've never quite been into getting the achievements, but this is a good incentive :)

They need to make an autodetector to see if someone gets achievements too fast.

Otherwise, free MSP to modders
