Also, to go with the 10,000 pt score, is the January for 2000 so you could pick up 12,000 from both, and of course smaller denominations from signing in and getting weekly and daily scores for each achievement.

Ikenfell is another easy one. (Turn on instant victory in options). Achievement guide on youtube is edited to 45 mins of gameplay, but with all the battles leveling up characters I’d say it took me 6-8 hours to beat the story. Also good game to play like 30 mins at a time if you want to just get your daily 50 pts after completing the 10k challenge.

To get this 10k challenge I’m gonna have to go through my many years of free GWG games to look for easy achievements lol, or at least find more recent games.

Every time they have this challenge youtubers keep posting essentially the same 10 games that I’ve already played.

 

[Freeze Time]

• Fractured Minds - 0-1 hour
• The Gardens Between - 1-2 hours
• What Remains of Edith Finch - 2-3 hours
• NHL 94 Rewind - 2-3 hours, available with Game Pass Ultimate or EA Access
• Day of the Tentacle Remastered - 2-3 hours
• Full Throttle Remastered - 2-3 hours
• The Walking Dead: Michonne - 3-5 hours
• The Touryst - 4-5 hours
• Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice - 6-8 hours
• Tell Me Why - 7-10 hours for 1500G
• The Walking Dead: A New Frontier - 8-10 hours

So around 50 hours to get the equivalent of $20 real dollars correct?

 

[audiomaxica1]

Carrion can do both Xbox and PC separately for 1000g each. I think it took 3-4 hours to beat.

I feel like a lot of 360 era games would hand out achievement points left and right. I've played 10 hours of Cyberpunk and have racked up 15.

What I have found so far is that I'm actually enjoying a few of these indie games I would have never played before.

I noticed they no longer offer 5% cashback at gamestop. It was nice while it lasted.

Did they remove the option to donate 5000 points a month to other family members? Bummer!

I’ve raised this question as well. People have responded that it’s supposed to only be temporary. Hopefully that’s true

Hopefully. Thanks! The 5K I get from my wife's account every month is nice.

Refs coach loads as it is, declaring when the jackler has rights is not an issue for me.
Won't help us if they keep pinging turnovers, since we are pretty good at it.

Are you having a stroke?

So, what is weird is after I contacted CS a while back they had to manually do my $10 auto redeem and now every month I get two which is fine, because I have enough points to cover but definitely been saving me points.  Also got double points last month on Forza and Top 10 punch cards 1000 each when the first time I got achievement didnt work they credited me my points then this past weekend decided to try them again and it worked.

Just noticed that you cannot redeem your reward points for Microsoft credit on the console.  You can still do it via the browser, but who knows for how long. Not a good sign.

I did just that a few hours ago. It’s still showing for me

Yeah, it's back now. That was strange. I had to use my PC to redeem some points.
