No? The xbox games are native for Windows 10.

Yes, as internet speeds increase and technology gets better streaming will become the main way to play. It will take a couple decades but it is inevitable.

But why streaming when you can easily do a native thing?
>>385536759
yeah maybe in a hundred years lel

So game devs can cut you off when you don't pay your subscription fee

>as internet speeds increase and technology gets better
bloat and bullshit will increase right along with it and we'll be fucking nowhere, as it's always been.

Native thing requires downloading 50GB games and also downloading the updates

Eventually is the keyword there. Streaming games wont be mainstream for maybe another 15-20 years tops. Most peoples internet just isn't fast enough to handle that yet. When it does happen though I can see owning individual games becoming less common as people simply subscribe to PS Now or other streaming services like they currently do with Netflix etc.
