Engadget Podcast: Google Stadia and the future of game streaming services

This week, we discuss the problematic launch of Google’s Stadia cloud-based games service. Our senior editor and resident games expert Jessica Conditt joins us to share what she thought of the service, how it fares against Microsoft’s Xcloud and what she thinks of streaming games in general. Also, as we head into Thanksgiving, it’s time to think about your holiday shopping and the deals you might be able to score for you and your loved ones on Black Friday. We have some tips for that. Plus, the recent, old-school, and straight up old games that we’ve been playing.

We’ll be taking a break for Thanksgiving, so come back in two weeks for a new post-food coma episode.
