I think this streaming service should be classified only as concept. If I remember correctly there's a requirement that platform should have exclusive games. I'm totally fine with Stadia but what about Apple Arcade, Nvidia Shield or PS Now.

Luna is viewed as a direct comparison to Stadia. For the time being, Game Pass is largely a service that gives you access to games on the Xbox and PC platforms. Also, the Luna page was created by Jeff based on the information they have been provided about the platform.

With the rise of streaming services, I am not sure what you would call it, but you would want to link it some way to to hardware it plays on. So yeah, like maybe call these streaming services a "meta-platform" or something to denote that it is overarching service on multiple types of hardware.

Has the crew said if there are going to be any definitions of this going forward? Especially with games moving further and further away to hardware ties of the past.
