Acer Extend Lets You Stream Android Devices to Windows 8

Acer Extend is an upcoming app which lets users stream Android phones and tablet screens to Windows 8 PCs and tablets. With Extend, you can play an Android game on your PC screen via a W-Fi connection or through a USB cable.

You can stream Android games to your PC's screen, though it has been reported that lag can be an issue, at least when connected via Wi-Fi. It also offers an easy drag and drop method of file transferring. As of posting there is no release date set, the app will only be available on Windows 8 so streaming is not an option to those with older operating systems, sorry Windows 95 elitists, or those with Linux.
