Giving their base everything but games. Who needs their 360 to order Pizza, and why not Dominos instead of Pizza Hut? Getting pizza hut to deliver is damn near impossible unless you live like a mile or less away from the restaurant. "LARGE!!"... lol gtfoh. Ohh and i guess this is for Gold members only?
I am actully mad about this, and i dont even own a 360, this the dumbest shit i have ever seen in the industry, it paints and validates one of the most recognized stereotype about gamers perfectly.
Why does a video game console needs to order pizza and why do i need to pay $4 a month to be able to do so?

No, it doesn't require a Gold subscription. It does require that you have an Xbox LIVE account, however.
The console doesn't order the pizza. You do, if you elect to use the application to place an order for pizza.
One reason you might elect to use this app, is if you're sitting down with your girlfriend or boyfriend for the evening, decide to watch a movie, and want something to eat for dinner, and you decide pizza is a good option. Open the app, order your pizza, and start your movie. Another, if you and your friends' impromptu gaming changed your dinner plans. Open the app, order your pizza, and go back to gaming.
Why Pizza Hut instead of Dominos? Why not? Both are international chains.
Well, Pizza Hut is a part of Yum!, which includes Taco Bell and Kentucky Fried Chicken, and it is the largest restaurant company in the world. Dominos is a part of Bain Capitol. Pizza Hut is the larger chain, offering more franchises across the globe, so if the app goes global it'd be an easy fit.
I'd love to see the ability to order from Jimmy Johns, to be honest. So freaky, so fast!
