Nice surprise. Recore looks good.
Interesting. I'm probably one of 6 people who actually doesn't mind the Microsoft Store, so I already bought it. But good for those who didn't.
Finally!
Strange, I'm guessing THQ Nordic will handle any of the business MS doesn't want to bother doing.
And you think MS and Valve were in direct competition with each other. MS doing what they do best and thats called sharing. No suprise either, Recore etc didnt sell too well so nornally this is a regular strategy for the mega corp to milk more sales out of there games.
Hard to share when you never owned the rights
Are you sure about that? Care to explain all the other games MS released on Steam like Killer Instinct, Halo Wars etc. I can understand Rush and Disney adventures are not MS ips but thats 2 out of 5 on that list.
The Windows Store is a competitor with Steam given they do offers some of the same content. But its not designed to be a direct competitor. If anything, MS is hoping people simply use both. However, content stays exclusive or timed exclusive because MS want people using their app.
