The first internet reports have streamed in this morning on a supposed Xbox 360 achievement reward program, which claims say will shower gamers with real-life prizes for their 360 gaming skills.
The rumour emanates from community blog Unscripted 360, which claims to have accessed documentation that exposes the achievement reward program, supposedly exposing Microsoft's plans to team up with different sponsors to provide gamers with goodies for certain achievements.
Microsoft was unfortunately unavailable for comment when we picked up the dog and bone, though speaking to Team Xbox a US spokesperson noted that while it wouldn't comment on rumours: "Xbox is always exploring ideas for how we can reward our loyal customers."
Sounds promising, but what about all the games (cough)EA(cough) where the points are more or less given away? How's that proof of your skills?
