360 - Maybe.
Xbone games? LOLNO.
Xbone games only showed up on Win10 store because MS merged the stores.

Just seeing his name makes me cringe.
It could be 100% accurate and I'd still be skeptical with his name attached to it. Waiting for more confirmation, but not holding out hope at all.

Very skeptical. Will wait until confirmation, if it ever happens.

This would be a megaton, but don't get your hopes up people.

Ah yes, Ben Kuchera.
Isn't he he guy cautioning that early PS4 success meant nothing?
They care about selling consoles, but they also care about getting people who don't buy the console to be in their ecosystem somehow. This would be a way.
They dont care what you buy to play and use their software. Plus that $400 PC wont run as well as the scorpio.

That'd be a fine way to kill the Xbox business.

I think that was Kyle Orland from Ars.
This is technically not possible atm but still... well... stay hyped.
I heard microsoft was going to allow all xbox one games to run on your phone...

Didn't This clown advocate that Xbox one's original drm plan was going to be a good thing for consumers?
I really think this could happen and it makes sense. The Xbox One is just a PC. MS can write the APIs that transparently run Xbox One games on Windows 10. No doubt about that. 360 games are more tricky, but if they port their Xbox One BC to Windows 10 I can't see why it wouldn't work.

This is probably just a side effect of the merge, bit honestly it's just a matter of time now. Ms ia definitely doing this, they have more than hinting it, and their intentions should be clear already.
But maybe he was right? We'll never know because MS never got to explain their vision.

They're unifying stores. PC games popped up on Xbox One too. It's just for social interaction, screenshot sharing and so on.

Hmm...Arthur was very cryptic about MS' conference, saying that he had heard that the conference would be their most defining message for Xbox ad a platform ever, and that it would lay out their "golden brick road" for the future. This may actually be true...

Would 360 games have any visual enhancements? I'd legit buy Vanquish on 360 if so.

I would honestly not be surprised if MS have an Xbox One emulator for Windows 10 or a Win10 port of their 360 emulator.

You are not wrong, through the magic of UWP, Xbox one games can run on your smart watch!

Xbone games? Don't care.
360 games? Hell yes.
360 games? Hell yes.
Its been ongoing for a while
I mean they might be rolling out so they can say "if you bought gears ultimate on pc or on xbox one it is now available for free as cross platform game on the other one!"
But this is a specific title thing...not whatever game ever because computers are just feelings in your heart
