Daily Update: Square Enix Members?

So, today was a slow News day. Today's articles will consist of things to expect for next week and a comparison of the two leading video game loyalty programs, Square Enix Members and Club Nintendo.

Article #1: Next Couple Weeks
Finishing off Kingdom Hearts Re:Coded, so I'm (hopefully) going to be posting a review on Kingdom Hearts Re:Coded next week. Also, just got the Call of Duty Black Ops Escalation Map Pack, so I'm going to be posting an in-depth guide on that. It's a HUGE map to cover, so that might take awhile.

Article #2: Square Enix Members VS. Club Nintendo

First off, I have to say that I have been a member of both for about 2-3 years. Both have their ups and downs.

Square Enix Members: http://member.square-enix.com/na/ (North American SE Members Website)

Pros:
-Year-end Rewards are usually really great, especially for Gold-Ultimate. For the first year that Square Enix Members was on, they gave away an 8GB iPod Touch. No kidding.
-Points earned are always 50 points per game.
-Lots of ways to earn bonus points

Cons:
-Tiers can take a REALLY long time to earn
-There is no way to spend your points on rewards; just Yearly-Rewards

Club Nintendo

Pros:
-Lots of ways to earn points
-Points can be redeemed for rewards as low as 10 points
-Large Selection of Rewards
-Tier 1 (Gold) can be earned easily

Cons:
-Yearly Rewards are not the best things ever
-Not many good prizes, unlike the Japan Club Nintendo (a google search will justify my point)
-Not many chances to earn extra points

I love both Square Enix Members and Club Nintendo, so I advise you to try out both if you are a fan of either company.

That's it for today, folks! Thanks for reading!
