Sky Player, the new way to get Sky TV through your Xbox 360 will be available in just two weeks time, Microsoft has confirmed.
"October 27 - that's the date when you'll be able to watch TV from Sky on your Xbox 360," said Graeme Boyd, Microsoft Europe's Xbox community manager.
Sky TV programmes will be available to view live or on demand, although pricing will not be announced until the Sky Player launches.
The line-up sounds very similar to what's currently available through a satellite dish. It includes movies and entertainment shows, as well as documentaries and programming dedicated to kids, music, the arts and sport, including Premier League football and Test Match cricket.
