Microsoft is trying to beat Google and Amazon to the punch on the game streaming business.
In 10 years dedicated console hardware will be niche.

Sony has all those Gaikai and Onlive patents so I wonder how much money they are going to make patent trolling all these companies.

I bet the first serious attempt at streaming-only goes the way of VR: almost, but not quite there in a way that delays it by quite a while.

The other problem is internet infrastructure is really bad in most of the world and even a lot of the US. Plus consumers have just got accustomed to 4K HDR. They're not gonna downgrade to streaming 1080p video.

I am not watching nor know what the trophy requirements are but given the stream's description that was posted here, I assume he might already know about the wall running bit

Consumers will always take the convenience (if streaming can manage it) over quality. Most people watch TV and movies on their phones now.

That certainly hasn't always been the case with people who buy consoles.

Plus, Sony at least has a vested interest in driving consumers to buy nice TVs
4K HDR netflix has the same bitrate as 1080p bluray.
Most people don't notice.
Major difference between steaming a video and a game and even then the Blu Ray still looks noticeably better.

If the difference is input latency I'm pretty sure they can solve it.

what of the way to solve latency with game streaming would be for then to run lines to your residence

would be weird yet cool

i can see ms partnering with a provider and doing something like that

Does this Switch game pass rumor mean this E3 we are likely to see Nintendo at the Microsoft press conference/the other way around?

Just catching up on the gamepass rumour thing, wild. I can't help but think it's a better deal for Microsoft than Nintendo but I also don't know shit about shit
