Verizon is offering the Stadia Premiere Edition free to new Fios Gigabit subscribers
- Thread starter Real
- Start date
Lol failure of stadia is now complete. Joking aside makes sense if i am correct in thinking it didnt sell well.
It's only free with one game, Destiny 2.
You have to buy all the other games at full price.
Heh.

Heh.
Verizon also offers Disney+. Sprint Gives Hulu. Comcast Gives Peacock. Sprint gives Amazon prime too.
Obviously not all the same thing, but partnering with a internet provider is a common tactic to increase users. And add value to the providers offer.

Thread is about a free stadia device why do they also need to give out it's current gaming line up?
I know, I just forgot to quote the user that was quick to complain about free stuff (I mean, even if you dont give a shit about games you get a Chromecast Ultra for free...).
I was about to look if I can play Stadia from my chrome browser and looks like is not available in my country lol
I got excited and then saw I have to be a new customer. T-T I'd take a free Chromecast and Stadia controller, I wanna try it.
That's a pretty good perk and partnership.
Curiously, is Verizon Fios available in your country...? Thought Verizon was just a US/Canada/NorthAmerica thing.

No. I was just curious about Stadia, hoping here we get some offer like that. :(
Wait just a minute.
Didn't everyone tell me on this forum how ISPs were going to be the death of this service? Surely they would kill it right?
It wouldn't make any sense for them to push a service that, you know, actually makes people more reliant on the ISP in the first place. Because that makes too much sense.

Sooooo it bombed then right? Maybe I'm being too pessimistic but it seems kinda crazy to give away/bundle for free something that's $130. Also, do we know when the official launch is?
nope i've stood by and called routing or lack of proper topology or net features as the fault line in this tech. Most aren't going to customize their net connections to optimally connect to stadia either.
You can bypass your isp not that most will though.
Shhhhhh.
No facts and talking sense in Stadia threads.
The people don't like it. They'll get mad. You don't want that.
User warned: ableist slur
It launches when the free tier comes out, they used the term early access instead of beta because their PR is retarded
Yep the only way but a good one is superior to a shitty isp or an isp with bad hops or too many.
I will keep saying it the gaming industry should invest heavily in private peering and getting gamers off bad routers.
