Windows 8 to Play Xbox 360 Games?

Windows 8 users will be able to play Xbox 360 games on their PC. If you are thinking that why Microsoft would do that? Actually Since software giant plans to launch Xbox 720 (not the real name) in few years, Xbox 360 game sales on PC will not only give company additional revenue but will also extend current generation hardware lifespan.

According to our sources, Xbox 360 on PC will have a subscription fee (just like Xbox Live). However, when it comes to online gaming, it will use Windows Live Marketplace and as a result, PC owners will not be able to compete against console owners (at least in initial stage), due to plausible frustrations (mouse vs. controller).

However we are not sure about this news that "would Microsoft would do that or not" because its only a rumor.
