Nvidia GeForce Now - UPDATE More Devs Pulling Out But Xbox Goes In

GFN is so much better than Xcloud.

Just streamed Starfield at 4K, ultra settings around 100fps with their ultimate membership. Minimal input lag.
Do they have info on what the game, or any game, runs on? Like we know all games in gpu run off Xbox series x in their servers.
 
Yes as other said GFN is leaps an bounds better performance wise than x-cloud. Other than the server wait queues even the free tier is pretty good.

£200 a year just to play your own games, though. Then you might not be able to play when you want, and your playtime is limited.

It has its place. For people on the go alot like myself, I can see the value. I like having the option. But for others I can see it absolutely not being worth it at all.

Price will keep going up. Game support seems to be in a not so great place. Limitations likely to increase.

A steam Deck is what...$350?

My latency is measured as 19. The latency was pretty bad last time I checked, but I haven't tried it in a while.
 
This is actually the big issue with these services, lack of capacity. Last I looked the top tier GFN was "Sold Out" lol. I mean really.

Xcloud also has long ques.
Dang, never looked into it.

I haven’t had any que issues at work, whilst on my phone, maybe waited like less than a minute, with xCloud. But this is using GeForce now servers to play games you own in steam and or epic store to your Xbox.

I have zero issue streaming games from my Xbox or PlayStation to my iPad or phone tho.

Do not try the GFN free tier. There's always a long queue that takes hours to actually get into.

Just re-upped to the Ultimate Tier today.

Can't. Not even an option to try free anymore.

Weird thing is the 3080 version has 1 month sub as sold out, but you can still get the 6 month sub.

I thinks Nvidia is playing games.
