Xbox Live Rewards members can earn free Microsoft Points by spending time doing what they already love, playing Halo 4's multiplayer for hours upon hours, according to Microsofts' Xbox Rewards Site.
The new program will give Xbox Live members set amounts of MS points for accumulating a certain amount of hours. Gamers who spend 35-75 hours will receive 100 MS points for free and those who play 70-140 hours will earn 300 free MS points for their game play. If you are addicted to Halo 4's multiplayer mode, you can receive 600 MS points for playing 140 plus hours of multiplayer mode.
But Microsoft isn't done giving away MS points. Gamers who spend 1500 MS points or more on Halo content in the Xbox Live Market place will receive an extra 100 MS points. Gamers who spend 3,000 MS points on Halo content will receive 200 MS points.
However, there is a catch, gamer can only earn a maximum of 800 MS points and must meet the aforementioned requirements before the end of November.
