    More Assassin’s Creed: Odyssey streamed via Google’s #ProjectStream Beta. After fixing my Ethernet connection, I’m able to play at 600/800Mbps and…it…is…lovely!

    I also learned that #ProjectStream has plug n’ play support for PS4 DualShock Controllers. This is HUGE! Trying to get a PS4 controller to work on a Windows machine is normally a pain. But I’m using Chrome, so the OS is no longer a concern.

    Project Stream is Google’s attempt to bring 4k video game streaming to everyone with a computer and a modest internet connection. In this video I let you experience the Project Stream as I experience it, playing the just-released Assassin’s Creed: Odyssey, for the very first time. Could Project Stream be the future of video gaming?

    Overall, I’m really impressed. My computer is old. My graphics card and processor are woefully inadequate to play Assassin’s Creed: Odyssey. But I was able to stream reliably. There is some frame-skipping but not enough to be annoying.
