Microsoft’s “Live Anywhere” concept, whereby Xbox Live can be shared across multiple platforms, isn’t quite yet with us. But when it is, it may look something like this.

Speaking at TechEd Middle East, Microsoft’s Eric Rudder has shown off this demo of a platformer than is able to be played across a Windows 7 phone, Xbox 360 and PC. Not only is the game mostly comprised of the same code (only around 10% has to be specifically reserved for multiplatform stuff), but as Rudder shows, you can play on your phone, pause, then resume playing on a 360 at the exact point you stopped on the phone.
Pretty great.
