Microsoft's Windows Live lets you play cross platform games with Xbox players
As of February 2014 there is no Xbox controller software available for Windows 8 only Windows 7.
no you can only play others on the same network
Yes, I play Minecraft on my Windows 8.
No as they are 2 different systems you would need Minecraft Pocket Edition for the windows phone. There has also been no plans to do a cross-play due to the impracticalities of going from a console to a phone.
Sadly no, you can only play it on Xbox 360.
no it cannot
possible, i mean like windows 8 can play some xbox 360 arcade games. its all up to microsoft, but an xbox 360 emulator is needed. we just have to wait for such a software to come out.
