Xbox 360 now offering rewards based on Gamerscore
Now Microsoft has confirmed that getting a high Xbox 360 Gamerscore can also generate some real rewards. The company has launched a new program called MyAchievements which will give Xbox 360 gamers even more of an incentive to play and get a higher score.
Everyone who gets a Gamerscore of 3,000 and above and is a member of MyAchievements will receive some kind of special "gift" for their birthday. The fine print says the gift will be priced around 25 cents so we suspect that it's some kind of Xbox Live avatar gift item. People who reach the 10,000 Gamerscore level will receive a one percent refund on any Xbox Live Marketplace purchase every month.
For the truly dedicated Xbox 360 gamer, Microsoft will offer a two percent monthly Xbox Live Marketplace rebate if they reach the 25,000 Gamerscore level. While the rewards may be pretty small, it's still better than nothing and it's possible that Microsoft might add to the MyAchievements program in the months ahead.

I like this even though i don't buy stuff off of the market much but oh well. If I do, I could get a small discount, but hey some is better than none right

People have been wanting this for quite some time. Now they've done it and are offering some nice prizes.
If you mod your gamerscore, I assume the rewards will get revoked and you'll get reset, possibly even banned for a couple days.

It is only common sense, if they were to offer really big prizes the xbox community would start hacking their gamerscore again / more then ever.
