First, when has the promise of "points" ever really driven someone to do something? If I say to someone driving a car in the city, "I'll give you ten points if you run down that old lady over there," they don't start revving their engine. Points mean nothing.
Which brings us to the second point. Developers realized long ago that nobody really cares about points anymore, at least not in games such as GTA or Call of Duty. And when they do involve points, there has to be some way to use those points to get something out of it, like the studs in LEGO Star Wars or the money in the career mode of Guitar Hero. Thus, there are no points where there doesn't need to be points.
And the clear fact that needs to get through their heads: THERE ARE NO POINTS IN GTA! Stop saying we get points for killing people, because any retard who plays the game for ten minutes can see it's not true.
