4K?

riiiiiight

 

[Javier]

Lol at the one guy clapping for 8K

Click to shrink...

the only guy with an 8k monitor or tv.

 

[Deleted member 43077]

8K 120fps lmao lets get it boys!

 

[2shd]

If I can stream 4k60, and the price is right, I can deal with some latency in some single player games where I'd normally move on once I finish it.

 

[Deleted member 48897]

8K? For people who need a 100" TV, I guess that makes sense. Weird that nobody thinks about diminishing returns when it comes to these numbers

 

[Orion514]

This has GOTTA be expensive for consumer

 

[nachum00]

No thanks

 

[SharpX68K]

Now show us Raytracing.

 

[Danthrax]

no fighting games on stadia

Click to shrink...

pretty much

good luck playing FPS multiplayer, too

 

[TitlePending]

Good grief -- how much bandwidth is this service going to suck up?!

 

[Peleo]

The applause after every phrase just makes me appreciate Nintendo Directs even more.

 

[rsfour]

Where's 21:9

 

[Galactic Specter]

4K resolution is cool and all but can my shitty internet handle this.

 

[thecouncil]

Ha. Should've gone for 16K, 240fps.

 

[DeoGame]

Share straight to youtube. Ok.

 

[fick]

thank fuck I'm getting gigabit. I'm in

 

[mreastman]

The concept, but why would I play with stadia over xbox +PlayStation.

Click to shrink...

I don't think it's meant for you

 

[LordofPwn]

back of the room doing a hell of a job trying to hype the room. taking a page out of Microsoft's playbook from years ago.

 

[DrROBschiz]

Instantly stream your gameplay is nice

 

[NotLiquid]

putting the konami code on the controller is like the ultimate "man, us gamers huh" thing you could do

 

[PIMPBYBLUD]

Data caps be damned. Streaming is always going to be an issue for those with caps which sucks.

 

[Wolf of Yharnam]

Jesus christ, you need a fucking NASA internet connection for this

 

[Deleted member 42]

This thing is going to MURDER data caps

 

[Ricker]

OnLive was 10 years too early.

Click to shrink...

Yep...

 

[Durante]

Can use your own controller or M/KB? O hell yeah

Click to shrink...

Do you really want to play a remotely streamed game with M/KB input? I mean, maybe if you live next to a datacenter.

Controller input is significantly more forgiving in terms of lag.

 

[DoubleTake]

Since the controller is wifi, it's competing with other devices in the area. This IS a little worrisome, but I'm interested to seeing it in my home.

Click to shrink...

Dude there was terrible lag with the mouse as well.

 

[SweetVermouth]

Since the controller is wifi, it's competing with other devices in the area. This IS a little worrisome, but I'm interested to seeing it in my home.

Click to shrink...

nah the lag comes mainly from the fact everything runs on a google server. Good luck playing a game with a ping of 100ms.

 

[Deleted member 40133]

OOOOH YOU JUST GOT BUUUURNED

Click to shrink...

Input lag *drops mic*

 

[OrdinaryPrime]

This is super impressive.

Edit: as usual, Era is negative about something different. The one thing Era is good at is being wrong lol

Click to shrink...

Super impressive*

*With easily seen input lag and compression artifacting

 

[Deleted member 862]

8K 120FPS

why you lying

 

[EightBitNate]

this has the potential to wipe out local gaming as a thing. it's the most dystopian future for games imaginable.

Click to shrink...

And this is the first iteration of it. Who's to say mods aren't possible in the future?

 

[Alucrid]

my precious gaming memories

 

[tyfon]

"Highest possible quality..." At youtube lol.

They compress the crap out of any 4k videos I've sent to them even if they were close to lossless for me locally.

 

[ekim]

I wonder how Xcloud will compare to this.

 

[Deleted member 32822]

Nintendo filing for bankruptcy.

 

[Deleted member 135]

Google is total bullshitting or they expect you to have multi-gigabit fiber.

 

[francium87]

competition is always good
will be rooting for microsoft to match/upend this

 

[Deleted member 27793]

4k? Sure Jan.

 

[Firima]

up to 120+ fps? But....why? It's going to make the latency WAY more obvious, and if you need to play at that resolution, you're going to want low latency anyway.

 

[KratosEnergyDrink]

This is pretty damn insane. Not my thing, but I'm impressed by it.

Click to shrink...

It's just game streaming, not much new here, besides YouTube integration. And it includes all the well known flaws of game streaming.

 

[AllMight1]

I think it looks pretty awesome if it actually works as advertised. I do not think its meant to take over and be the only device we use. I look at this as a nice alternative for those on the go or that do not want to purchase a home console or PC.

It wont replace gaming consoles, but it will be a nice addition to the cast.

Click to shrink...

more like for casuals (the bigger audience) that don't care about physical content and just want to play

 

[Deleted member 22750]

they cant even stream this presentation to me

how the fuck am I gonna play a game

 

[Bjones]

Just click play... sign up.. input your credit card info.. click buy., wait for it to process.. then you are instantly playing the game.

 

[WakaWaka]

Know we know why all the graphics cards were sold out, it wasn't bitcoin mining! xD

 

[LiK]

8k if you don't have data caps.

 

[DavidDesu]

Off the rails graphics by basically using multiple consoles together.. wahahaha

 

[KoopaSwitch]

This is super impressive.

Edit: as usual, Era is negative about something different. The one thing Era is good at is being wrong lol

Click to shrink...

Don't bother. Same group thought the Vita would be huge and the Switch would fail.

 

[xyla]

This all depends on the games and the prices now.
I know several people that don't care about buying hardware but would try a game every once in a while.

Being able to do that anywhere in your home and in a few years anywhere with 5G... Google has a case here. It all depends on the support of devs and the prices now. I would never buy access to this for 60 Euro, but I might try a game out for a week or two for 5 Euros or so.

 

[Rndom Grenadez]

I think it depends on price and games, but the possible reach of this is more than the big 3 combined.

We shall see, but I'll give it a try.

 

[Deleted member 8674]

uhm nothing revolutionary in infrastructure happens overnight. why are people hating on advances in technology, exactly? this is super cool.

Click to shrink...

Because we don't live for hundreds of years.
