Demon_skeith Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 Anyone here try out or use Xbox's cloud gaming services? It finally got launch release on other platforms like PC. I've been using it through my PC's edge browser to play some old 360 games I wanted to always play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 It's okay but nothing great. I actually use it to play random games to get achievements for the Microsoft Rewards programme. It does seem to be a bit laggy so it's not an ideal service for multiplayer games. Hopefully they can improve it where it's reliable for any game.

Justin11 Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 I am not an Xbox user, I don't know how the cloud service works when it comes to using it to store video game. I'll be ecstatic to learn how it works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clasher Posted June 7, 2022 Share Posted June 7, 2022 It's a well thought of feature Microsoft added to their system but it still has it flaws, due to much traffic it lags a lot during the day and you might play it lag free at night but on some you might not be that lucky.

Shortie Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 I have used the cloud service on my phone and on my PC and when I tried it on my phone it was still fairly new so did have it's issues, however, when I used it on my PC it seemed to run really smooth and I never had any issues with it at all. I love the fact that I can play games from Xbox via the cloud on either my phone or my PC but I do wish they would bring more games to the cloud that I play, for example, I would love to see Destiny 2 come to the cloud. I absolutely love Destiny 2 and would love to be able to continue on my phone as well as playing on my Xbox when I am able to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Empire Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 With Cloud gaming on console you can try a game before installing. So say you wanted to play a large game, instead of having to download it you can just play it straight away. Then again WIth furture thigns are you can do that to PC also now with Game ready baordcast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How does it work exactly so I can do that when I am a bit impatient to have the video game installed first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cloud gaming, just that all the data of that game is in the cloud that you play on rather then on your PC. Like nvidia game broadcast for PC people. You play it on any PC that you own, doesn't ahve to be powerfull and you stream the game while using a RTX 3080 from another country Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kane99 Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 I tried the Xbox Cloud gaming, and didn't mess with it for too long. I figured it was going to use up my internet too much, and I didn't want my ISP to throw a fit at me lol. But I have the Xbox app on my phone and want to take advantage of it soon. But I need to get a decent controller peripheral for my phone, or try to get it to work with bluetooth somehow. More services are joining the cloud gaming future.
