If the Xbox was powered off, it simply started the downloads when I connected to Xbox Live from the console.

Not owning a 360 I don't know how the feature works at the moment, but the article implied that the PS4 feature wakes the console from standby, downloads the game then goes back into standby mode.

From your description it sounds like the 360 does not exit standby mode to download the game, so it would still require user intervention.
