Google is looking at online games as a new possible source of income for YouTube, according to a new report by the Wall Street Journal.

How much drugs do they take at Google?

@CookieJarObserver @nanoUFO Enough to think that Stadia 2 is going to happen.
STOP IT GOOGLE is not gonna happen. No one thinks that it’s fetch.

Kind of reminds me of flash games in that you can play in on the browser (well you can play more than that now) but without any of the soul that made flash games fun.

People are very understandably dubious because of the Stadia fiasco, but this is a lot more promising. IMO, this have been what they tried first. There’s a huge market for casual games that people can play on their phones or tablets, and these often don’t suffer from the strict input lag requirements that bedevil cloud gaming.

Knowing Google, though, chances are they’ll fuck up the execution.
