Microsoft utannonserade själva en stream-tjänst för spel under årets E3. Men trots det, tycks Xbox-chefen Phil Spencer inte tro att det är något som kommer ersätta traditionella konsoler den närmsta tiden. Till LevelUp förklarar han:
"No. There are certain scenarios where a stream game is the best answer. On a console the best scenario for you is to download that game and play. If you are on a PC that`s capable of download and play that game, download and play that game. Not all devices are capable of playing the most demanding games that we see here on the show, so streaming is an option in those scenario, and there are some scenarios of like instant start and trials where maybe streaming on a device might be interesting, but I think for years and years the best way to play a game will be to download that game and play it. The same thing on PC. I think streaming is something that is further out in terms of it becoming a really mass marked where everybody`s doing it, and even way further out before it`s the best way to play that game, if it ever is.
It's about giving you a choice as a player, not about replacing what you do today."
Kort sagt menar Spencer att det snarare är ett alternativ till vanliga konsoler och nedladdade/fysiska spel än något som lär ta över. Tror du han har rätt eller är streamat framtiden?
