www.poweruprewards.com/Has anyone "upgraded" to this yet? I just found out about it yesterday, when I walked into the store. Not even sure if they are advertising it yet. Seems like a cool, thing replaces your Edge card, so if you already have one everything gets transferred over to this new card. Thoughts?

I have one, but I've bought very few games recently, so I don't have many points.

Well, it's free so I can't complain much, but the prizes require huge amount of points. You need to spend some serious cash just to get a basic prize. I think it's like spending $500 just for a $5 coupon on your next visit?
Regardless, like I said it was a free "upgrade" and you get a new shiny card. I'm all for it.

My area has had this program since June. GameStop's doing regional testing for now, but plans on making it nation wide eventually.
I already got a free wireless Microsoft Xbox 360 controller from this program, thanks to a screw up. I was suppose to get a free wired GameStop branded 360 controller, but the coupon the program sent me was for the official first party wireless controller instead, so I got like a $25 free upgrade, basically.

So, it's basically Best Buy's Reward Zone...except you can only spend it on videogames.

Kinda, except you spend it on gaming related items, like controllers, posters, key chains, belt buckles, wallets, etc. The grand daddy reward is $50 off of your next purchase at GameStop. Meaning, it basically makes a full priced Wii game free and makes a full priced 360/PS3 game really freaking cheap.

I've got a grand so far, however, they haven't credited me for Sengoku Basara: Samurai Heroes. It might have been when I had to return Halo Reach though. (My used copy skipped and the store got a Legendary in used, complete with the metal case and unused DLC)

I've managed to finally activate my account after nearly a month as my computer wouldn't work on it and I had to do it at my grandparents house and I have 3130 credit points. Though I'm not exactly sure how I'm suppose to use them.

Though I'm not exactly sure how I'm suppose to use them. Just save them and get the item you want. Right now, with the credits you have, you can get any of the 3 Game Protection Guarantees, or either of the battery 4-packs they have. In November, you can also get either the Mario Key Chain or the Call of Duty Dog Tags.

However, I find it weird that the game showed up already on my collection but no creditos. Then again, maybe the bugs are still getting worked out. So far, I've put about 160 items on my collection. HALFWAY DONE.
