DudeThatsErin Posted July 24, 2020 Share Posted July 24, 2020 I am interested in Apple Arcade but don’t have the money to test it out. I am not interested in Google Stadia because I don’t own an android phone capable of it. What about you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyfire Posted July 25, 2020 Share Posted July 25, 2020 I don't see value in both of them. I personally think that apple arcade is more or less forced version on the users with a lot of features and restrictions and same with stadia. game ownership point nobody cares for.

Peterlight Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 I played the apple arcade ones on my friends iPhone so I pretty much like it compare to the Google stadia. If I have got an apple phone, I would play it more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killamch89 Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 My vote goes to the Xbox game pass because it'll have far more games and features than these two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyfire Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 I think the quality of the pass and also the amount of games that you get from the xbox game pass. Indeed xbox is worth the investment. I like them for that compared to PSN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killamch89 Posted March 23, 2021 Share Posted March 23, 2021 Anything other than Google Stadia - The Google Stadia is a a humungous flop and on top of that, Google is getting sued from all angles because of undelivered promises. You can add this to the long list of failures they've had in the last decade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyfire Posted March 24, 2021 Share Posted March 24, 2021 I think apple having fanatic fans, I think they will continue side by the brand but the stadia is like unmatured product. So no idea how long it will continue to exist as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skyfire Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 Yeah and the worst part is google never sticks to it's own products so apart from gmail and google search, none of their products survive. so stadia too will die eventually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Empire Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 If people can't afford consoles, how can they afford an iphone, or an Internet connection fast and unlimited enough for game streaming? Google Stadia uses about 20GB per hour. That's bytes not bits. Your game will go to shit as soon as someone else in your house starts watching Netflix. Ten again you don't need an iPhone to use Stadia. Any 1080p Android device will probably be fine, but still. The appeal of Goodle Stadia is absolutely not exclusivity. It is about not having to buy games or hardware to play. The idea is not new, but previous efforts were hampered by lag. Google has a chance to pull it off because if anyone can overcome the technological problems, it's them, and because they own youtube. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, Xbox Gamepass and other competitors are way better platforms than the Google Stadia. They have even started trying to rebrand the Google stadia as media streaming platform instead of a game streaming platform because they can't compete with Xbox, Nvidia and others.

Internet price vs console one time price is high. one time purchase is pretty difficult to justify. internet is affordable for 10 USD a month. Is console 10 USD a month? no. As for apple products, same logic. Its hard to justify the purchases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's true that Apple is pretty expensive and often times, it's really hard to justify the prices of most of their offerings but at the very least, they keep supporting their platforms with updates up to 5-6 years later. After 3 years, Google and most other Android platforms stop providing updates for their platforms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyfire Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 Adding to that there is a battle against the EPIC games. And god forbid if the EPIC joins the battle of stadia, luna etc. Then things area going to be pretty hard from there onwards too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
