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.

This would be awesome... 10 MSP per achievement or something, it'd add up real quick.

I think they have to count previously earned gamerscore
because there are many people that had their accounts for over 5 years. They have been getting gamerscore for a long time and they have to be awarded for their hard work.

Innovations We won't get loads per achievement maybe for a 10g maybe 1-3 msp but like 50g about 10 or something like that but i think this is a good idea i don't think gamerscore shows much + it can be good for the sellers as more people would be buying more games for the msp but i hope this happens.


I think so too, they just need to ban the previous gamerscore modders.

Racist What if you modded your gamerscore, infinite points!


Its probably a ban for market place fraud.


yeah that or they just ban everyone who has done it already and if you think about you have to re-earn it better of making a new acount
