7 months agoTo be honest they’ve been doing this for a while with backwards compatibility so it’s continuation to make it forwards compatible as well. It’s a bummer they’re not following up with physical copies but it’s clear there’s been a lack of demand for Xbox games. Seems like they want to go the Steam route which I’m all for.
I really just don’t want to ecosystem to die. I’ve been collecting achievement, doing gamepass etc for a long time. The only way I can see them still doing that moving forward is vastly changing how they approach their PC store. Make a big picture mode that basically simulates the current Xbox OS. They had Windows Media Center before and Metro UI. I’m surprised it’s not happened yet.
