    So I'm waiting to have my account enabled for Xbox One at the moment, but I've seen around the forums that you can just build Windows Store (UWP) and deploy that to the Xbox One.

    What's the difference?

    I've heard something along the lines of UWP only getting access to small portion to the CPU and Memory? Can someone clarify this

    And the GPU too. And it has a different API surface, and it only supports DirectX 11 feature level 10 when ran in Xbox. That's about it.
