Still not nearly enough against PC sadly isn't that slightly ironic though? Consoles streaming to PC? I thought we were trying the opposite. At least it boosts what we can do.
[QUOTE=J!NX;47532911]Still not nearly enough against PC sadly[/QUOTE] Please, show me how I can stream games with low latency to my iPad. I'd love to be able to not have to sit at my desktop to play videogames.

[QUOTE=J!NX;47532930]but... it's the xbox one doing it, not a desktop, which would likely be in a living room anyways? and you can't do it on anything that isn't windows 10 you didn't read the article or even the TITLE, did you? [editline]15th April 2015[/editline] unless you already have a windows 10 tablet you're going to have to go out and buy something nvidia shield and razer already has shit exactly like this, and steam is making something as well PC can ALREADY do this[/QUOTE] I was assuming you meant that you could stream PC games to other devices with your "Still not nearly enough against PC sadly" comment. But I apparently misunderstood what you were trying to say... Which was what exactly? As for the "Including PCs and tablets running Windows 10" thing, I assumed it actually meant "including," and not "only." I misread it, I guess, or their phrasing is misleading. (Although this does mean the $500 Surface 3 and any myriad of Windows laptops can act as a client, which is interesting. It's not quite PC gaming, but it does open up possibilities for people who don't have gaming computers to play games on their computers. Not sure why you'd want to do that, but you can.)

I guess it's a lot like the Wii U second screen thing, right? If someone else wants to watch TV, you can shuffle the game off to your tablet or laptop.

This really isn't for people who value PC gaming and have rigs capable of playing games (and probably have the Xbox One right next to them) or people who have their very own Xbox One. I could see this being useful in families or where multiple people might use the TV. Also you can, with the right positioning and a Surface with controller, play games on the toilet. Who doesn't want that?
[QUOTE=The freeman;47533795]This really isn't for people who value PC gaming and have rigs capable of playing games (and probably have the Xbox One right next to them) or people who have their very own Xbox One.[/QUOTE] My TV and consoles are right next to my PC. I'd rather sit on my computer seat and play that way then lay in my bed. To even play most console games I can't even do that. I have to stand pretty much infront of the TV because the font on console games gets smaller and smaller. So this pretty much is a feature I'd use. Even more if it had somewhat of a KB+M setup.
