Who needs games when you can have more TV and “entertainment” apps.

Microsoft today announced that Comedy Central and Nickelodeon apps are now available for Xbox 360 owners in the United States. Both require Xbox Live Gold subscriptions, and in the case of the Nick app, will only work for those with a subscription to select TV providers.

The CC app features a whole lot of of comedy videos and comedians, and the Nickelodeon app features full episodes, shorts and more from all of the popular Nickelodeon serie (including SpongeBob and TMNT).

Read on for the announcement.
