What really sucks in a lot of peoples' circumstances is they bought the PS4 out of personal preference, but now they're missing out on a big part of Windows 10 just because they didn't buy the Xbox. It would have been nice if they supported some sort of Playstation Network app but I completely understand them not doing that due to competition; but it still would have been nice.

Edit: After finishing the video, I thought about it a little bit and I realized how detrimental this would be to the first person shooter scene. People using mouse and keyboard in most cases will have far better accuracy than someone running a stock Xbox controller. In this case, Xbox players will come at a massive disadvantage, and players running Windows 10 playing the new Call of Duty will have a huge advantage and most people will stop getting the game for Xbox and just get it for their Windows PC.

I still feel it's a superior console but this might sway me into having to pick up an Xbox One.

Not to mention the aimbots though.

Depends on latency. If it takes forever and a half to stream the game to PC, aim would likely be off, and even a little lag can fuck you.

This is very neat. As long as Windows 10 is free, I will get it. Currently, I have Windows 8.1. I probably won't ever get an Xbox though. I much prefer PC gaming; the only reason being my preference towards the keyboard and mouse.
