If playing Halo, earning gamerscore along with a billion dollars and infinite girlfriends wasn’t enough, your wait is over. Microsoft is implementing a new rewards program for it’s Xbox Live members starting today! You will now be able to earn rewards in the form of MS Points from doing certain actions on your account. For example, take a survey each month and earn 20 MS Points or renew your Gold Subscription and earn points based on the length of time you renew.

This is awesome for several reasons. First, there is now such a thing as Free Microsoft Points and B, those few spare points left over from purchases past will now be worth something. You can track your points via xbox.com and view all of the details by clicking here.  Don’t forget to check out the FAQ located here.

If you have

any comments don’t forget to post them.  Maybe you want to express how thankful you are for getting something for free or maybe you want to talk about how your lawyer will be contacting MS for implementing a rewards program right after you renewed your Gold subscription.  Either way we’d love to hear from you.
