Does the game have PS style button prompts or Xbox or universal ones? I thought that came up with another port years ago, but the other way.

Death Stranding not available to play on Xbox (via GeForce Now)
- Thread starter jbug617
- Start date
In theory nothing other than the fact that it would be way more work than is really justified to stream all of 3 games
lmao!
I wish there was an option to hide posts from people that hide their profiles. Nothing good comes from those fellas.
Do games run well at all through the browser on the Xbox? I feel like last time he brought up something similar it technically worked but ran like shit
Also highly doubt this is a deliberate removal, it's not like this is a highly touted feature. More likely a compatibility issue.

Is that a big deal? I mean if you are streaming it anyway just stream it on an old laptop and hook it up with TV. The Xbox controller works well with Windows anyway.
It may be a bit inconvenient but hardly a big issue I would assume.

Let's be honest though, the vast majority of people that are going to go to this much trouble to play Death Stranding on Xbox are just just doing it so they can be like "har har look at me playing a Sony game on Xbox" just like I'm sure what Tom Warren was trying to do when he found this out.
Just stream the game on all the other supported devices, problem solved. There is no inherent benefit to streaming Death Stranding on Xbox.
Kinda side tangent: GeForce Now works on Xbox Edge now? I tried this like a week or two ago and it said Edge wasn't a supported browser since it wasn't literally Chrome.
It's literally just the game being streamed from a console.
you can use an Xbox controller with ps now.
Squarealex, don't cheat and delete your comment. Embrace the cringe and the subsequent memes. At least you'll get a tag out of this.
Shouldn't he know better though? This is a complete non-issue and has nothing to do with Sony restricting something specifically on Xbox devices, but something he could've confirmed with a little digging is now being used as 'SONY IS ANTI-CONSUMER' bait and people are eating it up, based on his twitter responses.
GeForce Now is basically a remote desktop service. They provide rented hardware and you get to install games that you already own. I don't see how Sony can have any legal power over someone's preferred PC hardware.
I actually wish Nvidia had taken this to court back when publishers started demanding their games be blacklisted. What is the legal justification for banning certain software? Nvidia isn't profiting from the sale, and it is up to the user to install the things they want to play. Nvidia just rents people the hardware over the internet. Would it be different if they shipped the user a physical PC instead of a remote connection? It's ridiculous.
Is Sekiro back yet? I bought it to play on geforce now when I was without an Xbox or ps4 and then it got removed because of Activision or something, During the time when geforce now went to a subscription payment. I don't want to pay ÂŁ60 for the Xbox Series S version when I own it on Steam. Especially as the Series S version isn't even 60fps

The justification is that no one legally owns the game besides the publisher and even end-users purchasing the game on Steam etc are still bound by the terms of the licensing agreement. If publishers don't want a third party streaming their software for a monthly fee, then it's not happening.
Any legal justification in either direction doesn't realistically matter because Nvidia has no interest in seriously damaging their relations with major business partners for a tiny fraction of their overall business. Publishers are more than capable of banning the use of remote desktops through their licensing agreements if they want to. Short of legislation that specifically enshrines consumers' right to use remote desktops publishers will always have the upper hand.
Considering Days Gone and Horizon aren't on Geforce Now I'm guessing this wasn't Sony since their position is clearly to just not allow their games on the service at all (which is also Microsoft's position).
I'm guessing 505 or Nvidia was cool with putting the game on there, but since Sony still own the rights to the IP they'd rather not push their buttons and risk Sony wanting to remove the game from Gefore Now so they blocked it.

Ahh, I thought Geforce Now streams PC games, so the PC version.
It does. I thought you were talking about PS Now... That's what the person you quoted was talking about.

Tom Warren? Know better? Oh man, some of you really believe in gaming "journalists" I see.
What a bunch of complete nonsense. Most people who own a Series S or X would want to play the game from the comfort of their couch, and don't give a fuck about any of that bullshit.
I believed more people on this site specifically would be more discerning than making threads/posting legit responses to obvious Sony hate-bait. I expected more responses in the vein of 'this guy is a dunce' rather than 'haha f Sony' and now I'm sad :(
