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.

GibbityTree This is why PSN will always have a better marketplace then Xbox. Step your **** up Crappysoft.


What? Honestly the only way PSN can even compare to XBL is the fact its free. But that still doesnt make even close to as good as XBL. It has a terrible social-connection system . XBL gets dlc first and XBL only costs 50 dollars a year which is pretty cheap. Not saying the PS3 system is worse just its online experience.


True, Xbox is by far the best when it comes to DLC, messaging, gaming, graphics, the only way PS3 will ever beat Xbox is it being free. Only reason it's free is to keep people playing. Xbox doesn't even cost that much at all, it's very cheap.

Wagering This is the way it should be. Rewards for playing.


Couldn't agree more after all we buy live and stuff also so it should be that way


bu you're payin for a game. You save more by not buying their stuff.


Yet, they give you MSPs back, but you also get the joy of playing a new game.
