Xbox experience on Windows 10: Network conditions are very limited

To be precise, the streaming game mode like Xbox One is not the first of its kind by Microsoft. We have previously seen similar gaming experiences on Nvidia Shield and PSV TV. The advantage of this mode is that it can free the living room TV from the game screen.

Recently, foreign media T3 shared with us the Xbox One gaming experience based on Windows 10 system. Let us see whether it has achieved the effect we expected.

First, we need to open the Xbox app in Windows 10 and click the "Connect" option on the left. At this time, the Xbox app will search for any Xbox One console connected to the same network (wired or wireless). It should be noted that if the Xbox app cannot be started normally, you need to enter the Windows Store to update the version.

Surprisingly, once the PC is successfully connected to the Xbox One console, the PC's Windows interface will disappear immediately, replaced by the Xbox One's game interface. At this point, we can configure the game screen accordingly, such as picture quality, clarity, and smoothness, etc., all of which are related to our network environment.

T3 testers said that after the game is successfully streamed, the PC speakers will have a whooshing noise, which may be related to the highest game effect he set. In addition, although the Xbox game is loaded almost identically on the two devices, the gaming experience is different.

His biggest experience after running multiple games is that the experience of streaming Xbox One games to the PC screen is not as good as expected. Some very obvious delays make it difficult for players to have a pleasant experience.

Of course, in some less intense and slower-paced games, the running effect is still very smooth. However, when running fast-paced mobile games such as "FIFA 15", the game screen on the PC screen will experience frame drops and delays. Testers said that the streaming mode is more suitable for running some stand-alone games, such as "The Witcher 3" and "Batman: Arkham Knight".

It is worth mentioning that there was no lag in the tester's home network, and after switching to a wired network connection, the delay and frame drops were alleviated. Therefore, we recommend that gamers use wired networks for streaming connections as much as possible.

From the current perspective, the streaming connection between Windows 10 system and Xbox One game console is largely limited by the network environment. Of course, Windows 10 has just been released, and we need to give Microsoft a little more patience for subsequent improvements to make this feature more practical and better.
