By the looks of it, it sounds like they want to bring all their exclusives games to PC and mobile as well, making the purchase of an X1 useless.

Lets say hypothetically every X1 exclusive comes to PC. X1 still has the advantage of being a cheaper device than a gaming PC. Also, X1 doesn't become less entertaining because those same enjoyable games are else where.

Anyhow, I doubt we'll be seeing heavy hitters on X1 coming but I'm all for it it happening eventually. Windows brings in more money than Playstation and Xbox combined. Don't be surprised if MS gives WIndows better support.

Well, no surprise at all, it has been the vision for MS since several years back but it is W10 that will make it a reality. MS will not care if they sell less consoles than the competition since the XBox fan base will span across PC, console, smartphone and tablet. Great times!


Woah woah, im all for Xbox o PC but moible.  That crap will ruin it all if ms decides to funnel their developers into making mobile crap.  

I think MS so far has released some 50 first party games on smartphone and tablet :).

How will it be useless? I, for example don't have a gaming PC



Slightly off topic, but I really hate business jargon. It makes people sound pretentious and untrustworthy.

On topic, Microsoft is forever in a cycle of joining everything under one brand then splitting it up again. Rebrand, rebrand, rebrand. It's like the way a team of mongooses will move their heads around to confuse predators.

I personally hope that Sony and Nintendo has a an equally clear strategy for the future, like MS. We will need to look towards what platform we choose in the future, not what physical console we own.

I'm not sure if its 50, but certainly made some. Some of which are actually pretty good.

Those twin stick Halo games are well regarded. Even among Steam users.

People won't see the point in buying a $350 machine to play games they can play on a pc or even their mobile. They would rather just buy a PS4, which is what most people are doing these days anyways. 

X1 is still fun to play on, but it doesn't have many selling points or advantages compared to the PS4. You'd think MS would realize that their struggling console needs exclusive exclusives and not just console exclusives to start selling better. But yes, as you said, MS cares about money, and bringing their games to other platforms will earn them lots more money then just keeping them on the X1.
