Microsoft gives away 500 MS Points for Xbox Live's fifth anniversary - Image 1Microsoft is personally thanking everyone after all the birthday wishes sent in by gamers for the fifth anniversary of Xbox Live. Aside from releasing Carcassonne for free, it is also giving away 500 Microsoft Points to every member who's been with them since 2002.

You can avail of these precious Microsoft Points by signing up at Microsoft's Xbox 360 website using your Windows Live ID associated to your Gamertag. The latest you can sign up, however, is until midnight (PST) of November 29.

You'll then have to wait for an e-mail from them with the 25-digit code to activate your Microsoft Points through your Xbox 360 console. Don't expect that e-mail to arrive instantly, though, since the deadline for the e-mail is December 21 of this year. After you get your MS Points, you have until June 30, 2008 to spend it, but if you're anything like us here at QJ.NET, those Microsoft Points will be long gone before then.

So go ahead and check out the website we've provided through the via link below and get to spending those Points.

If you need help.

If you have an X-Box Live account, you have a Windows Live ID. If you can't remember it, go to your dashboard, click your gamer card and choose Account Management, then go to Windows Live ID and it says what the e-mail address was the you used.
