We expected it to roll out at some point this week, but Microsoft has certainly kept us hanging on to the very end. It's due to roll out at 2 p.m. Pacific today, Feb. 25, but that'll be anything from 10 p.m. in the UK to Feb. 26 in other parts of the world.

So if you're looking for something to do this weekend, you can go ahead and get your stream on.
