Cyberpunk 2077 could be a breathtaking experience.
While some are excited for the new platform, others think it’s too early. Xbox’s Phil Spencer doesn’t think that streaming will replace traditional methods of gaming quite yet.
Speaking with Gamespot Spencer said, “It’s one of the directions the industry is headed… To me, it’s about what you as a gamer want to do, and I’m not trying to tell you that owning a box that plays video games is a bad thing or that somehow that’s not needed
I think that the cloud inevitability as part of gaming is absolutely true, but we have more compute devices around us than we’ve ever had, whether it’s your phone, a Surface Hub, or an Xbox. The world where compute devices are gone and it’s all coming from the cloud just isn’t the world that we live in today.”
The Google Stadia Founder’s Edition is scheduled to launch in November, 2019.
