With Microsoft points now erased and real money being used to buy games on Xbox Live, Microsoft has unleashed it’s new and improved Rewards Service. Now, when subscribers use Xbox Live to perform actions such as renewing a membership, buying and playing a new game, refering a friend, they can earn reward credits. Those credits can then be converted into cash credit which is deposited into your Microsoft account once a player has reached 5000 credits. The earnings are converted into the subscriber’s local currency and will be deposited around the 15th and 30th of each month. Th econversion rate is $5 for every 5,000 credits.

I like the new look of the site, but it doesn’t even allow you to keep track of how many hours you put into a new app or game. @Jackson2Jermain
