Yeah i can see them lining up to ditch there $1000's game collection to switch to a portal that allows them to buy X1 games and record there steam library that they just ditched.

And if games are cheaper at MS store? You don't have to throw your Steam games away, but maybe you won't buy new ones there simply because MS has better pricing options.

And if some newer games are MS store exclusives?

they musst be realy cheap to beat steam. and they have to do something for the publishers to get them exklusiv on pc. and AAA titles arent as important on pc...

I guess I don't get theses comments that say"they will have a hard time beating Steams prices".  Do any of you think that Valve/Steam owns these games?  Do you think that they have never ending distribution deals for them?

M$ could open a store tomorrow and probably put 75%+ of the same games that are on Steam into it's store, + any and all of the titles that they own while removing those from the Steam store.  M$ can make the same deals that Steam does with these developers to bundle games.

Will M$ do any of this?  Probably not today, as again they don't have the install base with Win10 to even bother.  But, 2-4 years down the line they will and in the meantime, they can slowly start to work the back channels to have these deals in place when they are ready.
