Cloud gaming and game streaming is indeed a great way of playing your favorite AAA titles on low-end devices. I mostly use Parsec myself, it works great for game streaming from your PC or even as a remote desktop client for work (in fact, I mostly use it for the later purpose). They've recently released a client for Android which should work on your Chromebook. Apart from short test of GeForce NOW, I never bothered with cloud gaming as I have a high-end PC which I can stream from securely using a home VPN (yes, VPNs are not just for hiding your IP !) with relatively low latency even over the Internet. Sony has cloud gaming in form of PlayStation Now but not on Android yet.

Just got the Lenovo 300e Chromebook so I'll reference this video when I get it

I wish I waited to buy a chrome book. It seems so much better to have now compared to when they first came out.

Great video. Just came at a good time . I am looking for a cheap chrome book

The trick here is to use an Intel CPU Chromebook since they have more solid single core performance and can also Crossover/Wine older Windows titles. Android apps will still run on intel Chromebooks since Google did some emulation magic. There is a Ryzen 5 Chromebook around somewhere that's incredibly powerful. And there's also an i3 and an i5 as well.

Hi eta, Just dropping a quick note, videos are awesome one of the best on KZread. I just completed my mini itx build from your inspiration a couple of months ago, everything works fine but having trouble getting a xbox 360 controller to work on BF3. As i know you use controller on your games, any ideas would be appreciated. 🎮 Gee

stadia worked really well on my Ideapad Duet.

The possibilities are becoming endless, especially on these cheaper Chromebooks.

I would like to know more about ps now in its current state and peoples real experiences. The only thing I’m not a fan of is they use ps3 ports whenever they can, and those seem to be the most sluggish when compared to ps4 or ps2 (damn cell processor). That’s one thing I’ll give xcloud, if there’s a current gen version of a streamable game, that’s the one you will get. Also, I’m not a fan of how they handle the rotating window of games with my small experience on ps now. When a game is in xcloud, especially a Microsoft one, you can bet it will stick around for a while. Even third party games microsoft has a good relationship with, like outer worlds and the Witcher 3, really make themselves at home on the service. When I tried ps now for the first time after a few “best of” recommendations, half of the games I wanted to play had left the service and I had no idea when they would return. And they were Sony exclusives and first party games. All of this being said, I think I’m gonna stream games and play on switch until modern gaming gets more competitive in price and exclusives. So I’m def open to ps now.

I’m a huge fan of dauntless and I’m super happy that I can play it on chrome book

hi. how do you unlock num lock? i have the same chrome book but its stuck on numbers. tried holding shift nothing works.

Are there really only certain kind of Chromebooks that can run any video gaming software including old Gameboys, emulators for video games originally for Nintendo and 3ds? Also including like call of duty, GTA, and Minecraft? Will they be under an account where you can play them with your existing data from other devices and download mods to certain games on a Chromebook? Also the emulator or account with multiplayer feature? Will they be able to work offline?

Which emulators would you recommend I use stand alone as opposed to using cores in Retroarch? I'm using a chromebook (Lenovo C630). Thanks.

Just a question, I know absolutely nothing about computers or anything, so could you inform me, does the Chromebook have anything better than NVIDIA GeForce 510, and Intel Core 2 Duo E8400

Yo ETA, how is the input lag? I have internet that says it’s 300 mbps but really hovers between 100-200 mbps with low latency on average, and instead of jumping into a new Xbox or ps, I was gonna let my chromebook through stadia and xcloud do some work until stock and prices go down (still have a switch) I don’t mind a little latency, but is this something I could mess around in social slayer in halo and still be decent? Again doesn’t have to be perfect, but just wanted an idea of your experience. I haven’t signed up for gamespass/streaming yet, but games like destiny and tomb raider on stadia seem pretty similar to their console ports, but also aren’t exactly dependent on competition or fast reflexes. Not afraid to break out the ol Ethernet cable if necessary as well. Let me know if ya see this :)

I recently got a Lenovo Chrombook Flex 3 {2in1} with the intention to use it with Google Stadia. However, using this laptop has been troublesome with constant disconnects. I have tried may recommended troubleshooting methods to no success. I suspect these laptops have poor wifi cards built in... At the beginning of this video you mention "AC-4 Wifi". I can't tell if my Lenovo has that. With the troubles I have been having, I don't feel confident it does. I have checked the specifications all around, but all I see is general info that its supports wifi and thats' it...Its so strange because I have no issues with Geforce Now.

An if/then jury rigging video on playing games on a chromebook. If you could play every game ever made on a chromebook but the games would only run if you stood on 1 leg while playing, would you do it?

Fun fact: you could use a GameCube adapter and connect it to a Chrome OS AKA Chromebook and play games that way. As long as you have GameCube controllers in an adapter and a freaking mindset of someone who has use Dolphin Emulator for a long time, you'll figure it out. Steps on how to do it Step 1: connect a gamecube adaptar (+controller) to your chrome OS computer. Step 2: go to settings and click Gamecube input Step 3: click gamecube controller 1 and press emulated Step 4: click each individual selection of inputs then match it on the controller If done correctly it should work perfectly as if you were on a gamecube console.
