Let's compare it to the PS4, the most popular consoles. The PS4 is 250+60 a year, the stadia is half the price not including online and less than a quarter including 5 years of it (the basic streaming is literally free). Convenience wise stadia wins by a mile, games wise they both get all the mainstream ones, multiplayer games are by far most popular on both so needing the internet isn't an issue. Performance wise the stadias likely shit but how is that different to the PS4?

Why the fuck would you buy the PS4/Xbox one instead? Literally no reason, I swear it's going to be huge.

I unironically want to try the same thing from Shadow (just google shadow gaming if you're curious)
Everything else looks like it's still in beta or just looks not good. Shadow can stream at 50 Mbps which is better than most of the rest. From what I've watched and read, the latency is pretty minor and only matters if you're a competitivefag that gets 1ms monitors and meme mouses which isn't me. I hate using Windows and use Linux as much as I can but I need vidya and it seems like a decent compromise. $300/year isn't terrible for a high-end gaming PC I don't think. I haven't actually been able to try it yet though because it isn't available in Florida.

It's "up to 1080p" "60fps", so basically 720p 60 FPS which is considerably better than the PS4/Xbox. Can't see lag being too bad.

Can I also just reiterate this is literally free after you've bought the $100 controller/TV adaptor, whereas the PS4/Xbox are more than double the price and you have to pay 60 a year to even use them.

>$300/year
The "4k 60fps" version is $120 a year, the version similar to the base PS4/Xbox is literally free.

hardware output is currently more than sufficient - its the games that are partially "shat out" with 0 effort or optimization - enjoy the beta faggots

+ "everyone has good enough internet for 720p video streams"

apparently you have no idea ...

meanwhile games on phones are already the biggest in the "game industry" - and hardware for phones keeps getting better as well which is disgusting ... but it is what it is

good enough+cheap hardware paired with mainstream games most faggits play and tons of platform alternatives that are not going to let google jew them out of business, tons of previously tried "interwebs stream gayming that failed - for obvious reasons"

and you know it'll be DOA - dead on arrival

if they aren't totally retarded they'll see it coming and silently scrap it

I don't know what this is but I do know as a casual gamer that games haven't been gotten respiece demanding enough for me to upgrade my pc in 6 years and I'm still happy with my xbox360 if I want to shoot at something. Doesn't feel like things have changed enough for me to bother spending 1 grand on a new rig, new controllers, and games which will inevitably be rolled out with the new age half-finished DLC model.

I won’t use a wireless mouse because of ~8ms of latency. Variable latency is even worse than extremely high latency. Literally its been tried a bunch of times and it has never worked.

I'm a computer hardware engineer. You're a retard, please stop giving your opinions on tech. Yes this stuff will probably be the future, but right now, early adoption is going to be shit. Don't encourage people to buy it.

You're making the wrong comparison. Google isn't trying to compete with the PS4, they're trying to compete with the Switch. The combination of technical limitations and cheap pricing makes "really casual gamers" the obvious target demo. Nintendo already has that market cornered, because they figured out what they actually want - "friendly" devices and raw fun-factor. Google is just not offering enough of what those people really want to claim any substantial chunk of that market-share.

Pitching an early-adopter-stage technology like Cloud Gaming directly to the casual segment of the market just doesn't make any sense at all.

I was a big Halo 2/3 player. The only reason I bought the Xbox One was to play Halo 5, which sucked. The only reason I'll buy the new Xbox is to play Halo Infinite, which will probably suck as well.

For some reason no other games or consoles did it for me.
