Steam or Windows 10/Xbox One

[Opozopef]

What you guys think whould you get it on steam or windows 10 and get a free copy for xbox one.? Im not sure what to get it for. The windows 10 deal is pretty nice to have it for xbox one and pc. Then you just have the steam version.... Hmmm undecided.. What you guys recomend?

Not trying to defend Xbox here, not a fan but have you ever used the Xbox app? it's basically trying to be even better than steam. But I won't move their or buy anymore game anytime soon, mainly because all of my games and friends are here, and I don't support locked down games either. I only play Minecraft there.

"Trying to be" Exactly. Call me once it actually is which will never happen. There is no benefit as a customer to choose anything windows store exclusive unless there are major changes.

I totally agree with that, but honestly their app is looking great so far and I think it would be only a benefit to Xbox owners, who doesn't want to get the game on another platform for free?

you make the pro and cons

but this game is not available for play everywhere nor is it available for Windows 10 store.

Unless you own an Xbox One, there is no benefit for buying this game from the Windows 10 store, since Steam is much better and user friendly.

Then the Windows 10 store, is a pretty good deal for you I guess.

UWP is still a pretty clunky platform to use, and moddability/external fixes, as they become available cannot be integrated into the UWP build. Furthermore, the UWP release feels like a tacked-on decision not unlike the near-release change Quantum Break suffered, and it wouldn't be unreasonable to expect performance losses should Microsoft forcibly require the DX12 API in their build.

I will wait a bit to see comparisons of both ver. I will get a scorpio this year...so getting xbox anywhere matters for me.

Depends, do you want to be able to play your game on win7 and 8 too? I personally would never get anything on the windows store as I think it's trash. Lots of issues and limitations like forced vsync and borderless, limited access to the gamefiles, download speed sucks, win10 only, looks and works more like a mobile appstore than a proper pc client etc...

[SHREDDER]

Steam because Steam is the best platform of the two at least for now. And since most of us dont have xbox but only a pc we dont need xbox version

Since now all Microsoft games are coming to pc and have cross platform multiplayer with xbox why would you buy a scorpio? Instead of spenting all this money on that trash machine just upgrade your pc and enjoy the games with the best graphics and framerate!

[SHREDDER]

The game will be the same on both platforms the major difference is that you dont get steam features if you get it from windows store and that you dont get xbox version if you buy it from steam. But who wants to play it on xbox with the much worse graphics resolution and framerate if he/she has a much stronger pc?

The deal Xbox/PC Windows 10 is way cheaper at least in my country, the Steam deluxe version cost around 2098 MXN and the same deluxe version cost around 1200 MXN which includes both versions (Xbox and PC Windows 10) so for me the obvious choice was the Xbox Anywhere.

I've had at least 3 games in the Xbox Anywhere thing : Killer Instinct, Recore and Gears of War 4 (all of them run at full screen in 1080p btw) and it is a fantastic option if you are a PC/Xbox user.
