I use Steam for streaming games from my PC to a less powerful laptop (just one core, no dedicated GPU). Both devices connect via a wired link and I get a smooth experience. I think it would work even better with an Xbox One since it won’t be handling the decoding, which will stay on my PC. If I’m playing games on my PC and get bored, I don’t have to switch to Xbox exclusives. P.S. I don’t own an Xbox One, but even without it I can see why this setup is helpful.
Most Xbox titles are available on PC, with the notable exceptions being Forza 2 and Sunset Overdrive. I might have been a bit too strict about only playing exclusives, as they’re actually quite useful. I’d probably agree with TB on that point.
It is nice that Microsoft is beginning to integrate pc gaming and xbox gaming together. No real reason to complain when you are given more options.
I think this is a cool feature. It would be nice if it went both ways though. And I don't find it completely useless. It can stream to any Windows 10 PC. There are a lot of people out there who do not have a gaming laptop or gaming PC. This is a perfect match for those people. For example: I have a Surface Pro 3. It does not handle highly detailed games very well and if I do play games it kills my battery life. I own an Xbox One. So now I will just stream my game to my Surface so I can play upstairs while my spouse watches a movie. Perfect! Keep in mind I recently bought a gaming PC so this doesn't mean much to myself other than streaming exclusive games to my Surface. But to say it is useless just isn't true when there are several people out there who can take advantage of something like this since they do not have a PC that has more graphical performance than the Xbox One. Of course it isn't as cool for us PC gamers. But for the general public this is pretty awesome.
actually it would be a really nice feature, i have kids so have my Xbox on and playing on my PC would be actually nice. Does it support KB/M input for streaming? because that would be out right amazing.
