Opinion and Analysis

Microsoft does live gaming on the Xbox 360 really well.  Now, along with Old Spice, they want to give away stuff to players who rack up achievements during February.

Launching in the U.S only (sniff!) on February 12, Xbox Live will reward registered players with an increasing amount of stuff as they rack up their Gamerscore.  To quote the “Old Spice Experience Challenge” web site;

* Level 1 (0 – 4,999 annual Gamerscore): You are developing your skills and gaining experience. Take some time to get used to the program and learn your way around. The Challenges will typically be easier and the rewards smaller.

* Level 2 (5,000 – 9,999 annual Gamerscore): We are going to turn up the heat a bit. You have proved that you know how to play and are willing to put in the gaming time to reap the benefits. The Challenges will get a bit more difficult. Never fear, the reward value goes up as well.

* Level 3 (over 10,000 annual Gamerscore): This is an arena filled with the who's who of gaming. We don't want to claim that Level 3 is an exclusive club, but if you find yourself winning Challenges here, you've obviously pulled out the big guns, so enjoy while it lasts.
