Project xCloud - DualShock 4 support, Coming To PC in 2020, 50+ Games Already Supported, Game Pass Support Coming

Is PlayStation Now just Game Pass and xCloud combined into one service because it streams and downloads? Wouldn't it make more sense for Microsoft to evolve Game Pass to be like that since Game Pass already has an established and very positive reputation?
And lasts a full year. Could launch January 1st or even December 31st 2020.
I love how no one is questioning this, all they did was announce 50 game's and no other important details
50 games is 38 more than stadia.
i still have the same concerns but with gamepass being linked to this, it already puts it ahead of stadia
But that doesn't answer my question. Price? When?
I can do that now with ps remote play for example. Costs 0.
Has Google answered them? Man, you keep defending Stadia at every opportunity you get and bash everything else.
MS out here fucking doing it. Google better bust ass on some killer experiences you can't get elsewhere...
If it's literally going to be on PC in two months that's fair enough. But if it's just a unqualified '2020', that's a fairly big and vague window.
I remember people saying that google and ms would naturally have extensive device and geographic reach from day one. It seems both to one degree or another are going to have more of a time in phased beta rollout than I think might have been expected 6 months ago. I suppose it shouldn't be too surprising but after such a 'hot' rhetoric war earlier in the year, the streaming wars for this year seem a little bit of a damp squib. Mostly due for Stadia in fairness though...
so 100% if you own gamepass ultimate you get project xCloud with no extra monthly fees? 4K? Eventually stream from a PC or laptop maybe casting from your phone to your TV?
that kind of setup makes stadia seem pretty weak

They haven't said, all they said was 2020 - if that means XCloud from your box or the cloud for free I have no idea
Pretty sure Xbox is committed to all 1st party titles beng available on Game Pass Day 1. So you should expect next-gen games to continue going to Game Pass, & by extension, XCloud.
So there are two versions of Game Streaming: Console Streaming (similar to PS Remote Play) which is free, and Cloud Streaming (similar to Stadia or PS Now) which will included in Game Pass (from $10) starting sometime next year.
Both versions of streaming are currently in testing and both will launch sometime next year.
Game Pass + xCloud will also allow you to stream games you own, they don't have to be part of the Game Pass sub. I don't know if that is the case with PSNow.
They confirmed this will not require an additional xCloud subscription? Nice.
Edit: and will this be the full catalog of (XOne) Game Pass games?
I've got my Stadia Founder's Edition coming next week; but I honestly don't see myself using it beyond the included 3 months as anything but a Chromecast Ultra.
Microsoft including xCloud with GamePass is such a great add. I haven't owned an XBox since the 360, but can see myself subscribing to GamePass just because of the xCloud integration.

2020 is very vague. And it was obvious too. The games available are better than 12 by Stadia, but until it launches it is pointless. It is also worse than the hundreds available today on psnow which costs 60 a year if not mistaken.
Everything is still developing, I'm interested since i have a passive pc that can't run games at all, and could use one of those offers or a monthly sub to play a few interesting games on GP like Gears( if latency is good enough) every now and then. But as i said, still very vague.
When are they upgrading the servers to scarlet?
how much will it cost?
Will there be a free version?
will I be able to buy new 3rd party games like cyberpunk?
Are they going to try to put it on every device possible?
will they have exclusive cloud streaming games?
when will it support 4k?
can it completely replace the next gen Xbox so I don't have to buy one?
