Recently, Microsoft Corporation has agreed to develop an app that will let users order takeaways while playing their favorite Xbox games such as Call of Duty.
Xbox gamers can now order pizza delivery in a very easy way; just by yelling "feed me" at their Xbox One console's screen.
This move organized by health experts together with Microsoft will leave no gamers hungry while playing their favorite Xbox games. Well, we all know that feeling when you're already hooked to a game and you have no time eating.

By shouting commands at the console's screen, a pizza menu will launch. Thanks to Xbox's Kinect voice and motion sensor.
One amazing feature of this app is you won't need to pause the game, because players can use the controller or simply gesture at the screen to select toppings and sides for their pizza.
Then, the order registers with the nearest Domino's pizza parlour and amazingly, can be tracked on-screen so gamers know just when to haul themselves off the sofa to answer the door and claim their snack.

Domino'z Pizza UK, Simon Wallis said: "We love gamers and gamers love pizza. It’s the ultimate game fuel."
"We can’t wait for people to start using the app.”
In the other hand, this incredible concept was condemned as "unethical and irresponsible" by some health campaigners, who's main concern is UK's obesity crisis.
"The app was "exploiting Xbox users," said Sonia Pombo of Consensus Action on Salt and Health.
She added: “Obesity rates are ever-increasing."
“So we should encourage people to move more and eat healthier food, rather than pro-mote junk food high in calories, salt and fat.”
Actually, Microsoft already has a similar deal in the United States as gamers can order Pizza Hut's snacks from their Xbox consoles.
