I use it all the time to play when the wife is watching reality crap shows. Rest of the time xbox plays to the tv.
I don't want a high end pc. Don't have desire for it either. My surface pro 3 does everything I want in a tiny, portable package. I have gone "smaller" in my world which is why the streaming works great for me. Obviously many others are in the same line of thought for them to do this feature.
I know, was just giving a good example of a worthwhile purpose. Works for me and others but we are obviously not high end gamers who need that big ole pc. I will get fallout 4 and play for months and months or years....and be plenty happy. Happier that I can push to my tablet when wife steals the tv. Is the streaming perfect? Nah. Some stutters but I'm on wifi so that doesn't help. Casual use-Yes, hard core not so much.
I too hope for something where Windows 10 will allow streaming to the Xbox One. I keep swearing I have seen an article about that somewhere. In the meantime, I decided to opt for the pre-preorder release of the Steam Link and will simply use it. I should say that I bought it to test and then will be giving it to my dad so he can abuse my Steam Library (Quake 3 *ahem*).
I have a question for you knowledgeable folks out there. In theory, albeit more of a technical feat, could a VPN be established and then stream from the Xbox 10?
