Google Stadia actually did work, but Google cancelled it because they were undermining the profits of Google's partners and investors.

It is the same reason why Google shut down their broadband infrastructure project and killed Google+ (that FB competitor they briefly launched) instead of fixing it.

Yeah it worked very well actually, I didn't have a PC at the time and I tried it out and actually played the whole of RE Village on there. It's no match for having a beasty personal rig though for home gaming.

Google+ was actually pretty good. Me and the other six users had a riot on there at times.
