If information released by Microsoft today is anything to go by, Xbox 360 may soon include support for YouTube and email functionality.

According to Microsoft, upcoming Kinect game Kinect Adventures, which launches alongside the motion-sensing peripheral this November, will allow players to "share the fun with friends on the Internet through Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, e-mail and anywhere you choose."

But what could it all mean? Well, Bizarre Creations has already shown how easy it is to integrate Facebook and Twitter community options into a game, but it's the first time Microsoft has recognised YouTube and email functionality while talking about Xbox 360.

Or will we not get any of it, and instead simply given a file export option to later "share your fun" via a PC. Given Kinect's target audience and Microsoft's drive to streamline the usage of applications, we doubt it's the later.

We'll fire Microsoft an email for clarification.

Kinect launches in the UK on November 10th bundled with Kinect Adventures. It'll set you back £129.99.
