This thread in a nut shell.
But seriously. I am happy that I'll be able to play QB without having to purchase an XBone for it. I am also glad to hear that several other games which will not be launched on PS4 will find their way to PC. But I am also a hypocrite, because I have to admit that I actually would be pissed if games like Uncharted or Gran Turismo would ever find their way to any other platform.

Woah nice, both Quantum Break and Scalebound? There went any need or desire to pick up an XBO.
Scalebound as well?!
I'm ecstatic right now, considering it looks like a promising AAA JRPG and now I'll be able to play it :3
Windows Store is getting some mighty fine support.
I can see Sony franchises on PC only if AAA budgets get out of control, at which point point it might be feasible to release their content on at least one more platform (PC).
They're swimming in PS money right now though, so it probably won't happen anytime soon.

It's evident they have absolutely no trust in their own console.

Great news. Nice to see MS backing up their words for once when it comes to PC Gaming.

Illness is the doctor to whom we pay most heed; to kindness, to knowledge, we make promise only; pain we obey.
Microsoft has really managed to attract some odd fans. How is this coming to PC bad in any way shape or form? It'll sell better short-term on console and long-term on PC. It'll get people invested in the franchise and make this huge investment actually bear fruit. With the Xbox being very US-centric it means that a lot of gamers never getting to experiences it. And unless they start getting their IPs out there they're just diminishing their possible market. Esspecially if they want to grow the market. They want good word of mouth going into the next generation.
Errr why?

More like they now absolutely trust it to hold its own and can confidently release the games on PC too.

Good. GOOD.
Now the only thing of significance that's left on the Xbone is Sunset Overdrive. I hope it will make its way to PC aswell.

Surely microsoft must know that the reasons for owning a xbox one go down by the day.

List wars.
I will never understand this way of thinking
I think it would have already been announced if Microsoft/Insomniac had any plans to bring it to PC/Windows 10.
I think we can safely say this one will not leave the Xbox One console.
I think at this juncture it would be a smart move to bring Halo the MCC to Windows 10. Maybe they can announce that at the February event.

COUGH
Yeah. Not just Microsoft.
People get pretty defensive about their console of choice.
2016, quarter depends on rumor your read.

OP needs to update no Scalebound or Gears 4 confirmed for PC. Gamespot edited in a correction and regrets the error.

Hilarious and sad
They no longer have the confidence that the game will be profitable enough on their console alone. They're backing down like a coward, as they've done so many times before: kinect, the used game policy, et cetera. Not even a day after the announcement there's a thread about people abandoning the console. Even worse, people will continue with this pleading bullshit for other companies as well (there's already one for Sony exclusives).
For the record, I haven't had an Xbox since the OG.
Now I look stupid, I don't care about Quantum Break and was posting this regarding Scalebound.

What a fucking idiot.
At least initially, no
I asked one of the Remedy guys about this over Twitter and he linked me to the page that more or less was all about XBO, W10 and Windows Store integration; https://news.xbox.com/2016/02/11/quantum-break-coming-to-xbox-one-and-windows-10-on-april-5/
Those people take gaming far too seriously.
No big deal guys, chill out it's just video games.
Schadenfreude is a real thing and I know because I'm experiencing it right now.
Owe it to yourself to play Max Payne 2. It's very cheap nowadays and runs on any modern PC with ease and it's still a top 10 of all time shooter. It's their opus.

lmfao
?
Lol he admitted that he didn't even watch the new trailer, he's more worried about PC players having access to the game.
Hilarious.
What a sad sad life platform warriors live. It's like their lives are collapsing lol.

tl;dr
Just built my first gaming PC so this news pleases me very much. In fact owning a PC and an Xbox one I really don't care much at all what MS decides to do. I finally feel content for once in my gaming life. lol
