Topic: Planned on using your PC to play Xbox games? NOT SO FAST!

Looks like Microsoft has revised their Play Anywhere initiative. The original statement was...

Every new title published from Microsoft Studios will support Xbox Play Anywhere and will be easily accessible in the Windows Store.

... to...

Every new title published from Microsoft Studios that we showed onstage at E3 this year [emphasis added] will support Xbox Play Anywhere and will be easily accessible in the Windows Store.

Looks like MS came to their senses. You can't give everything to PC goons if you want to win a console war. Play Anywhere will probably linger around until the Scorpio drops, and then Xbox will be keeping exclusives to themselves again.

Sounds like PC owners rejoiced a little too much. You think MS would be that stupid? To let you play their games without buying their hardware and not paying for Xbox Live forever? Get real! MS is ready to battle in the console space again. In order to do that, you gotta lay a little bait here and there until you can get everyone to jump on your platform.

Maybe Microsoft wants out of the console scene.

That seems unlikely, since they can't seem to make money off of Windows anymore.

Yeah, it's probably the exact opposite. They probably think they can make more money by putting those gaems on the XBL Arcade.

And they're giving it away for free just to get people to upgrade.

Well if they actually charged my grandpa to upgrade his laptop to 10 while he was on the phone trying to get his wifi fixed, I'm gonna be (even more) pissed.
