Rumor: Xbox One to feature Skype remote play
Supposedly the feature is in testing phase right now, though Polygon's source notes that certain details are still up in the air – like how long that individual can remotely play or whether they need to own the same game or not. During the Xbox reveal event, Microsoft unveiled group Skype calls using the Xbox One's improved Kinect sensor.

im not going to lie I envisioned something like this back when I used to play Halo 2 as a kid, i wanted Xbox to get something like "Player Spectate" so you can see exactly what's on your friends screen from your Xbox I don't know if this is going to be like what I imagined... but I sill think it will be cool! :D

johny724SweetTealsGood Is the Play Station hooked up with Skype, too?
Doubtful, the only reason the Xbox One has it is because Microsoft owns Skype. So I highly doubt Playstation will have it.
The only way that Sony will ever get there paws on Skype is if they fork out a ton of cash for the licences. Sony owns BluRay so Microsoft had to pay Sony for use of its BluRay technology and Sony will have to do the sane if they want Skype

Using a Cronus device would be a lot easier.
