Actually, Apple is preserving the quality of the experience for gamers. 

Sure, you might be ok with A buggy feel  To your game on an android or Microsoft device SS your game loads app content unevenly first to bandwidth fluctuations. 

Netflix and other movies / TV services may have streaming issues without the adequate bandwidth connection, and Apple still allow those apps.  I don't think it makes sense to not allow games streaming services based in this reason alone.  

Apple must sense that this is just a can of worms. Sure, streaming game video that has your interactivity processed and returned in a nanosecond is actually awesome, but there are too many shady characters (especially Microsoft) who want yo find a way to cause problems for Apples ecosystem. 

Apple is right to be wary. 

I mean look at the ridiculous Epuc situation. 

It’s a clear, cut and dry case. Epic violated the contract and got shut down. Yet they are still battling it out in court because a shady group wants to push their volatile practices onto another company and basically make policy decisions for that other company. That’s not how it works. 

Do you have any evidence that MS could cause problems for the Apple ecosystem?  My experience with MS and mobile / Mac apps have been very good and reliable.  And if we talk about gaming, MS experience is far better than Apple.  I think xCloud would be a great option for us, Apple customers.

I don’t know of any other software provider that produces such poor user experiences than what Microsoft does. Honestly, ever try to navigate their online services?

MS, perhaps before you start poking others you should consider that crap you have put out there. Forget the fact that you have tried and failed with your own devices, browsers, and online stores...

The thing is that MS is pointing that the Apple requirements for game streaming makes a bad experience.  Considering Apple and MS gaming experiences, I see no issues trusting MS.

If Microsoft is complaining about a bad experience then Apple must be on the right track. 

MS is complaining about Apple bad experiences in gaming are valid, considering what you are seeing in Apple Arcade and Apple TV as a gaming console.

If they don’t like that then MS has an alternative: spend a billion creating a mobile platform, spend a billion more marketing it and you’re guaranteed to wipe the iPhone off the face of the earth by 2015. 

MS may not have a mobile platform today, but they have one of the largest gaming platforms (maybe the largest) in the world, and for some reason, you criticize them for trying to bring it to us, Apple customers.  Don't you think that you criticize blame Apple for the terrible gaming experiences we have, specially when compared to MS?

The irony of Microsoft preaching "bad experience".

If we are talking about gaming, MS experiences are miles ahead of Apple.

On day one of loosened rules the complaints from the companies that don't get the full control that they want are rolling in. Hey Microsoft, start your own gaming platform. Oh, wait, you did. To be more fair and balanced, I'll consider MS's offering. I didn't like Apple Arcade. But I appreciate the way Apple is letting this occur. I definitely don't want companies like MS to take over control of the iOS interface and experience. They had multiple chances and they blew it. Now they are a bunch of cry babies.

I'll have no issues MS taking control of iOS gaming experience.  It would be far better than we have with any Apple device today.
