Microsoft Points will enter the annals of history by the end of this year according to InsideMobileApps, who reports that mobile developers have been briefed by Microsoft to plan their in-app purchases in preparation for the switch to real currency.
We for one are relieved, as the Microsoft Point system has never made it easy to gauge just how much content like DLC, music or Arcade Games actually cost in real money.
Microsoft has stated that it will not comment on rumour or speculation, but given that you can buy games from the Windows Phone Marketplace in real monies already, we’re hoping it won’t be too long before the Microsoft Point joins the Australian penny in the big fluffy bank in the sky. Watch this space.
