This is not for me. I know publishers cant wait for physical media to disappear, but Im not ready for it.

I'm keeping an open mind. My main concern is latency and image quality, but if they nail that, this could be insane. After that, it really comes down to which games they get. Ready or not, streaming your games is probably where the industry is headed.

I wonder how finantially viable was that move in the end, paying a Fortnite streamer to advertise your Fortnite competitor...



You know it deserves the GOTY.

Ohh sir, Canada is a lovely country, but when it comes to government sanctioned oligopolies, and laws to prevent external competition? Not a chance.

Well, it works over satellites in space, so I don't know what they even can do about that.

You'd be shocked.

Also, that hardware that's more powerful than Xbox One X? I'm betting that's a game developer kit, because you know... unreliable internet connections.

I guess direct line to the server, much easier in this case.

Such a connection wouldn't require high performance hardware it was rumored to have.



Wait, that's it? They just confirmed they have a 1st party studio working for the console, why not announce their games now?

They showed the servers early in the stream, don't know where the problem lies?



All of this sound gibberish. Where is the games, the exclusives. Rip my data plan and my Internet . Too bad Streaming will not replace console or PC forever.

So I sometimes have trouble with YouTube and Twitch videos. They quality goes down automatically or the video just stops. Will this work seamlessly for me?



I gotta say i'm very interested in seeing where this goes, a lot of what they showed seemed really impressive, or at least has potential.

I'm gonna take an easy guess and say the internet where I am probably isn't fast enough to use it, but eventually i'd be willing to give it a try.

Just disappointed they didn't show any first party games, but I guess we'll see during the summer.



Is Stedia a youtube companion app or what. Stedia seems  Social Crap Network for 13 year old. Its not about games it's about youtube wievs.
