http://www.gamespot.com/news/6334181/xbox-live-coming-to-windows-8?tag=result%3Btitle%3B0
I recently read on Gamespot that Windows 8 will feature Xbox LIVE, for playing online and other stuff. It will also feature Cross-Platform gaming between the Xbox 360 and Windows 8.
Instead of being called "Games for Windows Live", like previous version have, it will simply be called "Xbox Live for Windows".

Windows 8 will also be bringing Kinect support to PC gaming.

I have heard about this. I am not sure what to think just because windows live and their games were never that great. I also think it seems weird just because why buy a X box? I hope that it turns out cool though I am almost sure it will.

billythekidmonster : People would buy a Xbox because it's meant for gaming, and at a low cost, where as gaming computers cost a lot more money.
That's my reason for getting an Xbox, I don't have the thousand dollars to spend on a gaming computer for myself.

pi0x : I got confused, for some reason I thought that it would be like an X box and a computer. I get it now I guess that I was just putting 2 and 2 together and getting 5. In other words I was thinking one step ahead.

I do think that it is a good idea still.

It's really no surprise to me.

Since I don't have a XBox, I will never try this. I just don't like XBoxs

Well, I've never used Xbox Live, but I know a lot of people who do and I bet that this would be a good reason for a lot of people to pick up Windows 8.

I have not heard of this before and I won't probably won't use this.

I do plan to get Windows 8 once it becomes more stable.

I only use Windows as my OS but I'm not a fan of the Microsoft gaming. As long as they don't tie up a fair amount of the OS with Xbox crap it will be fine.

NameEntry : Well, if you don't like the Xbox style home screen(the tiles), there will be an option to go back to the more familiar desktop style, with superbar and all that. I'm not sure how they will incorporate it into the tiles style, but they say that you will be able to.
