this does a few things for Microsoft:

1) this ensures that the Xbox One will continue to have more application support then the PS4 (similar to how the 360 has much more app support when compared to the PS3).. applications matter.. heck, the UFC app on 360 was a contributing factor in me finally picking one up.. Having the lion's share of new and popular applications will end up being a selling point for the console just like apple's "there's an app for that" campain a few years ago.

2) this strenghtens the Microsoft ecosystem as a whole. if you're a developer and want to make an app for Windows 8, it's only a relatively short process to bring that app to the Xbox One (and also Windows Phone 8 for that matter).. by making it easy for developers to "write once and distribute to all (XB1, Win8, WP8)" you ensure the health of weaker/newer platforms by leveraging them against the strength of your primary platform (the PC).

3) this gets them in a prime position to combat Google and Apple when they eventually join the video game console market and the "console wars" turns into the "ecosystem wars"..

regardless of your feelings about Windows 8, this was a very smart and future proofing move by Microsoft.

i think there will be self publishing, just a different scheme of things.    This today is very good news as far as I see it.

This is definitely not a feature. If anything, my experience with windows 8 tells me this will be a negative for the xboxone instead of a positive.

There aren't much interesting games for Windows 8 metro side, but ability to run some of the apps would be very nice. Microsoft should tighter integrate WP, W8 and XO. The full blown warfare between the company's divisions needs to end if they ever hope to realize their vision for future devices. Hopefully incoming Balmer's shape up will truly redefine how all divisions work together.

It's great on hybrids and good on laptops. For desktops though...unless you have one of those crazy touch-based All-in-Ones it is pretty much useless.

M$ new what they were doing. It is now being reported that Google is building a console. I'm sure it will have entertainment functionality built into it. They knew that Sony wasn't the real threat this gen. It is Google and Apple. Your OS and entertainment and media hub is coming to the TV.

Because it runs better than Windows 7. Consider it a streamlined 7. The real question is why wouldn't you run it. If you don't want to use Metro don't. Its really that easy.

Yeah, that one click is such a terrible burden. ;)

8.1 will have boot to desktop option anyway.

[QUOTE="AD216"][QUOTE="princeofshapeir"][QUOTE="AD216"] lmao clearly the best os hands down although apple as a company is corrupt af

iOS is shit. Jelly Bean is perfect.

lmao jelly bean is far from perfect. ios 6.3.1 is clearly the best out as far as os goes. and from what i've seen, 7 is on a different level.

Even though I very much appreciate Apple's work in the past, I find iOS 7 to look really Androidish which is a bad evolution! Why changing a design that worked so well for years? I will stick with iOS 6!
