Xbox Rewards

Xbox Rewards is a Microsoft program designed to give both casual and hardcore players incentives to play games on the Xbox 360. This works by having gamers register online for specific challenges, with completion then tracked by the system whenever the gamer is connected to Xbox Live. Gamers who successfully complete a challenge, such as earning a certain quantity of achievement points within a given time period, can earn physical or virtual rewards.

In order to register with the program the participant has to live in the United States or United Kingdom, be at least 13 years old, have access to an Xbox 360, and have a valid Windows Live ID with an Xbox Live gamercard linked to it. However, since the challenges are sponsored by specific companies, certain challenges may require specific games or codes from non-Microsoft products.

This program was initiated on February 12, 2007 with the "Old Spice Experience Challenge". Since then, the program has languished, with the primary URL now generating a "page not found" error when visited.

Famous quotes containing the word rewards:

    Few white citizens are acquainted with blacks other than those projected by the media and the so—called educational system, which is nothing more than a system of rewards and punishments based upon one’s ability to pledge loyalty oaths to Anglo culture. The media and the “educational system” are the prime sources of racism in the United States.
    Ishmael Reed (b. 1938)
