anything really

id recommend a laptop from asus or dell that isn't a netbook with an atom processor

if youve heard bad things about either of those brands in the past, theyve been doing very well the past couple years and are among the top for lowest failure rates within 3 years for laptops

that said the bracket for failure between the best and the worst is only a difference of about 5%,  most modern laptops with a skylake processor should be enough for WoW

thing is psnow does this already and it works

i was under the impression that psnow sucked and nobody used it though

i think the problem was the service was annoying to deal with and navigate

there's not that many games on it, the psnow subscription doesn't give you access to the entire library either, only a fraction of it

once you bought the time, say 4 hours, you cant buy extra time until that 4 hours runs out

then you have to buy the 7 day if you like it, you cant buy the 7 day during those 4 hours

a lot lies on your connection quality, when it worked, it worked well, however if there were any interruptions or your speed dropped low enough it would just kick you from the game and you'd have to reconnect or start up the game again

if you were playing a game where you had to save manually, youd lose that progress, or if you were playing a racing game where you were in the middle of an hour long race, or anything really that interrupts the experience, that's it and probably the last time you use that service

though i guess thats why it sucks

i can think of ways they can make this better, like automatically pause the game when they're not connected, or better yet freeze the process like a 3DS does when you close it and after about half an hour if the person hasn't reconnected in that time it would copy the memory into storage like a windows PC does when it hibernates

the streaming itself and latency doesnt seem to be much of a problem, 5mbps is a fairly low requirement, and a lot of people have been saying it's smooth at 10mpbs, either of those speeds seem to be below the standard these days, so they probably knew enough people would have access to good enough internet for it to be worth keeping up

Yeah, gotta wait and see for sure. There's two big issues with this. One, technical feasibility. It's one thing to be able to run the game elsewhere through the cloud and do so at high framerates and top notch settings. But to have it register your inputs, send it to their systems, be processed in their systems, sent back to your PC and then displayed on your screen? That's a big latency risk. And depending on what game you play, even a few ms of delay can really screw things up. Two, pricing scheme. Your casual gamer probably doesn't care enough about his games to pay an extra fee on top of his own system and the game itself, making having to pay per hour you play a pretty big turn off for most (I imagine, at least). And your gaming enthusiast tends to already put in so many hours of game time that the yearly cost of the streaming service could probably net him a decent PC that will last him a while and that he can game on as much as he wants without having to worry about paying for playtime. I'm sure there's a market for it, but those are two pretty big obstacles.

thing is psnow does this already and it works

obviously with a big dependency on your internet quality

yeah the price sucks but you dont have to buy the games

few ms of delay probably wont be noticeable, but if you were talking tens, maybe a little

we were talking above about how it definitely wouldnt work for vr since youd need under 15ms

Btw Pepsi did you upload that countach paint job?

which paintjob are you talking about

what reason did they have for delaying the CK anyway
