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.

To all the people who say you will need a paypal account.

When have you ever been made to pay before you order the pizza?

Where I live you pay when the Pizza gets delivered.

Personally I can't see the point in this.

If you want a pizza whilst playing why would you want to go off the game you are playing to order a pizza. Surely it's easier to just order from a computer or mobile phone app without leaving the game.
