Since Microsoft launched the Xbox Live Marketplace alongside the Xbox 360 in 2005, there’s been a nagging issue that’s bothered many users: Microsoft Points. According to a report, they might be finally going away this year in favor of a more preferable setup.
Inside Mobile Apps reports a source has indicated Microsoft Points are to be replaced by real-world currencies by the end of the year, which means a new currency system would be put in place not only for Xbox Live, but also the Windows Phone and Zune Marketplaces.
