Order Pizza Hut from Xbox 360

4.6
Xbox 360 owners now have the option to download the Pizza Hut app for their console and place an order directly from the comfort of their couch, cozy recliner or beanbag chair. As Polygon reports, there's no need to search for a phone anymore, as the chain's full menu (pizza, pasta, breadsticks, agita) is available from the app. Shame or pride after ordering can be shared across Facebook.

"We're always looking at ways to give our audience more of what they're interested in," Xbox's Larry Hryb told Polygon. "If you look at our audience, they love pizza. I mean, who doesn't? It has international appeal, and Pizza Hut is a recognized brand that matches up well with the Xbox brand."

Don't go thinking Microsoft is some pioneer in this space. In 2005, World of Warcraft let you order chinese food from Pandaren Xpress... no, wait, that was a joke. However, EverQuest 2 players could order a pie by simply typing /pizza.

It's different for sure. I don't see what's so hard about picking up a phone and calling them though. I won't be doing this anyway because they don't deliver to the swamp.

I really thought this was silly, but I have used it once and I was pleased, the delivery guy also had a laugh about it with me. Earned himself a good tip.

Mortar I think that this is quite a nifty idea, I will definitely try this out later for my evening meal. It is a shame that there isn't any promotion for ordering from it, if there was, that would be awesome.


It would definitely make some people want to try it out.

It's a lot easier just to order it from your phone because if you do it from your Xbox then you have to stop playing but if you order it from your phone, you can game and get pizza at the same time.
