Microsoft: Xbox 360 users will soon be able to gift money to friends
"Full flow for gifting $ to friends via 360 will be turned on soon. Not yet!"— Mike Ybarra
An exact release date on the feature has not been announced, but Ybarra did state that the feature will be implemented soon. While this might be a fairly interesting feature, one has to wonder if this will come to the Xbox One or remain an Xbox 360 exclusive. Another thing to note is that Ybarra did make use of the "$" which could indicate that this might first roll out in the United States and only offer support for the US dollar.
The update is the first opportunity that gamers have to gift money between consoles, where previously users would have to purchase prepaid Xbox codes for a transfer to a friend. It has yet to be seen whether the money is contained within the Xbox ecosystem, or whether users can export it to their linked bank accounts.

That's true, iOS gets hacked hella, jailbreaks don't help the problem either.

F4VRENHSHow am I wrong. Xbox One lost the "war" so it is time to focus on improving the Ove. The One is soon to be 3 years old the 360 is just a hinderance at this point.F4VRE Why is the 360 still getting new features, I get a lot of people still on,y have old gen consoles but c'mon. You've lost the console war, out all your time and talent into making the One better..
Erm dont think so bud... bit wrong there
I honestly don't understand the rivalries...
I do think the 360 is way better than the PS3...
I can't stand it...
But if I did have the money I would buy the One and the PS4, they are both really good consoles, I will be getting the One over the PS4 because I have been with Xbox most of my life... But Playstation did get me started on video games though. In my opinion people should stop this console rivalry sh*t and team against the "PC Master Race"
