How are you so certain this will be the future? People used to think flying cars would be the future, but we all know what a nightmare that would have been. |
I mean, first, we already have flying cars. They're called helicopters.
Jokes aside, this won't be the future - it's literally already happening. This is like when people try to deny the already-happening abandonment of physical media. It's not the future - it's now. Game streaming already is happening now. To pretend that people won't adopt the clearly more convenient option more and more over time as the technology gets better is like owning a SNES, claiming that 3D gaming will never take off because it would be too complicated and ugly, blind to the 3D games already existing in parallel, improving in fidelity everyday.
"VR will never take off - Just look at how bad the Virtual Boy is! Cellphones will never take off - just look how big they are! Online video will never take off - look at how few people have good internet connection! Technology will never improve past what it currently is!" Come on, dude. What a nightmare playing any game you want in a second just by having your friend text it to you would be. What Google is doing here is revolutionary to a magnitude far greater than what most people can appreciate.
