Even if it means you need to pay more for your internet subscription, ontop of paying for a monthly subscrption to have cloud gameing?

I think alot, would rather just use other options, *IF* they had any.
I see cloud gameing, more as something OTHER instead of a choice ontop off, something.

Its more of a either or, thingy.
Its for those that wont even buy a game console imo.
(because if you had one, why would you subject yourself to a lesser experiance?)

People already pay subs in order to have access to PS+ and Xbox Live on top of their internet sub. I don't know how the model of Xcloud will work. But Stadia will have a base model with no subscription.

Stadia is only "free" for 1hour (before getting kicked off, and requireing re-logon) and at 1080p right?
Even then image quality is lower than consoles running 1080p.

Thats not even factoring in the input delay, lag spikes, artifacting, ect.
You have to put up with, ontop of it being alot more demanding on your internet subscription.

People that play it off as "free" are over exaggerating.
This service is too expensive, for anyone to want to have their bussiness that way.

Next gen everything will be 4k.
Will game streaming also be so? What kinda connection does 4k streaming require?
