  1. Has anyone tried Nativra? Running Windows PC games natively on Xbox Series X


    I came across this open-source project on GitHub called Nativra.

    It’s an experimental Xbox Dev Mode app that attempts to run Windows PC games directly on Xbox Series X|S, without streaming or cloud gaming.

    The project currently has Seraph's Last Stand running at 60 FPS with controller support. It loads the Windows executable through a UWP app and bridges the APIs required by the game.

    It’s still very early and compatibility is limited, but this seems like a pretty interesting use of Dev Mode.

    Has anyone here tried it or experimented with running Win32 games on Xbox Dev Mode?

    Why can’t Starfield be downloaded on Xbox One X

    That game hasn't been released for the One. Just the Series S/X and PC. So it's not available to install on any version of the One. The One's hardware is not powerful enough to natively run the game.

    Why are there 5 to 10 min wait times for xcloud connection of GPu games?

    An Xbox Series X can run 4 sessions of the Xbox one version compared to one of the series X version. so if you're attempting to play an Xbox one native game on the cloud, you will always have greater success simply because there are more slots available to you

    Each and every cloud session has an Xbox series X on the other end

    AOE 2 forWindows

    You're already running the game natively, Roger.

    AOE2 and basically any game has a dedicated Windows and Xbox console version. So you're not emulating the game or something like that.

    The Xbox PC app and their dependencies is just how Microsoft decided to brand their gaming marketplace on PC.

    Are we being lied to about the performance of the next generation consoles

    Dude those so called 1080 games are not even native 1080 you need to educate yourself before you comment and I've read nothing wrong and im not the only person that feels this way the series s was advertised as a 2k 120hz console but most games are not even running that at a native resolution its up scaled that's why stuff looks blurry no duh the consoles have different hardware i have both xbox series s and x and a pc with a 2060 and the series x is advertised as 4k 120hz but barely any games can do that sooo is Microsoft lying about what the consoles can do or is the game developers too slow to make a decent running game

    xbox game pass on pc

    ... Xbox Play Anywhere is an official Xbox emulator for PCs running Windows 10. Games that are also on Xbox and are going to play on PC are not a PC platform!
    Xbox Play Anywhere is NOT an emulator. The Xbox Play Anywhere games are compiled for the Windows 10 PC platform as well as Xbox. There is no emulation going on, which would unnecessarily slow down the games. They run natively on Windows 10, not an emulated
    Xbox environment.
