Yesterday word rumbled in, via countless tips and screengrabs, that Microsoft was preparing to roll-out a test of some sort of Xbox Live rewards program for the Xbox 360.

Today Microsoft confirmed to Kotaku that they are indeed looking into it.

"We are always exploring ways to provide the most value for our members and are currently testing a pilot rewards program with a select base of our Xbox LIVE community in the US," a spokesman told Kotaku. "We have no further details to share at this time."

All we know so far, from the email being sent about, is that the non-transferable sign-up period for the program closes on Oct. 21.

It's unclear what exactly the program will entail, but it could be anything from rewarding frequent gamers with Microsoft points to discounts for frequent point buyers.

What would you like it to entail?
