    With all eyes on the launch of new Samsung devices, it's easy to overlook other things.

    Cloud-gaming platforms are the true enemy, says Microsoft's Phil Spencer

    Consoles giants should make peace and not war, at least that what Microsoft seems to be saying.

To that end, Microsoft could be looking to form a unified front with its long-time console competitors - Nintendo and Sony.

  • Xbox and PC Games Coming to Android and iOS

    Xbox and PC Games Coming to Android and iOS

    Smartphone game maker Klab, Inc has made a deal with Microsoft that may soon allow us to play Xbox and Windows PC games (under the Microsoft banner) to be ported over to iOS and Android devices. According to rumours, these games may soon be available for iOS and Android later in 2013. So far the first game scheduled to come from this deal is rumoured to be "Age of Empires" and it is expected to be free to play (or perhaps just the first few levels).

    While Windows Phone does have access to Xbox games in general, the selection of titles for the Windows Phone platform is relatviely limited. If this deal does go through well, and there are a whole bunch of things which can go wrong (too difficult to port over, bad port, too much like an emulator etc.) then we can expect even more games from other platforms or brands perhaps making their way to iOS and Android devices in the not so far future. Stay tuned, we'll keep you posted.
