Well if they want to foot the bill to lay all the fiber optics to make it even remotely viable, sure.

once wide band 5g actually rolls out in more places, that will be enough for most people

How about they fix their very lackluster TV library first?

I think it will work for some games now, even with crappy Broadband internet. It is going to take a VERY long time for it to be viable for FPS and Fighting games though.

That's unlikely to happen. They're focused on their own programming and have been for awhile.

The Stadia was such a rousing success, that another company is now eager to follow in its foot steps, lol

And the guy leading it is from EA and Facebook games? That's a yikes from me... Still not as bad as the serial loser that Google hired for Stadia, I guess.

Oh. By "Game streaming", I assumed we were talking about online Twitch streamers being hosted on Netflix or something.

I'm not interested in streaming a video game

if it's not as good as xcloud, which damn near has no latency, then it'll be dead

what kind of games will it even be? i can't see many options considering most people are going to just have a tv remote.

I was wondering this at first. It sounded like they were talking about CYOA games at first. But maybe theyre have games playable from remotes (similar to mobile games). Or they may sell a controller you can use

I don't even know what to think of it. The concept seems absurd, since it's a very different kind of streaming and it can't be as simple as just adding something to their library.

No. I think that was going to happen regardless, apparently. But this is suppose to help them justify it That said, they did mention that the price wont increase when they put it on. So, they are most likely going to try to separate the adding games and price increase away from each other, I think

Now Sony Games is rumored to be included as well...

But I wonder how that will effect Sony's own Game Streaming Services (PSNow and/or PSPlus)
