Topic	Stadia is not having a good launch at all......
wolfy42 11/12/19 11:06:07 PM #9:	xjayguyx posted... Google Streamdia is just a joke. Games will have noticeable lag. Internet connection has to be very strong ( with no data caps ). You have to pay for the streaming service and pay full price for games to play on said service.. it's a total joke. Only idiots that like to flush money down the toilet will eat this garbage "service" up. I'll stick to my Physical games while they are still making them. And when that dies off I'll just play Physical games from a back log.. I'll only buy future games that are absolute must plays for me like the Legend of Zelda for example. F* Google and F* the Streamdia. The way it was going to work (not sure if it changed), was like microsofts gamepass etc, and you could pay $10 a month to have access to the games in the library. There was no charge for the streaming service outside of that, but you had to buy the equipment. Initially they were also working on making it available to use directly on PC's (you still payed for the streaming service, but didn't have to get the equipment). Now that has been nixed, at least temperoarily, and you can actually only get the service with the $130 bundle (which is bunk). Lag at least if you lived fairly close to a data center, was supposedly light enough that you could play competative FPS games without a problem (less then 10 microseconds or something), but since there are no competative FPS games on launch at this point (I guess Destiny counts?), I don't htink it matters. Most of the things they initially were showcasing seem to be gone or reduced etc at this point. The price point to enter was initially $35 as well (just had to buy the streaming device) and even that might have been optional if you had a pc....now you can't even enter the door without spending $130. YEah, I would happily have given it a chance they way the described it a month or two ago, even if I had to blow $35 to do so (figuring that BL3 would cost $60....so I could play it 3 months along with other games on stadia.....for the cost of buying it). AT this point even if ALL 3 games I wanted to play were available, I wouldn't be saving money.....and I would only have them temporarily...so yeah, makes no sense at all for me now. --- Zangulus "I try to avoid having any knowledge at all of his dick."
