Take a look at Shadow https://shadow.tech/ https://shadow.tech/. It's different in that you manage your own gaming PC, but in some of ways that is preferable. With the Steam stream-to-device functionality you can effectively use it on devices that aren't directly supported by Shadow too.
- autotune 6y ago> You can play any Windows game, not just selectively supported ones This is a big selling point for Shadow vs the other platforms. I was considering doing something similar with an AWS image but if this is custom tailored to “just work” I’ll definitely give it a go.
- tomnipotent 6y ago> It's different in that you manage your own gaming PC I don't see any mention of this on the site, only: "After you subscribe, we create your Cloud PC in our nearest datacenter." Unless I misunderstood in that it's not your own PC, but an instance of one you have full control over.
- 323454 6y agoSorry for the ambiguity, I only meant that you manage installing games (and sometimes even drivers) yourself, as opposed to having a fully managed service where everything "just works" like Stadia. You're right that you don't get your own specific PC, which is actually part of the appeal. The hardware is abstracted away like in any cloud service, so you don't need to concern yourself with upgrading it or fixing it.
