Don't get me wrong the idea is great but it will need to evolve into some kind of monthly subscription that gives you access to all the games or its not gonna last, without that your just paying the same price for games to run on a far inferior system than one you can pick up at a pawn shop for $150.00

@spacegg: The point you made was a good one if nothing else I hope Stadia makes Linux more main stream, I use Linux on all my computers with the exception of my hard core gaming one and only us windows on it because Linux just is not ready for that, hopefully the stadia system will change that

Ok, so I've done some research on the google stadia gaming system or should I say streaming subscription, now when i first heard about this i thought this was gonna be a real kick in the teeth to XBOX and Play Station however after more research i am thinking not so much, lets examine this further before diving in with our dollars.

First the hardware needed is $129.00 which is great and way cheaper than PS or XBOX but here is the thing, you have to really dig for on the net to find a straight answer on, the games are going to be the same price to access as the PS and XBOX.

Now i have no doubt that the Stadia is going to dominate this coming Christmas because many people are under the impression as i was for a $30 or $40 per month subscription we would have access to all 38 games that are currently available, this is not the case, for the $9.99 per month subscription that you'll pay you will have access to about 4 games if memory serves that honestly i have no interest in.

Of course Google is not shining a light on the fact that to get the 4k quality gaming you need a pretty fast internet speed and before you pass judgment on me complaining just because my internet is slow i live in Chattanooga, Tn where we the fastest internet in the world of 10GB per second so network is not my issue with this.

My issue is that for that $129 your spending on the stadia, you can go to a pawn shop and pick up a PS4 sign up for the free PS network account and have access to dozens of free games at 4k resolution and have a system that does more than just play games and performance that no streaming could ever touch even at the 1gb internet speed im currently paying for.

Now if google was offering 38 games for $29.99 a month and the hardware was $129.99 and had access to there entire games library for that price I would be all in on that.

So i would say to you don't buy into the scam you will not save a dime in the long run and not have near the performance of a game system not to mention the $120.00 per year you'll pay just to have access to Stadia and the free games no one wants to play.

Dont be a sucker buy a used PS4 and wait till next year when the PS5 comes out which will be able to play all the PS4 games you bought all year long and has dozens of free to play games not just 3 or 4, not to mention the fact there are 100's of games you can pick up used for 10 or 20 bucks at game stores all over the country.
