It seems as if HDR and 4K just take up too much bandwith. More than Stadia can handle. And probably more than most internet lines to the customer could handle.<\/p>\n<p>So Google took the bitter pill and decided to reduce resolution to either 1440p or even 1080p where bandwidth would exceed a certain level.<\/p>\n<p>However people did notice the difference and the first shitstorm against Google didn&#8217;t let wait long.<\/p>\n<p>Then Google has set up a rather unspectacular Game lineup for launch. One would have expected serious AAA titles at launch to compete with other streaming services.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-21332\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.netspark.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Stadia_Logo_White.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"512\" height=\"512\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.netspark.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Stadia_Logo_White.png 512w, https:\/\/blog.netspark.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Stadia_Logo_White-480x480.png 480w, https:\/\/blog.netspark.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Stadia_Logo_White-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/blog.netspark.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Stadia_Logo_White-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/blog.netspark.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Stadia_Logo_White-500x500.png 500w, https:\/\/blog.netspark.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Stadia_Logo_White-64x64.png 64w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 512px) 100vw, 512px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The price with 9.99 US$ per month is equal to other game streaming services.<\/p>\n<p>And then there&#8217;s the trailer which is (frankly said) so 2000&#8217;s:<\/p>\n<div style=\"width: 640px;\" class=\"wp-video\"><video class=\"wp-video-shortcode\" id=\"video-21331-1\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" preload=\"metadata\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"video\/mp4\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.netspark.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Stadia-Official-Launch-Trailer-_-Now-Available.mp4?_=1\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/blog.netspark.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Stadia-Official-Launch-Trailer-_-Now-Available.mp4\">https:\/\/blog.netspark.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Stadia-Official-Launch-Trailer-_-Now-Available.mp4<\/a><\/video><\/div>\n<p>So what do you think?
