porting from windows 8 to xbox1 in a day

Win8 game to X1 game in a day theory

[quote user="dpoet"]

The fact xbox1 uses windows 8 as one of its operating systems could and up a selling point. It means you can devlope a game for windows and xbox. Remember one guy playing the crew at E3 was on a tablet. Indie games are going there must be a reason, maybe
it is that most games developed for windows 8 will just work on xbox1. There is a big devs conference next week MS advertising it as windows, xbox, windows phone, coming together. So who knows the winner over the long term. I came away from PSN because despite
similar hardware psn is not as good as live, and you need paid subscription for PS4.

The only thing that interests me about Windows 8 is that it is the only system that supports DirectX 11.1...

Windows 10 recently upgrade from Windows 8 also cant open ports on my router maybe thats the reason?

The Xbox1's optical port has to be turned on in settings. If I remember correctly, I haven't tried because my headphones are connected to TVs optical port, but now that Xbox1 multitasks very well I will use netflix on Xbox1 and connect my soundbar back to
the TVs optical port, and headphones to Xbox1s optical since I only use when gaming. Hope this helps
