Unlocking Xbox Achievements may soon get you free MSP

4.5
If you are what's commonly referred to as an "Achievements Whore", you may soon have a real incentive to rake in those Xbox Gamerscore points besides feeling good about yourself on Xbox forums.

Microsoft has teased that it will soon be offering new 'rewards' based on the unlocking of Achievements in Xbox 360 games.
The announcement came from the official Twitter feed of the Xbox Live Rewards website, which teased, "Coming Fall: a new way to earn Rewards based on your Achievements!"

Further prying for details was dismissed by the MS rep, but those familiar with the Xbox Live Rewards site will know that it's a loyalty program that offers free Microsoft Points as rewards for completing specific and varying tasks.

That considered, we expect some Achievement-related MS Point rewards coming this Autumn. And that sounds pretty good to us.

The "rewards" probably wont be per achievment, but every time you max out a game.

You guys all know that you will get a tiny amount of MSP, Probably below 20 for most achievements.

Cannot wait for this, although I got a new account so my Gamerscore is low :( I sure hope that they create it meaning on the gamerscore you obtain soon after! And they will also have to consider the fact people still hack gamerscore

I can remember when I first got my xbox, I thought Gamerscore was microsoft points. Used to think if I got loads of Gamerscore I could buy loads of things :P

Awesome. If this did happen then I would try a lot harder to earn those extra achievements. Hope it happens.
