It's also available on Stadia. I don't understand the hate generated here for this platform. I've got half a dozen games here and they've all been fine. The only glitch so far was the audio on Fallen Order got out of sync but I don't know if that's latency related. I picked up Rage 2 on sale and I've been enjoying it much more than the first one.

So let's see:
- No mod support
- Online only
- Geographically limited (where do you live Bill?) unless you can deal with latency
- Graphical artifacts due to streaming compression
- Requires a very fast, uncapped internet connection
- You don't own your games.
- Limited titles
- Google's history of shutting down services
- Does it have any community features yet?

I'd like to add that it was in the news not too long ago that for people that have Comcast service, they announced they're going to be data capping all their customers to like 1tb a month. I can't see how streaming services can succeed with mandatory data caps implemented. I don't personally have Comcrap as it's known, but that would suck if someone used something like this only to find out, they've been shutdown (or heavily throttled) for the rest of the month due to exceeding limts...
