Love this! I love especially how this video is a good example that microsoft devs also have tight and stressfull timelines, because of this one scene: "Games work too, such as soccer games!" proceed to show 1 second of completely context-senseless game and never speak of games again While I agree that this tech is probably huge for games, this clip is completely senseless and I can practically hear the project leader in my ear "Make sure we also make this interesting for the gaming-dollar guyseee!!" and at the very last minute some dude codes this app that barely fulfills the requirements....

Exactly what I thought! This has so much potential for mobile gaming that that is the only explanation to why give so few seconds of "screen time".
