Free MS points from Microsoft themselves.

Microsoft's "Xbox Live Rewards" program, which began testing over a year ago, looks set to finally be about to open to the public, with a page turning up on Xbox.com devoted to the service.

The program essentially rewards users for spending money on Xbox Live, giving out Microsoft Points and other freebies for doing things like renewing Xbox Live subscriptions and purchasing content on the various Xbox Live Marketplaces.

You can see an example chart below; we don't know much more specific stuff, because while this welcome page is active, any attempts to login and access further content or information are met with dead links.

We've contacted Microsoft for further information, and will update if we hear back.

UPDATE - It appears as though the pages have been taken down.

Thought this was worth it's own thread. Thoughts?

As long as they keep giving me free points to spend for buying shit I'd already buy I'm good.

Be nice to win one of those fucking contests from time to time tho.

They gave me 400 points cause I played Halo 2 on my Xbox360 like once or twice. So, when they ended online for Xbox original games I got credited with the points.

I bought Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles the 1989 Arcade Game.

They leave us out of shit all the time. Plus our dollars are dam near equal, but we pay a ton more for everything.

HALO points showed up around the time the Originals went offline.

I don't think it was tied to this promotion.

It was done in like April when they got rid of all the Xbox Live support for original Xbox games.

Around the same time they decided to cancel 1 Vs. 100 Live :mad::mad::mad:!
