the idea of watching a live stream on youtube then joining the actual game with a single click on non gaming computer is a pretty good one but google gonna google

it's a great idea in terms of features the developers brainstormed that they have no ability to implement

stadia sounds a lot like a group of kids had a bunch of ideas for what would be totally awesome to have. they did the technical part that they knew how to do, and then they hit the business relationship obstacle and welp,

qirex posted:on a very basic level the whole thing seems just too fiddly/complex to be a successful mass market product and lacking features and content that would make enthusiasts want it, especially since most of that cohort already owns a console or pc that's just it, ignoring the technical issues, they targeted a market segment that already has better options. charging both a subscription fee and a relatively large upfront buy in just to get access to a subset of games that they can already play on one of their other platforms, but worse, is completely nonsensical

the real punchline there is the wifi controller didnt even do wifi when they shipped it so seeing any sort of competence in stadia on ios would be a significant improvement to the stadia strategy

lol at the ars review of the galaxy foldquote:The Galaxy Fold is an exercise in how not to build a foldable smartphone. Developing a totally new form factor like this is something that requires careful consideration of how the hardware and software would work together, but Samsung seemed more concerned with being first to market than making a good product. The embarrassing, fumbled launch period wasn't an aberration, the Fold is a start-to-finish rush job that can't back up any of the hype. This is an aborted prototype that was rushed onto the market for rich suckers. Let us repeat: do not buy it.

stadia the subscription service that is free for 1080p streaming (buying the probably overpriced games on their store) will be quite attractive if it ever exists stadia at the moment where you have to pay $130 for a bad controller and a chromecast ultra i already have sucks

those days are over. $1500 these days buys you a top-of-the-line pc with something like a ryzen 3900 and a 2070 super, which draws like 500 watts peak, throttles down to a tenth of that, and can be equipped with near-silent fans. if you wana play twitchy games stadia will never feel right to you, but if you don't wanna play twitchy games stadia is a ripoff because you can do those on any computer made in the last 5 years without the google hardware and monthly fee.
