I called it. Sony and MS's partnership was Sony moving to the Azure server platform. I don't know if they have a secret sauce per se but Azure is a very mature platform with lots of support.
So MS won at the end of all this.
All they need to announce next is windows running on ps5
I never tried it when it was available.But PS runs Linux(*).
(*) Offer void at any time Sony decides.
I wish Linux was more mainstream. I haven't used it other than playing with Ubuntu years ago from a USB key, and it seems like a really good OS.Stadia built on Linux & Vulcan, seems a lot more work for devs porting. xCloud is Xbox just lift and shift.
Linux Mint was my OS for years. The only reason I on windows due to my art tablet which it runs best on Windows.I wish Linux was more mainstream. I haven't used it other than playing with Ubuntu years ago from a USB key, and it seems like a really good OS.
i'm not sure it works quite like that. More like you are streaming video of your X playing on your S..From linked WC article:
"According to an analysis by Ars Technica, xCloud only exhibited 67 milliseconds (ms) of input lag compared to Stadia's 166 ms. If you directly play Halo 5 on a console, you experience 63 ms of input lag."
So, that's...basically NO perceived lag??? Wowzers. This actually changes the entire gaming industry as we once knew it!
Plus, they are saying that you can use your own console as a server. I'd like to see more about that. Does this mean that I have an X on one screen and an S on another, I can tap the X for greater performance on the S? This would be pretty darn sweet.
