Right now IQ and framerate(in general) should be better on Stadia until xcloud Scarlett comes out. So I guess they have until then to sell it on not having to pay $4-500 for next gen console.Hey it works with cable TV. Nobody wants to pay hundreds or thousands for a new DVR and setup on their own when they can pay the cable company $20 a month to use their crappier DVR.
Forgetting about 1P games, they didn't show a lot of multiplats, could've even had said over x amount of games at launch or in first year.
In isolation I don't find the cost too bad at all. Just not sure how it holds up as a whole when compared to other services and devices.
