Wanted to get a read of the "room" on what people think about Stadia.
Personally, despite having a beefy PC and every console on the market....I'm in. My rig definitely can't run what they are advertising, and for basically the same price as game pass it seems like a no brainer.
Yes, I am lucky in that I have the bandwidth to support it(which actually doesn't need to be that high according to Google and beta testers, even a modest connection is good enough due to how they are handling the host-client connections). But the high speed infrastructure is slowly but surely coming around, with 5G on the horizon and ISPs just generally coming to more and more area. With the idea being 5G would supplement areas that can't get "traditional" high speed internet.
The other thing I wonder is where, assuming everything works as advertised, where this will put next-gen at. There will really be no reason to own a console, unless they can either deliver the same quality OR cram the tech required into a box at a reasonable price.
Thoughts?
