Windows 10 game streaming and more

Game streaming is a gaming world  buzz word and Xbox One will join the trend with its Windows 10 update. Microsoft has confirmed that the update will rolls out  on 12 November.

The new operating system will bring Xbox One closer to the PC and notebook gamers and with a game stream from your PC, you can expect to see the Game DVR option too.

Not all the options preveiously shown off by Microsoft will make to this update. The company already said that Cortana won’t be ready in 2015 update. The Cortana for Xbox One is expected during  of 2016.

Xbox One home interface will look a lot like Windows 10 after the update. The Home interface has been modified and rearranged to reassemble the Windows 10 experience on desktop, notebook and tablets.

The update brings a heavier emphasis on text, large screen optimisation. There is vertical scrolling for the home screen and notification shortcuts can be pulled out of a side panel .

The game DVR is something that has been missing on the Xbox One. This might mean that the developers will have an easier job to port the games from Windows 10 to Xbox One and vice versa. It is not clear if this update can help Microsoft to increase the console sales now since Sony just dropped the price of PlayStation 4 down to 320 Euros.
