I keep checking the XB dashboard for this game! hurry up and release already!
"I just move my PC when I want to play it in another room."
You must have one of those mini ATX PCs. No way I could move mine so readily. I have stuffed all sorts into both My PCs and they weigh a fair bit, wrapped in their NZXT phantom cases. aside from the fact that they are attached to a shit load of studio equipment, its simply not practical for somebody like me, to move my PCs to the living room. Just give me the ability to access my steam games from my xbox.

"Dont get it, why would you spend £300 on a X1 when you can get a Steam Link for just £40 to do exactly the same thing?"
Because you cant play games like halo, forza, SSOD or quantum break on steam. Also...PC users see no point in buying steam. Pro PC users wont buy one because you cant use your pro apps in anything other than windows (or a mac) anyway.Console gamers clearly are not interested in the steam box either. So if va...

"Kind of like what Sony did with Linux on PS3 right?"
LOL...what Im talking about...What MS is talking about...is NOTHING like what sony did. You are talking about KB/M support and web browsing....That stuff is LIGHTWEIGHT compared to what I am talking about. Do you use a computer in a proffesional environment?

"Protool and other daw produces the same quality"
Not true. And on a different day in a different thread, on a different forum I would PROVE this. It gets debated a lot in my proffesional circles, which one is better, but for sure they dont all sound the same from a mixing and mastering perspective.If I bounced a mix from cubase, reason and pro tools ( I use all three btw) you would hear differences, even if you could not tell which is which. ...
pleasantly surprised. Ill be picking this up on XB1 for sure.
crackdown...oh the memories :)
"because majority of sales on xbox were digital for this game"
MS dont publish digital sales numbers vs physical, so how can you possibly state that as some kind of fact?
Yes. all my freinds love it to, so ill never be a lone in the dark zone. My dawgz are ready, and once I get the ACR, its a problem for other players.
@Tsar4ever
riiiight...because MS never considered launching their console with a camera accessory...oh wait..never mind...can the PSeye do what kinect does? Can it track fingers? does it enable you to issue voice commands to your playstation?
And of course they shouldnt put an xbox app on their own windows phone right? They should leave that sort of thing to sony, even though smart glass is superior to its PS equivalent..... right?
by the way......
At first the haters were saying "we'll beleive it when we see it...MS showed this:

Then they said..."that dont count...I want to see it in a game"
Then MS showed off this:

And now they are saying &q...
Yay! Was hoping this would get a western release.
I NEED this game on my xbox. I mostly play forza 6 and FH2, with a dash of Pcars but I got plenty of rom to add a proper rally game to my quality selection of racers. Ill be enjoying this and and Quantum break for march.
"Sony is ahead with this with PS Now to some degree. They already said PS4 streaming is coming to PC and Mac. And it's already on the top brand televisions. So it's only a matter of time."
Two different approaches. MS hardware is not going anywhere, especially Xbox, and if they end up buying AMD, I dont expect to EVER hear such talk again. They are not investing in game streaming...sony is. you dont need local hardware for that...MS cloud compute exists to supp...
"Microsoft is a devices, services, and cloud business."
People get so caught up in windows that they forget this. PC is for desktop gamiong. suface covers the laptop/mobile gaming. xbox has the living room. Its pretty obvious, that is what is going on here. one platform/OS, three devices to access your stuff from.
"1) Microsoft launches Xbox PC/Console Hybrid
2) Microsoft sells licenses to different vendors to create their own custom Xbo...
"Steam doesn't need Microsoft, and that's being made abundantly clear with Steam OS."
Firstly...yes...steam does need windows...

Got numbers for the amount of people using steam OS?
Are any businesses using it? do they have a server business? are any artists/designers/creatives using it? No....
"Granted if it meant the Xbox games would be available on steam as well somehow (like Halo 5 or Sunset Overdrive) that'd be big for PC players as well. However as a PC gamer I'd rather take the cheaper and more proven way."
PC gamers can access the windows store just as easily as they can the steam store. This is about Xbox as an eco system. PC gamers are now invited to the party. And it might be a case of steam being in on the party already...clearly something...
What I really want to know is when will I be able to use pro tools on XB1 in my living room...with a midi keyboard hooked up to my xbox, and my beats blasting out of my surround sound :)
Good article. All this stuff sure has ruffled the feathers of many of my fellow xbox gamers, but in truth...we win. There was a comment in the section of the OP that highlights where my head is at with this whole XB-windows stuff
"You know what gets me. Is that everyone talks about the door swinging one way; ie games going from Xbox One to Windows 10. But people fail to realize that in the background, Microsoft has created the tools for the door to swing the OTHER way as we...
added to my future backlog yesterday, as it looked descent enough and the reviews have been positive. Wondering if I should have just waited for it in an XBL sale though.n No idea when I actually gonna get to play it. Between Halo5, smite, Gigantic's beta, FM6, FH2, the solus project, elite, the fact that I finally started playing FC4... QB and dirt rally are pre ordred and pre installed, and I still aint touched my copies of RotTR, SSOD or ryse among others...My xbox ids over flowing wi...
