PSA: Get Some Free Microsoft Points For Using Bing

Microsoft runs its Bing rewards service every now and again and this time you can use it to get a couple of hundred free Microsoft Points.

If you’re on Windows (not for you Mac users) and don’t mind installing a browser toolbar you can get yourself 250 points (Bing points that is) which can be redeemed for actual Microsoft Points, which in turn can be redeemed for games and the like. Nice and complicated.

Just follow the prompts, get the Points and then never use it again. It does says it’s for US residents only, but it’s a well-known fact that I was born in the USA and live at 123 Freedom Street, Freedomville and spend my days draped in an American flag. I’ve not actually got my MS Points yet, so it might have figured out I’m in Europe and decided I’m not worthy but if you are in the US it can’t hurt to try. It’s only 200 Microsoft moonbucks (you can of course do their silly tasks to earn more if you like) but it’s an easy way to top-up those pesky leftover Points you get after buying a big DLC pack.

So, in summary:

• Make an account here.
• Add the Points to the cart here.
• Wait a while for the emails to come through.

Dead Rising: Case Zero is 400 Points so if you’ve got some left over or did some of their tasks you could have that for free. Not too shabby.
