Thoughts on windows 10 editions of Xbox One games

let's hear your thoughts on this idea.

Are you saying there will actually be games ported to Windows as a separate game ID, or are you just asking if people would like that?

I'd prefer to see them cross buy, whether they are separate title ids would be a bonus.

Any way to drum up potential revenue is good idea and keep the brand alive, oh and the stackable gamer score is also great. I just would just hate when/if they create a games specifically for X1 and then when it's ported over to Windows they get extra content that the X1 will most likely never have.

Obviously, it's a "Good Idea" in the sense that it is a proven method for getting your product into as many hands as possible, thereby increasing your revenue, and likely your profits, while if not decreasing costs, at least optimizing costs. For gamers, it gives you options. But, hasn't this been the SOP for game companies for over a decade, just with new buzz words.

How is that relevant? That isn't "different" that is technology advancing. Those old discs originally could not be pirated, either, and then they could.

What is your point? Again. What is your initial question?

If it is "Should Microsoft fight against douchebag game thieves like myself?" Then yes. It is a good idea.
