This idea is not stupid but current technology makes it difficult to market to everyone. Once high-speed broadband (that can support this service) is available to all at a low-cost, then it'll be like a Netflix service for video games. Until then, people may experience input lag and other difficulties that degrade the service's quality. Just need to give it time. |

Hang on. It costs the same as on Steam and this platform.
Tell me, why would I choose this over Steam? |
