Microsoft could make their own version of the xbox, or they could certify third party manufacturers as being "xbox certified" which means all the hardware is supported for xbox games. They might literally follow the exact same model Steam followed, which would make far more sense if they're trying to make their console more like a PC. |
I don't know anything. But I am adament that they wouldn't build the framework for a more closed PC platform, integrate that with their existing closed hardware playform, only to allow other manufacturers to do something that is counter intuitive to a closed platform.
So no, I don't know this. But I have enough faith in my ability to use common sense and deductive reasoning to guess be pretty sure they won't at all do what Steam did.
