Sky on Xbox360

[Cliotoby]

How does this work then. If I have a live member ship (Gold for example) what does it come with? Says "Watch Sky Sports, Sky Movies and lots more" but surely theres a catch?

You'll probaly need a Sky Sports subscription.

Like Kane said, you need a Sky subscription. And if you have a box in your house e.g in your living room, youll get all the packages what you have on that on your xbox.

This. I used it for a while, it was good, no issues with the streaming. I found the menu a bit clunky and awkward though, and it's fairly pointless if you already have Sky in your home. If you're xBox is at a different house though, then its handy if you want to watch Sky for anything.

I have my xbox in another room so its like I have two sky boxes in two different rooms which is handy but im 16 and live with my parents so its most probably not the same ahaha.

The best thing about having Sky on the Xbox is the On Demand content.

The amount of movies available is superb.

But as said, you need a Sky subscription, plus the relevant packages to have access to all the different areas etc.

Right ok thanks. Wont be re subscribing anytime soon then. I knew it wasnt that straight forward. I dont have sky.

So, could I use my girlfriends Sky account (separate adress) to watch it on my xbox?

 

[Revels]

Yup.

I don't have sky just virgin media is it possible just to get sky sports channels on my xbox?

 

[paddymph]

Yup.

Sweet! That's almost like two for one..?! Surely they're losing money? Or maybe they're making more with extra customers blagging their mates details and then purchasing stuff Pay Per View?

You'd have to sign in as a new Sky customer I think? Or get a mates/family's details and use that for your Sky id. Would that work?

 

[Marc.]

You can use any Sky ID you know of, IIRC.

^^

Correct.

If you get your OH's Sky log in details then it will all be good.
