I'd bet folding money that the last 7 seconds of this video is the console start-up sound.
As someone who is into the gaming scene in general, I'm just excited a new challenger is entering the ring in earnest (or appears to be). Sure we've had other contenders, but none as exciting as Google. I was hopeful about Amazon for a second there, but idk what's up with them now.
If it is a new console... damn.. and I hope it twice faster than xboxx one x. People here will go crazy.
I wonder if take 2 rumouts about sony are actually google. A new system with exclusive GTA would destroy sony and microsoft day 1.
Pretty much.
Google's track record is reason enough to be cautious with anything Google announces.
As much as I want to believe Google is in it for the long haul, I don't think they'd do this.
This, competition is good.
Through the years of antiXbox sentiment few give them credit for a broadband only service with a unified ID that Sony was forced to copy kicking and screaming.
Yes, that would totally make sense to announce merely months after their game streaming service.
I know for a fact from friends who work at Google that it's not a traditional console.
I generally like Google's main software / mobile hardware. Just also wary of how often they announce a service or app and then unceremoniously dump it a couple years later.
I have some Nest products if they announced tomorrow it's getting discontinued or a total brand change I wouldn't be surprised at all.

Well then, I guess will see what this thing is in a week.
Not sure I want to play on the same platform that hosts "Milo owning feminists" compilations and anti-vaxxer idiocy.
They should release an app that follows your subscription money getting taken offshore and washed in Ireland in real time.

Im kinda tired of negativity dominating the discussion around this.
I hope google can being great things to the industry.

If they can bring anything new to the table without getting even more of my data I'm fine. If its a device or service that is tethered to any kind of online connectivity I'm out. They got already way to much data from me (YouTube, google, gmail). Also, there is nothing better than having your stuff fully accesible offline to me.
I wonder how this keynote will start.
Will they talk about the history of gaming?
Will no one be on the floor when a trailer suddenly starts playing?
Will they address the developers in the room off the bat?

The worst that could happen is if they release a Jaguar-based stationary console. We need to move that baseline...

This is going to be fascinating
Even if this is 'just' a streaming box, if they are using relative high spec PC tech in the background then it could somewhat defuse ps5/xb2 reveals - although they'll be local hardware the 'performance' gap will appear to be closer which could take some wind out of their sails

If it's a streaming box couldn't it literally be 'use a pc with zen x cpu and Nvidia y GPU and z GB ram and you're good'
2-3 mass market titles of differing genre that won't be out for the console's release and fade into the night, just like Amazon.
Outrun 3 is rumored, some Asassin's Creed stuff seems likely.
well Splinter Cell has been rumored since that E3 Walmart leak and Ubisoft seems to be a big partner with Google, so maybe a reveal trailer for that?
I'll scream if Outrun 3 is announced but this is a streaming only box. You'll be able to hear me from here. It won't be pleasant.
"not a traditional console" doesn't necessarily mean a streaming box. A box with good hardware that runs full android (and its apps) wouldn't be a traditional console but it would be a proper local box to play games on.
That sounds like the Nvidia shield to me. If it's basically a shield but with their own controller and own Geforce now platform I'd be a little bit disappointed to say the least
I thought Google Fiber was basically being mothballed. When was the last time they announced a new city?
If the selling point of this thing is "it can run Android apps" then it's 100% doomed and Google learnt nothing from Ouya, Amazon, Nvidia, Apple and their own even attempt.
Google has to show nothing but games at these events, and obviously how this thing is going to work, but not other extra gimmicks nobody is interested (or not enough to buy another box)
Either you fully commit to making a proper console or just show us how Project Stream can work on a beefed up Chromecast.
I think it's too early for AC considering how, seemingly, they're not releasing a game this tear (unless you mean Odyssey being announced for whatever Google does).
You mean if its not a box with at least 3tflops you will paint yourself green on livestream?
The Xbox is basically a Windows box at this point. I don't think they'll be aiming for $400+ hardware.
