Will xbox cloud games ever be downloadable on pc?
When I try to play xbox cloud games with friends online on my pc 80-90% of the time it's laggy, jittery, delayed, sometimes freezes for a while and goes flat out to catch up to itself and stays good for a short while, picture pixelated and a real pain in the rear to play, if there is no hope for the future for xbox cloud games are going to be made downloadable on pc what can I do to make it better? I got Windows 10, acer aspire 3 laptop, 5ghz wifi with about 30-40mbs (yes I tried ethernet connection but no change in performance at all) I'm using edge browser when I play I keep getting decode, jitter and performance warnings

That's right, GTA V doesn't have cross-platform online so you would only be able to play the PC version.
Unfortunately, your laptop model would not be able to run GTA V. You can try playing via a network cable to try to have a more stable connection on xcloud.

In this case we will do the following you will uninstall xbox
Open the command prompt (admin) and run the commands: sfc /scannow and dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth, wait for the process to finish and restart the computer.
Then perform a clean boot and if you want to uninstall applications that you do not use.
Try on install Xbox

I understand. You'll see the download option in the Microsoft Store or in the Xbox app, which you can install using the link below:
Now, remember, you need to make sure your laptop meets the minimum requirements to open the game and play.

Well, if you have GamePass Ultimate, you can download games, although most of the games are console games. Saves are usually saved in the Xbox Cloud, and not all games sync with your PC.
Now, you're wondering how to download, and if the games will run better on your laptop instead of the cloud. Does that depend on the game in question?
