Microsoft's streaming service has been running for a few years. I can play games I already own on a web browser, or a phone without having to buy a special copy like stadia required.
I can purchase any halo game on steam. I can play Minecraft on pretty much every device ever made. When playing those games I've been able to cross play multiplayer across platforms for years.
This acquisition is going to far and is rightfully being blocked, but I feel like everyone has a hate boner for Microsoft while forgetting how actually walled off Sony and Nintendo have been forever.
I can't even play last generations games on my switch (without repurchasing). Sony didn't allow cross play until just recently and they're still the kings of exclusives.
