this aint E3.
yeah I doubt they will charge you extra to stream a game. Google doesn't charge you extra to stream a Movie you bought on Google Play. Games won't be any different.I'm sure it's going to be free right? Or at least a monthly fee.
Wasn't OnLive free?
If they coupled this with a box for maximum quality, I'd be in, but they haven't said a word about THE issue - input lag, which we saw with our own eyes in the brief AC demo.
It's THE problem, and it's not going away, seems.
Laws of physics gonna laws of physics.
Microsoft wants Xbox on all devices just like Google. They want the same thing.
Did you watch?
Yep some people are forgetting that PSNow is for the moment the only streaming app available in multiple countries. And Playstation won't disapear in a blink of an eye, PS5 will be a successful console if Sony doesn't do a huge mistake.Sony has existing infrastructure for game streaming. They can scale it. They have the most mature streaming service in the market right now.
the amount of bandwidth for this......dear lord. You would probably have downloaded the game in a matter of a couple days of play just streaming.
There is no way data caps will ever support this model, Internet infrastructures will continue to hold streaming platforms hostage.
This.I would feel more confident if they actually showed the game and not the title screen.
It's extremely unlikely anyone would make a big game exclusive for a streaming services at the moment. Google probably haven't set up their studios yet to have anything to show.
Because the infrastructure just isn;t there yet. We need a massive revolution in terms of connection speeds here in the US & Canada.
I'm really not seeing how this is different from Netflix versus blu-rays or Spotify versus cds. This isn't exactly some new ideaIf you're worried about ownership this kind of model isn't for you. I don't see what's so confusing. Do you think you should own the content on Netflix or Spotify if your subscription lapses? This isn't exactly a new model for aquiring content. Game Pass has been a thing now for a minute too.
Exactly. At the end people will decide if this is more convenient for them, they won't care about the company. This forum is just a minority.people dont own netflix movies or spotify albums and everyone is fine with that.

They remembered Pac Man. Much like the Konami code on the controller, it's nice when people remember things that happened once.
Yep.Because the promises dont line up with reality
They aren't addressing the primary barrier to this type of future and thats a problem
If I was trying to sell this as the future I would need to attack that issue head on
This technology is 100% the future, although personally I have no idea if it's feasible currently.Guys I really want Stadia to be as awesome as this conference says.
