That would be awesome! The more PC games the better but again, I do hate the word "exclusive" when it gets used like this. But if they do indeed do it, Tomb Raider will probably be on PC as well after a few months of release which will be awesome if that happens too

Yeah, PC gaming is really picking up now. Never been a better time to own a decent PC!

Well except all the awesome Nintendo and Sony exclusives , would say MS but it feels like half of their games are on PC so...

That's true! Although I really do appreciate that MS puts their games on PC too, lol

if it happens it will be compatible only with windows 8/10, in order to boost sales of the OS.

I would be all over it. Gives me less of a reason to consider getting an XBone.

If cross platform then bring it!

Stupid idea, would take resources away from KI seasons, and would hurt xbox sales. Xbox needs more exclusives, not less.

Cross platform will likely not happen unless its a windows 8/10 game that uses the XBL infrastructure. Definitely will not happen on steam.

Porting doesn't mean Cross-platform.  Microsoft has traditionally been very very bullish about not allowing X-platform play between PC/Console.

Really? Let me see, Shadowrun (a first party game)  was made (2007) with the intent of allowing cross play between Xbox and PC users. But I guess that's just a mirage and doesn't matter.

Which is very sad, why Sony embrace the PC gaming more than MS is insane. 

How many Sony first party game is on PC? You really think Sony published lately or ever more games for PC than MS?

Ironic how you don't remember "MS exclusives are not really exclusives, because they're on PC."

Why now? It has been like that for at least 5+ years.

Considering it never went past the trial phase with regards to X-platform play, yeah, it's a mirage.  But you're right, the plethora of x-platform games from Microsoft really does stand in stark contrast to my statement.  Brilliance, thy name is Goatseye.
