I meant Stadia but after a quick google it appears to be still going, although still not that many games on it.

Ok...yes is still going but it's a poor choice. Google, sony, nvidia, microsoft...all of them are trying to make grow streaming services but the hardcore gamer knows that it's not convenient. At the end you spend the same that buying hardware or console or slightly less with all the problems that gaming on stream has. And let's say also that a real gamer LOVES is hardware. I love my pc and my console...this is it!
Gaming on stream it's for casual gamers in my opinion.
p.s. I started with an amiga 500 many years ago...i know what means "love your hardware"...that was the golden age of gaming!

I saw a Stadia ad on Youtube just the other day so they are obviously still trying to promote it even though I agree with @natansharp its basically shit service.... unless you have fiber going to your house your not going to have reliable gameplay never mind the graphic levels they are never going to get PS5/XboxX style graphics over streaming. 
I think if they did a xbox live type of thing where you pay monthly and get all the games you want that may be worth it for the casual gamer. But I would advise everyone to not waste their money or time with this one. :)

I think we all knew this was coming but Google ;) just a shame that people waisted their time and money on this failed effort. Concept is sound, but the infrastructure is not.

Typical google product, but good news for anyone who has bought it as apparently you can get a refund if you bought it through the Google store.
