Microsoft rolling out Windows 10

So apparently there's no keyboard and mouse emulation for the xbox streaming thing.

I guess it keeps the playing field the same so you don't have superior keyboard/mouse control on Xbone games (because crossplatform multiplayer). Doesn't matter much to me, I'd prefer to keep my control schemes the same for Xbone.

Oh my god how do you people not understand this. They announced Xbone streaming and they announced cross-platform multiplayer. They are two separate things. You can play the PC game Fable with a keyboard and mouse and still play with Xbox players using controllers. However you cannot use a keyboard and mouse when you are streaming your Xbone to your pc.

It is kind of stupid that you can't use keyboards with the xbone

No it isn't? When you make a game for a console, why in god's name would you implement keyboard / mouse controls?

You might not have a wired controller or the right cord, though.

Xbox One controllers can be plugged in with microUSB to USB cables (modern phone charger cables) so I don't think that should be much of a problem

[Oasis]

My point was that Microsoft is allowing you to stream a game to a machine that has superior controls, and they decided to not let you use them.

Well, people can create programs that allow you to bind keyboard and mouse controls to a controller format and use it on Xbox One streaming.

Yeah, but its clearly more fun to complain that a billion dollar company isn't doing its best when it does something.
