UWP Increases Xbox install base significantly.

UWP needs to not only have killer apps but it also needs to be on par with other platforms like Steam in terms of functionality and features... As of right now... It is not even close...

PC gamers in general have high regard for valve and most remember how awful Games for Windows Live was so in order for UWP to work, it needed to be on par with steam in terms of features and functionality from the beginning which it didn't have at all. MS still can turn it around but I don't have confidence on them. They would need to secure killer apps and make developers build games for both UWP and Steam.

If they can make xbox 360 games work with UWP and port Halo MCC + Halo 5 onto UWP, it would be a good start tho.
