Stadia is the Best Place to Buy FIFA 23
FIFA fans are in a league of their own when it comes to loyalty – choosing the same platform generation after generation in order to continue playing with the same friends. But, as EA releases its final FIFA iteration, it may be time for a change. Let’s look at the reasons why Stadia is the […]
Read MoreAfter Trying for Years, Stadia is What Finally Got Me to Like Assassin’s Creed

I tried to play every single Assassin’s Creed game up to Unity, including the original. I understand they all have their strengths, that the different settings appeal to different people, and that even the gameplay can change across titles. I even tried Valhalla when it first released and couldn’t find the motivation to spend more […]

Microsoft’s purchase of Activision Blizzard is still pending regulatory approval, and plenty of drama surrounds it, including some interesting comments from Sony that “COD is a game that people buy consoles for” (despite it being multiplatform for 15+ years). It’s a move that follows other big acquisitions over the last few years, including Zenimax, Bungie, […]
Read MoreEnjoying Stadia and its Benefits as a Nintendo Switch User
Ever since I was gifted a Game Boy Color and a copy of Pokémon Yellow, I’ve been a user of Nintendo and a fan of its franchises. Despite having an amazing lineup of first-party titles, it’s no secret that the third-party support had been a bit scarce – especially when talking about the AAA space […]
Read MoreStadia is the ONLY Cloud Platform
Sometimes when I tell people that I play on Stadia, the response I get back is along the lines of “why don’t you play on a better cloud platform.” Well, I am sorry to tell you this but, there are no other cloud gaming platforms! Sure, cloud gaming is all the rage right now. It […]
Read MoreGoogle Stadia’s First Half of 2022 in Review
In retrospect, 2021 was a lower-key year for Google Stadia, with fewer major announcements regarding the platform itself compared to 2020. While several important new platform features dropped (e.g. Android TV and LG TV support, State Share, Direct Touch, Controller tethering, Ubisoft+ rollout, Public Parities) many users eagerly awaited even more proof that the platform […]
Read MoreWhy I “Shill” For Stadia…
Yes. I said it. It’s about time I admitted it. I’m a Stadia “Shill.” A Stan. A die hard. Though, I’m not payed a cent by Google and it probably is not for the reasons you might think… I have always enjoyed gaming. Ever since I was a kid playing Qbert and Pitfal on the […]
Read MoreFIFA 23 Could Mean More for Stadia than You Think
FIFA 23 was announced for Stadia earlier this week. And, whilst this is undeniably brilliant news, there could be more to it than meets the eye. Back in 2020 when Stadia and EA first announced their partnerships, it was stated that EA would be bringing 5 games to the platform. Over the following 2 years, […]
Read MoreStaying Cool With Stadia
As the temperatures in the UK soar, I, like many, have elected to stay indoors as much as possible. Sitting in shade, being fanned, and getting lost in gameplay. Weirdly, as the fans whirred and the sweat beaded on my forehead, I was transported back to playing on last generation’s consoles – to that familiar […]
