The official title was such marketing speak that I hope no one blames me for changing it. Seemingly this only means the Xbox app on PC and not stores like Steam.

Lol… Look at you all… These corporations can do heinous shit and then toss you a treat and you come running back. Pathetic.
When something good happens I’ll say good job. When something bad happens I’ll call it out. It’s not like this is going to move back over to windows to get these, but you don’t need to be an asshole.
Explain how this is good for anyone but Microsoft.
How is having access to previously xbox-exclusive games on the PC good for anyone? Seriously?
What? It’s the same issue with not having a physical disc. Microsoft can revoke your access to any game anytime including these Xbox titles.
I’m happy to see titles that were console only becoming available on PC. Even if revoked it opens a path to still being playable on PC if game gets cracked, but initial hurdle is coming to PC in the first place.
You can approve and disapprove of different actions a company takes at the same time. This is a positive move for game preservation (at least on the surface I’m sure M$ will find a way to fuck it up). Still doesn’t redeem them in my eyes, but I’m always for positive actions.
They seem to have taken the least-compatible course for preservation, when emulators work fine already (after many years of false starts due to folks believing that Xbox just had an x86 under the hood).
You’re not wrong, most folks have a memory span of about 5 minutes apparently.
Thank you Asha Shawarma, forgive our gaming sins!
