Gamers could soon be able to receive alerts on their mobile phones when their friends are playing on Microsoft's Xbox 360 games console.
The software giant is working on a system which would let players on its online gaming service, Xbox Live, send instant messages to a friend's mobile.
Microsoft UK mobility business manager Jason Langridge told the BBC the system should be live within six months.
It is part of Microsoft's strategy to connect its various online services.

nteresting, but they'll hardly make an effort JUST to go back to the house to play if their friend is on.
