You know, I actually hope Stadia succeeds. I am no longer a hardcore gamer or care about having the latest tech. But I do want to play new games every now and then. I also believe in buying a personal laptop with decent specs that last me 10 years. Typically these type of computers can no longer play the latest games by like year 4. Stadia succeeding would be huge win for us non-tech consumers who still wish to enjoy good games every now and then.

You’d be better off supporting Microsoft’s upcoming xCloud than Googles Stadia. xCloud is better for several reasons: 

-Microsoft doesn’t see it as a replacement for console/PC unlike Google, just a compliment to them.

-Microsoft already has a large 1st party set up, google doesn’t

-Early tests suggest xCloud will have lower latency than Stadia

-Larger playerbase for multiplayer games.

I believe Xcloud aims for better performance and library than PSNow, but since it haven't release yet and as a subs that you don't need to buy games if he wants he can start trying PSNow to see how he likes what streaming have to offer now while we wait to see how Xcloud turns out. And sure don't go to Stadia (unfortunatelly the good version of Stadia, I think it was AMD, got shot down with several devs getting out after beta).
