Ben "Fishtix" Goldhaber of TwitchTV jumped on the Canada Cup 2012 stream tonight to discuss an upcoming project that he and his team have been working on. TwitchTV is creating an app for Xbox Live that will allow users to watch their favorite streams right from their consoles.

Below is the official post from TwitchTV:

We’re very excited to confirm that coming this Fall, Twitch content will be viewable on Xbox 360 and Xbox Live. All the fantastic content you’ve come to know and love over the past year will be readily available on your television via the Xbox 360 and our new Twitch App. We’re extremely thrilled about this project and we can’t wait to share more details with you. Stay tuned!

Allowing people to watch competitive gaming streams directly from their consoles will not only expose tons of new viewers to FGC events, such as Canada Cup 2012, but will also provide a more convenient way to watch your favorite players compete, i.e. on your television.

In what other ways do you guys feel a TwitchTV app on Xbox Live could benefit the fighting game community? Leave your thoughts below.
