Windows 10 bundled with "Steam Killer"

Not really excited, I don't like the look of this app

All I can see happening is the Microsoft fanboys backing Microsoft up the ass as if it's going to rule PC just like GFWL 'apparently' ruled PC when it was up. Generalizing over, I can't see this doing very well. Steam is successful for a reason.

Its in win8 alrrady

The only thing MS could do to Windows to kill Steam is include a bad update for MSE.

I wouldn't call MS giving a second try to their GFWL experiment a Steam Killer... gonna take a lot more than that for Steam to fall.

Windows 10.
One of the most succesful OSs is Windows 7.

10-7=3.

Dota 3 confirmed.

I thought you meant an application that would cripple Steam.

LOL "steamkiller" be serious dude :))

i'm scared already

Microsoft doing another hardwork into another thing that ppl will hate, good job Microsoft.

If this means cheaper games - good luck Microsoft. Healthy competition is always welcome.

Just read THIS (original founder of Xbox app in W10). It says nothing about Xbox games working on Windows. It's just Xbox Live app to buy games for Xbox and using social features.

Microsoft can barely compete with Sony(at least outside the US), leave it alone with Steam...

Just going to be gfwl 2.0, it will get next to no support and completely dropped in a year or two then they will ignore pc gaming completely for a few years then they will try gfwl 3.0. It is the same cycle with them.

I wonder when they will realize that we don't want xbox live or some other app/store on pc. We want games like Halo.

no offense OP but ooh you kids nowadays :')

how is this gonna kill steam?? i hightly doubt this will kill steam, however windows 10 seems really promising so far. :P

It wouldn't be a Steam Killer even if the entire Xbox One (or 360 as well, or even original in addition to those 2) libraries were available to play on PC through that somehow.

Most people here apparently don't understand what this is.

It's the profile page when you are signed in to xbox.com displayed in a mobile phone style window on your PC. i.e. this: https://live.xbox.com/en-US/Home?xr=socialtwistnav It has nothing to do with games distribution like Steam, nor playing Xbox games on PC.

We already have this "on PC", it's just a new view as an app/widget/whatever for the already existent Xbox players profile screen linked above.

According to the article, "The Windows Store in Windows 10 build 9901 has also been tweaked thanks to a new beta app that’s built-in. Unlike the current store, music and film / TV shows are included alongside apps and games. This could mean Microsoft is closer to integrating its Xbox Music and Xbox Video stores into the main Windows Store to offer all content in a single location."
