Windows Phone 7 games could hit Xbox with new Silverlight

Microsoft's MIX conference is only a week away, rumors indicate that we will see a new version of Silverlight, which will make it possible to play Windows 7 Phone games on Xbox 360.WinRumos have a source that says that Silverlight will definitely be comes to Xbox 360 on MIX conference, and this will open the door for a stronger, cross-platform games.
That storey by CNET on Netflix was from 2009 and since then, Netflix has come out defending it that Silverlight is by far the most stable means of delivering cinema available. It has not really been any problems since. Silverlight (Microsoft's attempt to finish with Adobe Flash) and Microsoft Azure (their big cloud initiatve) and two units that Microsoft is really pushing. The following major companies are already using Silverlight: 3M, NASA, General Mills, Volvo, Xerox, The Associated Press, T-Mobile and soon to be Toyota. This is proof that Silverlight is not a candle in the wind.
Until now we have thought about cross-platform games like Xbox games coming to Windows 7 Phone, as it is the only mobile operating system that can sync to your Xbox with things like avatar control.
S. NO I will not be a blind 360 fanboy, this stuff is very likely. I give my PS3 and Wii as well ... lots of love
The transition to Silverlight on the home console can be very attractive for developers as well, as this would open up a new audience to the game makers.
We had much hope for Windows 7 Phone gaming when it was launched, but it has not really seemed to deliver on the promises we have heard from Microsoft.
We will have things such as strong cross-platform gaming, gaming that can easily be reopened no matter what device you use, and more.
