XBOX POINTS JUST GOT REAL

Just read a piece in the forbes magazine about xbox live game points being converted to real currency for purchases in microsoft stores. I think most serious gamers have been waiting for a moment like this and it's a nice move on the part of microsoft. Gaming is finally living up to it's real meaning in the twenty first century. People go to casinos or bars and clubs to use slot machines which are then converted into real currencies so why not video games. Though still in it's early stages i hope this will be built on  and currencies like bitcoins will be substantiated sooner than later. Some of us have gathered a lot of tokens from playing  games and can not wait to convert it into real cash for other purposes.
