@roadrunner343 very true they will just create hardware for the situation. However other companies have done this and failed, and although Google are big, no one is big enough to avoid failure. I will wait until its available to fully judge, but i can see it now ending up with blurry laggy games that become unplayable as your internet buckles . Fingers crossed its better than previous attempts

Once again another company takes a crack at Streaming games.... I mean look how much of a success they have all been so far! Look at Onlive, truly a gaming marvel unparalleled in it's levels of success.... Seriously though why Google. You don't even have the biggest cloud infrastructure, Amazon does. Even though the internet is better than it was even just a few years ago, Games are much bigger than they were and require more data to be playable. Unless Google has some magical way to give all of their audience better internet, this is pretty much a waste of time. Can you imagine trying to play a fast-paced fighter or shooter via streaming? Just not viable

Re: Assassin's Creed III Remastered Gets Official Release Date, But It Seems The Switch Rumours Were False

@NotTelevision Exactly. I haven't played origins and Odyssey yet so not sure what their tutorials are like. BOTW opening was amazing, as it wasn't so much a tutorial, but an introduction to a smaller area, before giving you the whole map. Off topic slightly but I also don't like that the latest AC uses the same climbing system as BOTW. Part of the fun to AC climbing was finding a route. Sure BOTW climbing was great too, but it worked in that world, AC I imagine would lose something by using that climbing system

Re: Random: New York Times Crossword Puzzle Forgets That The Wii U Was A Thing

The Wii u still sits proudly just below my Switch. It was a system with many great ideas ( and unfortunately many terrible ones), but most of all it's games were fantastic, and Nintendo had a similar mentality as the Gamecube, in just throwing every idea they could at it, giving us Splatoon, Mario maker,the anti gravity of Mario Kart 8, an amazing Smash bros, the best HD remaker ever ( Wind waker) Xenoblade chronicles X, Pikmin 3, Hyrule Warriors,Mario 3d world , DK tropical freeze and dozens more. Sadly, when you barely advertise the system, don't make it clear what it is, and honestly, over charge for it.It was unfortunately screwed before it ever had a chance
