What does it mean to have 'Xbox' in Windows 10?


    The Xbox brand has-been leaking into Windows for a while, goal based on this year's E3, It Seems like it's being poured into Windows 10.
    Here are the good things about Windows 10: it'll be a free upgrade, we get DirectX 12, and it should be Easier for developers to create cross-platform PC and Xbox One games. Purpose aside from DirectX 12, what do we get? Here are Reviews some of the benefits of Xbox on Windows 10: 

-Get a "collection of award-winning Xbox game franchises."
-Stream On Xbox games to Windows 10 devices.
-Cross-platform play with Xbox One players.
-Record and edit video gameplay.

    None of this is hugely exciting. We get Xbox branding, cross-play with Xbox One, and 'exclusive' games, but not all first-party Xbox games, as far as we know. At the PC Gaming Show Earlier this week, Xbox head Phil Spencer Would not say much more about that effort. "There's been a lot of push for us to do more in the first party, and we will, we're dedicated to That," he said. "I do not like to make promises or announce things before we-have a plan."

    HOWEVER much Microsoft treats the PC like a console When It Comes to its own games and services, the rest of the PC gaming ecosystem is too big and unwieldy to be tamped down. I do not think Steam, GOG, and the general spirit of PC gaming are under assault. Microsoft has, After All, brought` Ori and the Blind Forest, Halo: Spartan Assault, and --other games to Steam, and I do not think-as Gabe Newell May still fear-that Windows will ever be closed to free software distribution. But I'm still never going to be comfortable Saying "Xbox" when talking about PC games. I might play Halo 5 if Microsoft wants to put it on PC, let's call it purpose what it called Expired Ought To be a PC game.
