>That is a factually incorrect statement. Oh, so if I cancel my Stadia subscription I can still play the games?

  TLDR: Yes. As far as I can tell from [1] the situation is: * Per-game purchase price. * There's a free 1080p streaming tier. * There's a $10/mo 4k streaming tier, which also includes discounts on games and some free games. * However, you won't be able to convert your Stadia-purchased games into local games or Steam codes. * And of course you won't be able to close your Stadia/Google account and still keep your games.

    Thanks for the info. I've been considering a new console purchase and had basically ruled out Stadia immediately due to the subscription requirement. This changes things a bit but I still don't like the fact that I can't play something without a connection to the big Google. I suppose this is just what it feels like to be part of a generation falling out of the marketing window.

    Will account closure or suspension of other google services result in loss of access like the stories we've seen for Gmail?
