kingpotato Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 Google Stadia has officially launched, quoting the review I read for the system : Stadia is a cloud service that runs games on Google’s servers, then beams them to your device. You can play on a TV, on a phone, or on a PC. Basically you dont need a console, all you need is a google account and internet connection. So far it looks good and it play good. But here comes the obvious problem, it has a lot of lag. https://www.digitaltrends.com/game-reviews/google-stadia-review/ Shagger 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyfire Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 I kind of expected initial reactions like this. I think the tech is 5G level and we are yet to be in that phase as of now. kingpotato 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean how many people do pay for an internet connect that can support 4k streaming ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most likely next few weeks or month gamers would pick it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it consumes a lot of data cap, to be able to run at 1080p it uses around 7gb per hour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyfire Posted November 22, 2019 Share Posted November 22, 2019 Yes. I can't afford that because I have 100GB plan a month if I am right. I think even the daily mobile quota for me is 2gb per day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skyfire Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 My per hour consumption has to be around 600MB I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blackangel Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 I'm pretty sure it's just like any other system. A lot of bugs in the software on initial launch that they need to work out. And way too many power requirements that most gamers simply can't afford at the moment. Give it a year or two, fix the bugs, then relaunch the Stadia, and we'll see how it goes.

killamch89 Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 I've called this one since last year so it didn't surprise me one bit. With Steam, Sony and Xbox releasing their own versions right around the corner, the Google Stadia will fade into dust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blackangel Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 Yeah, but we all knew they were going to try to cash in on the digital gaming craze. Who’s next? Disney? Playboy? Somalia? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Google Stadia being agnostic to platforms, I think it has more chances of demand though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
