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.

Exzo I wonder if the rewards will be like decent at least.
Hopefully the avatar reward will be.
I also see people changing their birthday's so they can get rewards earlier, but I guess that doesn't really matter.

Deny I have about 4k GS. The thing is, i bet more people will be trying to mod there gamerscore just for the rewards.
I don't think the rewards would be that good cuz Microsoft know about the modding

Stat It cool but I would rather msp other than a 2% rebate
Something is better than nothing. Xbox has been out for near 10 years and we never got anything until now, so I would be happy with that you get.

Sugarcane What will happen if your GS is modded?
I am pretty sure that you would still get the prizes until Microsoft finds out and bans you/:)
Lol
