I am on mobile, so I will try to explain as best I can using this terrible keyboard.
Edit: Also, cross-buy will be enabled. Anyone can now side-load custom software on the Xbox. And their new games (Forza and Gears of War) are being coded for PC.
To sum up the article, Phil Spencer talks about the Xbox app on PC. How it's going to allow cross-platform play and all that. He then drops the bombshell that Xbox games will now be designed to work on the PC. They say that a unified console is not the best gaming experience and they plan on releasing frequent Xbox updates that follow the iPhone model of annual hardware revisions.
I also think it's kind of funny that they mention how, since the Xbox and PC are now a unified console experience with interchangeable apps, they now have the best selling gaming platform.
I am sure that there is more to talk about, but I have a class starting in ten minutes and need to leave the coffe shop.
Edit: Link because I forgot.
