sitwap. msoft is considering giving people achievements for watching tv on the new xbox.

"Television viewing tends to be a passive experience for a viewer, without many opportunities for the viewer to engage or have interactive experiences with the presented content," the application's description reads. "To increase interactive viewing and encourage a user to watch one or more particular items of video content, awards and achievements may be tied to those items of video content."

and i bet its up to the broadcaster to pay msoft for this feature too. (www.gamesindustry.biz)
