    Cross-Buy


    Quite Simply: Why doesn't Microsoft do it? Max The Curse of the Brotherhood looks like a fun game. I'd buy it right now if I knew I'd get it free when I got my Xbox One. But as I plan to get Xbox One within the year, I can wait. I'd invest more into
    the Xbox Ecosystem if titles were Cross-buy.

    :)

    Cross-Buy/Cross-Play Games Suggestion

    I personally think that these games should be cross-buy.

    I own these games digital on the Xbox One and would like to download them to my windows 10 pc without paying for them again (this which is considered cross-buy)

    Gears of War Ultimate Edition (currently cross-play only)

    Halo Master Chief Collection (currently cross-play only)

    Halo 5 (currently cross-play only)

    Cross-Buy

    I think the question to ask is if it's a good deal for the dev and for MS. If cross-buy is losing Sony money, it's not a good idea to replicate. I'm not sure Mac and Linux users are enough of a percentage on Steam to make a comparison.

    I like the idea, though I also admit that I don't use my cross-buys cross-console. If I played it once, I'm not keen on playing it again in general.

    I've bought games specifically because they were cross-buy. For example, I bought several Zen Pinball tables on the PS3 because they were available on the PS4. I understand you don't play things cross-console, but I find some games are good enough, or
    graphically improved enough to make it worth it. Like Flower on the PS3 to the PS4. And I've heard good things about Max, so I'd play it now, then play it again when I got the Xbox One.

    Your world is not cross-platform, and non-exclusive items you buy in the marketplace can be cross-platform

    Going form Game Pass Ultimate to steam and preorder content transfer

    Cross play and cross saves are possible between steam and windows store versions. You just can’t buy on steam then play on Xbox.
