Xbox Live Rewards introduces monthly Play to Earn incentives

4.6
Starting this month, the Xbox Live Rewards program is getting a little more active with Play to Earn incentives. As the name implies, Play to Earn allows Xbox Live Rewards members to earn extra rewards by purchasing and playing games. The month of April is dedicated to Xbox Live Arcade, and several rewards are up for grabs. As you might expect, the best ones require you to pony up a little dough.

Playing 20 hours of XBLA games this month will net Rewards members a free Avatar item, while purchasing four XBLA games costing at least 400 MS Points each will earn a free month of Xbox Live Gold. Finally, members who spend 3200 MS Points on XBLA games will receive 800 MS Points back.

That applies to any XBLA games, though Major Nelson conveniently notes that there are quite a few games coming out this month, including Battleblock Theater, Terraria, Monaco, Double Dragon 2, God Mode, Sacred Citadel and Motocross Madness.

This is quite a good idea as it will simply improve their sales, hopefully they continue reinventing the program to make it even more appealing.

I Think They Should Do If You Play More Then 5 Hours Every Day At The End If 2 Weeks Or Mouth Gets Like 1600 Or 800 Msp

J-E-T-S You have to spend way to much money to get anything. Not worth it.


Exactly not worth spending money on for the reward in return

ExoticWolfs I like this! :) I don't see why people are complaining, it is a lot better than what it is now.


not good at all you need to spend a lot just to get a reward
