Amazon announces new cloud gaming service Luna
- paulpan 6y agoInitially it seems like a clone of Google Stadia: the controller, the native integration to Alexa and Twitch, and even the product tiers features (e.g. 1080p, 4k addon). Key difference is that it's a native game subscription service, more like Xbox Game Pass than Stadia, and buying games doesn't seem to be an option. Also more closely aligned with the game studios like Ubisoft. I wonder why it's not bundled with Prime subscription for a new/beta product. Might come down the line?

- astlouis44 6y agoAlmost all of the tech giants have a service now. Now Microsoft's acquisition of Zenimax seems obvious as a defensive move.... content will be key moving forward.
- DLay 6y ago>In a feature that sounds similar to Google Stadia’s integration with YouTube, Luna users will be able to jump into games directly from Twitch streams. I predict many Twitch viewers will drawn to the service so they can try and stream snipe their favorite personalities without having to buy the game.
