Xbox failed at game streaming. Nvidia failed at game streaming. Steam failed at game streaming. Google catastrophically failed at game streaming.
But I'm sure Netflix will be fine.
Steam failed? I use Steam link all the time and I also use remote play with friends. These are both examples of streaming.
Is there another Steam streaming that I'm not aware of?
I don't know of anything else as well from steam. Seems like they are doing pretty good lol
OKAY, I knew someone was going to call it out. Yes, Steam Link failed. I loved it, we all loved it, but commercially it was a flop. They thought everyone who had a steam account would jump at the opportunity to stream their games, and many of us did, but it wasn't as huge of a deal as they thought, and it's why they stopped making them.
However the technology was good, and paved way for modern steam streaming and with the controller gave us the Deck today. They pushed forward. The Link though, was a commercial flop.
I agree, however I meant steam link the technology, not the little box they made. I run steam link on a raspberry pi and the steam deck you mentioned is a good example of the tech as well.
Thanks for the additional insight.
Netflix is only doing mobile games anyway.
Which hey, if they focused on that and party games, maybe that could work. I don't know of anyone who uses them though
They need a "are you with a group of friends and drinking? We got the thing for you"
I would definitely get down on some You Don't Know Jack trivia stuff.
into the breach is fine on mobile. there are also some games that would be good on the tv with a controller like dead cells, but atleast they dont offer games via the fire tv stick app, dont know if i could download them on something with android proper.
As other comments have said, they aren't even doing game streaming, just mobile games. You can already download mobile games through heir app on a phone with a subscription.
And Steam didn't really fail, it excels at streaming games around a network. Xbox games can all be streamed with game pass and its pretty good.
