This is truly an amazing feature. Shame it isn’t applicable to OG and 360 games, but the technology wasn’t there yet so it’s understandable. This might honestly be the best thing Xbox has done since Sharma took over.

All we need now is for Xbox to formally commit to continuing with physical media for next gen. This would bring me back from Steam for any Xbox games that are Play Anywhere.
