So yesterday at gamescom Microsoft said "windows 10 will be made available on xbox one".

 

What does this exaclty mean? Is it just a "window 10 like look" + dx12 support?

If I remember right, microsoft also said that a special version of windows 8 would be on xbox one (at launch). Never really noticed that the xbox one had windows 8.

 

Will it be the same again for windwos 10?

OR will they really release windows 10 xbox one? So you can use it like an pc (Office, Steam, Old PC games, Dolphin Emulator)?

If they really made a real windwos 10 experience on xbox one that would change everything. The xbox one would be the ideal mid range pc for a perfectly cheap price. The xbix one would get alot game support (older pc games, emulators and co). The xbox one would still have its exclusive games (halo 5 and co).

But microsoft probl would loose money for online subscription and games. Why buy a Xbox one game for 60 bucks if i can get steamcode for 30 bucks + free online?

So I cant believe they will really support windoiws 10 on xbox one, right?

It wouldn't be midrange, it would easily be low-end.  The gpu is about as strong as a GTX 950 / R9 250X.  These are entry level GPU's.
