Forums - Microsoft - Early Adoptors - How well do Xbox games run Windows 8?

Zappykins on 29 October 2012

I think there are some games that will run in an Xbox app in Windows 8.  How is it?  What do you get?

I know you have SmartGlass, but what else works?



 

Really not sure I see any point of Consol over PC's since Kinect, Wii and other alternative ways to play have been abandoned. 

Top 50 'most fun' game list coming soon!

 

Tell me a funny joke!

There are games but not very many that are very demanding.

There is:
Fruit Ninja, runs great.
Hydro Thunder...great
err
Minesweeper...great

Perfect, 'Disney Faires' was at the top of my list.

I was hoping it could run things like Assasin's Creed and such, but hey, Peggle should be on there.
