It's not THAT much but it's free and you can probably get them just by doing stuff you usually do. There's three categories you'll have to complete tasks in, so here they are...

Games
This will be the easiest category for everyone to check off.

If you got a Kinect, play 2 hours of a game in the month of April.
If you play multiplayer, play 10 hours in the month of April.
If you don't want to do either of those, Spend 800 points on game related materials.
(I'd suggest FEZ as it comes out next week and is only 800 points)

Not that you've crossed that off your list, here's the next one

Entertainment
Spend 10 hours watching streaming entertainment off of approved apps. This includes Netflix, Crackle, Last FM, Hulu Plus. I'd assume most of you guys probably do that already in a month so this doesn't seem too difficult.

If you don't want to however, you can spend 400 points on movie/tv related purchases. I wouldn't though.

Social
This will be the one we all cringe about. Spend an hour on Xbox's Social Media like...

Facebook and Video Kinect.

ERG, but before you all start crying to your momma's about how unfair this is...

You can also do YouTube. So an hour on YouTube using Xbox, that's not too bad. It's definitely doable.

So get cracking on your free 300 points. I'm already halfway there.

Oh, also I pretty sure this is just limited to Xbox Live Gold members because the apps probably require gold. So those without, you're probably SOL otherwise. Sorry. Now you can cry to your momma's.

**Note: Cookiemonster points out you have to be signed up for Xbox Rewards to get credit**

    So I took track of the amount of hours I used HBO GO, YouTube and the hours I played online. So far, I haven't received any points but I read the terms and conditions and if you do complete the Triple Play, you should receive your 300 MSP no later than May 15.
