One of the details of today's special Windows 10 event in Redmond, Washington, was the reveal of how the next operating system from Microsoft will be linked via app to the Xbox One.
Phil Spencer opened his presentation by stating that Xbox believe that it has identified several ways to improve PC gaming, including a new app that will make gaming on Windows 10 even more "social and interactive".
My Games will reflect the games you play across all devices. It will also include your friends list, messages and activity feed, so you can keep in touch with your friends and feed whilst you're out and about, which includes the use of text and voice chat. You can also bring up the Xbox UI from your PC and power your console should you wish.
And that's not all. Windows 10 will allow streaming of Xbox games to PC, and a DVR feature will enable you to grab the last 30 seconds of gameplay from any Windows games - including Steam titles. You can jump into the Xbox app, edit your video, and then share across your social networks.
Release information is not known at this time, but more details are expected to follow at GDC.
