Microsoft has announced that it will soon launch a new app for Windows Phone devices that allows users to interact with an Xbox 360 game console using a phone.
The new app is called the Xbox Companion App and it will let users search the Xbox LIVE Marketplace for music, movies, TV shows, and games. You can also view more details about the media playing on you Xbox. For instance you can view cast information for the movie you’re watching without interrupting playback.
Xbox Companion will also turn your phone into a remote control for the Xbox, letting you hit a play button when you find media you want to play — or start controller mode to play, pause, fast forward, or rewind while connected to an Xbox over your home network.
I feel like this just spoiled all of the surprises coming to us October 11th (well most of them).
I just want me some Ice Cream Sandwich sooner than later. This looks quite delicious to say the least.
