After many rumors, Hulu has finally been announced for the con­soles in the form of Hulu Plus.

The ser­vice entitled “Hulu Plus” will arrive on Ps3 some­time this July with the 360 ver­sion com­ing some­time next year. This ser­vice is already avaliable on the iPhone, iPod Touch, and the iPad so if you’ve been using them you should have some idea of how it works. The ser­vice will allow users to watch con­tent from basic­ally everything ever on TV for a monthly fee of $10.

According to MS, the reason for the delay is to cre­ate a cus­tom­ized exper­i­ence fine-tuned for the 360, a.k.a Kinect integ­ra­tion:

“We are tak­ing the time to ensure that the Hulu Plus exper­i­ence for Xbox 360 is the best on TV,” said Major Nelson in a state­ment, “and like our other enter­tain­ment exper­i­ences, it will not be a port, but rather a cus­tom exper­i­ence that lever­ages the Xbox Live com­munity fea­tures”.

Sony on the other hand didn’t dive into any spe­cific details, includ­ing if users will require PlayStation Plus to get access to the ser­vice. With the ser­vice called Hulu “Plus” we expect PlayStation “Plus” will be required.
