Pizza Hut Becomes Official Pizza Chain of Xbox LIVE; Xbox Becomes Official Gaming Console of Fatties

Hardcore Gamer: Who the hell are you kidding with the Kinect functionality, Pizza Hut? Nobody using this is going to own a Kinect, because those games involve enough physical activity to make their hearts explode and they'd become offended when Star Wars Kinect kept misidentifying them as a small moon.

"Xbox Becomes Official Gaming Console of Fatties"

HaHa!

It's funny alright, but more because of how laughably pathetic the anti-Xbox brigade is becoming with each passing day.

I mean really, an article to call Xbox gamers fat? I'd be embarrassed, if I were you.

MaxXAttaxX4008d ago (Edited 4008d ago )

lol relax, I'm sure it was a joke. No need to be so defensive.
Getting offended by the word "fatties" and assuming the article was posted by an "anti-Xbox brigade" is ridiculous.
I mean, how do you report on these news in the first place without getting a chuckle out of it :P

Zezo4008d ago

**Pizza in the Morning, Evening and Supper Time (100G): Order one pizza between 11 AM and 12 PM, between 12 PM and 6 PM, and between 6 PM and 11 PM in one day.**

haha hopefully, the Krispy Kreme Pazzos Pizzas DLC will be coming soon.

JoGam4008d ago

@ Max,........ Maybe is got upset because he's overweight.

AngelicIceDiamond4008d ago

It is a joke and yeah its humorous but the anti-Xbox brigade is no laughing matter and is very real on this site.

http://n4g.com/news/1242205...

A simple opinion piece gone wrong on N4G. The usual Sony troll puppet gets a well said for his ignorance, and others follow behind him like usual.

If that's not Anti- Xbox Brigade than I don't know what is.

I agree with @Jim

Lol..

You picked a great image , ha ha

aviator1894010d ago

I just see the app as another avenue for ordering the pizza. It won't really benefit me, but I don't see any harm coming out of it, just another alternative way of ordering.

And kinect isn't required to use it, so I don't understand why the author is complaining about that.

NBT914008d ago

Exactly. iPhone has a Pizza Hut app, does that make it the official phone for fatties?

It's a light hearted joke article... Maybe taken a little too far with that title though.
On the plus side the app has voice recognition, sweet. I can tell my XBOX to give me a pizza... As long as I pay £30 a year for the privilege of course =P.

JoGam4008d ago (Edited 4008d ago )

Hold up.... Are you saying the app isn't free to use? I must pay to use the app, pay pizza hut, and tip the driver? Man if i gotta pay to use the app my pizza better be free or me and the delivery man gonna have a problem.

***BURP***?

TemplarDante4008d ago

What a shame..
Thanks for feeding the gamer stereotype, MSFT...

CommonSenseGamer4008d ago

”Fatties”. Was that insult really warranted in the title.

Honestly, too much creative license on this site.

Ravenor4008d ago

I didn't know enjoying a pizza every once in awhile made you a fatty, or does the author know the eating habits of everyone who might use this?

Hell, who even orders from Pizza Hut?

just_jeff4008d ago

by "this site" I hope you mean hardcoregamer.com cause N4G is site that just collects the news stories and sites the source. Then the visitors of this site, N4G.com, dump the story or not.

Xbox 360 Turns 18: Three Cheers to Live, Halo, and Red Rings

The Xbox 360 launched in North America 18 years ago, and is now officially old enough to buy you a drink in Europe.

darthv72149d ago

Great platform, and many of its games (not bc) still hold up well to this day. Like the PS3, I keep a 360 hooked up for those games you can't play any other way.

isarai149d ago

The last gasp of greatness from XBox, you are missed, except the RROD that was lame, but amazing exclusives until the Kinect dropped.

TheBrainZ149d ago

So many brilliant games. I still have one stored somewhere.

LG_Fox_Brazil149d ago

I really enjoyed my X360, some great exclusives on it. Used to play the shit out ot Blue Dragon and Lost Odyssey, two masterpieces

I remember when Live turned five and they had special edition controllers made and everything. Kind of wished they would do that again for the 20th.

Orchard520d ago

Happy Birthday. OG XBL (and later 360 XBL) really revolutionized online gaming on console.

Crows90519d ago

Never understood the obsession with live...but I was gaming online on PC so not sure too much of what live did that the PlayStation didn't.

Profchaos519d ago

I had a PS2 and it's online experience was fine but it didn't have the same level of polish voice chat never worked for me but I was trying to play from Australia where not many people played PS2 online to the point where many devs simply dropped the online mode from the pal version.
That's not all PS2 games mind you there were plenty that worked perfectly but it was more on the dev and not the platform

During that era I also played a fairly large amount on online PC games and they were undoubtedly better than both systems. PS2 from functionality and Xbox because it was free

Playing my friends original Xbox it was a really polished experience it felt robust yet simple things just worked there was zero config.

Crows90519d ago (Edited 519d ago )

Yeah but the time ps3 came the experience was the same on both based on what I played...not too much online though to be honest. But I do think that the xbox did help bring online into the console space a lot. As well as PC games to consoles.

Profchaos519d ago (Edited 519d ago )

Today would of been the perfect day to drop halo 2 the original bc version free on gwg.... If only
