Who have experience with GeForce now?
If yes,is it any good and would you recommend it?

    My brother uses it all the time. He has played games like Rainbow Six Siege and recently (due to it's sale for 3 dollars) The Division 2. They ran solid on his internet connection which I believe was 100mb/s or more. He is on Verizon's Fiber. Hope this info helps out. We play cross play games on Steam and Geforce Now.

    He also has Stadia's service but he was unhappy with how limited it felt (he could only play with people who owned the games through Stadia's store front). That I know of, there wasn't cross play with Steam players on that service.

    I use it. It's pretty good. Geforce now has one major issue for me, it's not input lag or anything like that... but it's changing settings. 

    For example, on The Division 2, if I set the settings to ultra, it will ask me to restart the game to apply settings, but everytime you restart the game it resets everything, and I have to reset to ultra, and on and on it goes. Not all games require you to do that, but some do. 

    Another issue is that, not all games on steam and stuff have been added quite yet.

    Otherwise.. performance is very good, no matter where you play. You can play on a cheap 300 dollar laptop, a mobile phone.. anything.

    Looks like Activision Blizzard just pulled all their games off GeForce Now.

    I did. Tested Destiny 2 which runs very good, even with below my 40MB bandwidth. 

    I must say, that Geforce is what Stadia should of been. Cross Play this days is a must. I hope Stadia learns something from Geforce and take (good) actions.

    There were some voices here, saying that Streaming Games will *never* be successful. Well, seems Geforce Now is what? 1 week since they launched their service and it starts being pretty popular.

    Imagine in 3-4 years with updates, fixes, etc and with 5G ( /ducks because ...it's not about bandwidth :) ) , how will Streaming Games will look like. 

    In max 5 years, the big players in the industry, will be something like Steam : A BIG library of games ( like Steam ) ... but playable everywhere and on every device , no matter if its a "high end or lower end PC".

    Saw that. I assume is because they didn't made a deal with Nvidia, yet? Maybe they will sign a contract of ..exclusivity with Stadia? Amazon maybe? We shall see.

    From recent reports I have read, the games were pulled due to a "misunderstanding" between the beta and release of geforce now.  They are in talks to fix that...  


    It's interesting that blizzard would even attempt to contract a deal with nvidia and geforce... because other streaming services like Shadow ... I can play anything I want there... blizzard games.. betas.. anything I want.  They really can't stop it from happening

    That's lovely to hear. 

    Exclusivity is for the most part, bad!

    Love it so far, dont need to wait for a game to download, the games always plays instant.

    Temtem is awesome, I can just play it on my mobile, controls are good.

    On pc I tried bdo, tera, ark survival.. works good. I just open geforce now, go fishing in bdo and play overwatch on pc.

    Best thing is I can play it 90 days for free.
