Convince Microsoft Windows 8 in Game Advantage


Washington - While the developers worry about the game happen to PC gaming after the arrival of Windows 8, Microsoft is trying to assuage such concerns by indulgence in the benefits of Windows 8.

So far, Windows first Xbox game titles that will be present as we quoted from Venture Beat, Friday (10/08/2012) is Minesweeper, Mahjong Solitaire Collection and Microsoft.

Part of the process do not like game developers are from recent rebranding of the game that Microsoft Windows 8. All games will be made by developers under the banner of 'Xbox Windows' which involves the name of the popular game console from Microsoft.

"With Xbox on Windows 8, we created an easy entry point into the type of entertainment you will enjoy, including games," said Microsoft spokesman in a statement.

Windows Xbox games will also be integrated with the Xbox Live service, offering to get the achievement gamerscore points in every game played by the user.

Actually there is no new thing to say Microsoft to ease concerns about the developers making games for Windows 8. Response to Microsoft apparently intended to further convince them.

"Application of games usually have avatars, profiles, friends and gamerscore that lets users explore the avatar of your friends," he added.

In order to appear in Windows Store, the game should get a Microsoft certification and are required to support the controller, integration with Xbox Live and other usability features. This could limit the number of developers and time-consuming and not cost a bit.

One of the biggest fears are the developers, Windows 8 will be a closed platform for games because it takes a long certification process.

Meanwhile, Game Developers Worry Problems Windows 8 ..

While the world of computing and consumer is not looking forward to Windows 8 officially released, one of a growing segment, namely in the realm of games, it seems pessimistic to welcome the arrival of Windows 8.

One name that is well respected in the industry - those who have expressed concern - is Gabe Newell, founder of video game development company Valve. He even looks like a saw as a disaster, each time discussing Windows 8.

Reportedly, more and more game developers are feeling anxious about Windows 8. They worry about the effect of the operating system (OS) Microsoft's latest PC game is against the current industry continues to grow.

Chris Delay of game developers introversion was expressing a similar response. "I really hate the general concept of 'closing down' Windows, and indeed this seems the intended direction of Microsoft," he said.

Brad Wardell of Stardock game developers also showed the same attitude with Newell. "Just hope the market may be able to adapt to any strategy to try to apply Microsoft via Windows 8," said Wardell told us from Tech Radar, Friday (10/08/2012).

The main problem with the Windows 8 game developers are continuing to bring the possibility of a closed platform. In the scenario Microsoft, games and all other software will only be available in Windows Store.

"Nothing is more frightening than to imagine that one day, all Windows applications may be certified by Microsoft before it was released and installed on the user's computer," he continued.
