Pizza Hut Xbox 360 app made over $1 million in first four months

4.7
The Pizza Hut app on Xbox 360, which made its debut back in April and allows you to order food from the delivery chain directly through your console, has earned Pizza Hut quite a bit of dough – over $1 million in four months. That's around 166,667 P'Zones or 200,000 orders of breadsticks.

The last notable collision between gaming and Pizza Hut was the implementation of "/pizza" in Everquest 2 back in 2005. When players typed in "/pizza," they'd be taken to Pizza Hut's online ordering page.

"It's been a source of unbelievable growth for us," Pizza Hut PR head Doug Terfehr told Polygon. "Just the explosion of people who wanted to download it, experiment with it, play with it with Kinect. As soon as we did one, everyone was contacting us to do the next [one]." As for bringing a Pizza Hut app to other consoles, Terfehr says conversations are "ongoing."

I love pizza but come we need the green rush in this country look at Colorado With Colorados recreational marijuana legalization up and running flawlessly, harvesting nearly $5 million in pot sales during the first week, others states seeking to reduce overhead, while increasing revenue, are now queuing up to legalize pot like Colorado and Washington state. And barring any federal intervention, America could soon find itself neck deep in a marijuana mutiny of the best sort. LEGALIZATION!
