Can you imagine how insufferable being in a meeting at Google would be? These people obviously love hearing themselves talk.

Wow, its actually a bit nostalgic to see Phil Harrison again.

We need our console to have a good launch. Let's hire the guy who was part of the bad ps3 and xbone launches! :downs:

It's a genuinely nice idea but I don't know how even the company with all of the money in the world actually makes it stay afloat.

Wanna call something out here; the 60fps is a lie, Digital Foundry only reported 30fps on their benchmarks. Unless something has changed since last year.

I mean I don't know why anyone really thought they were gonna go "We're making fifty games now!" Game dev is an inherently risky business proposition even if you have $Texas so there's no way they're gonna open up a bunch of studios that might not make money, they're fuckin' Google.

switching devices like that is kinda cool. i wonder if stuff like controller settings per platform works nicely or sucks rear end.

It's a streaming game service that works on every platform. You can use any controller you want but Google has their own controller too. No actual Google console announced yet.

Whatever, this isn't for me. I don't want to play games on my phone and when I do want to play on the go, I don't want to play the same type of games I play on my PC.

No, dude was pretty clear about saying that there was no box. Just their new controller and the streaming platform

I'm not able to watch the stream, have they gotten to the part of the presentation where they list all of the devices that are supported and iPhones and iPads are conspicuously absent?
