I was delighted when they introduced a very very very small rebate for having a certain gamerscore. Xbox 360 pioneered achievements for consoles so it would only make sense that they would make them even more relevant to gamers.

If I were them, I would make special awards for milestones like 50,000, 100,000 ect. A cool avatar award or a free game or something when you hit a big milestone that demonstrates your dedication to the system would be really nice ... just as Nintendo rewards those who reach certain milestones in number of games purchased in a year.

I suppose, people could just rent games, but if your gamerscore is over 100,000 and you have not purchased a few games, DLC and arcade titles along the way I would be very surprised.

Good ideas.

Can you imagine if they they let you chose between some special rifel in Halo, a free game or some other custom thing?  People would go nuts working on their gamerscore.

And I saw, there are some people near 1 million, not sure if they have made it yet.
