UleTheVee Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 https://www.vgr.com/verizon-game-streaming-market/ ^ ORIGINAL ARTICLE ^ So guys, what do you think about how Verizon wants to form part of the game streaming market? Do you think we'll get our Red Dead Redemption 4 port for PC this way? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthHazard Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 It will be interesting to see how it goes. Personally, if something like this were to happen, Verizon is probably the one company that I wouldn't go with especially as someone from the UK (chances are it wouldn't even be available to us). But yeah, it will be a long time away really. The way internet speeds work right now, it just wouldn't be suitable for cloud gaming or streaming games at all.

I'm pretty sure there will be a lot of enhancements once the fabled 5G Technology reaches our neanderthal hands... No, I couldn't even keep a straight face.

DanTheGamer Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 Interesting that these companies all want to get a piece of this. I knew that game streaming was a thing but apparently these bigger companies are starting to see a market for it. I just read an article this morning that said Google just ran a project where they ran a test of running a newer Assassins Creed game through a game streaming service they're experimenting with.

The times they are changing. Everyone is now aware that the gaming market is a very important one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I couldn't even keep a straight face. 5G? Do you mean that thing that would need way more radioactive antennas and electricity to run? That thing won't be mainstream for at least another 4 years and before anyone talks about how fast technology advances, let me tell you this - 5G has nowhere near the range of 4g technology so it will be a backward step. Simple things like the breeze or an umbrella can completely disrupt your 5g network. The "5G" that AT&T claims to offer is actually 4G - that's right, they are liars.

skyfire Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 Let's face the fact, nobody wants to pay money to watch someone else play the game. Free streaming is what people need. And twitch and Youtube gaming gives them just that. Why would anyone want to pay for those game streaming. I understand that verizon wants to bypass the net neutrality and overtake on the user interest. So I think this surely will be challenged.
