exclusive service you will not be able to plate exclusive cloud gaming services like stadium usually have great quality servers to handle the game bandwidth so there is a trade-off on that if you don’t plan on playing any games on any other platform the exclusive cloud gaming service is right for you the second type of cloud gaming service is the PC rental season PC gamers will love this option if you are the type to want freedom to install and play whatever you want whenever you want on a normal Windows PC this
Comparing Cloud Gaming to Traditional Gaming
option will be for you cloud PC rental services allow you to rent and get access to full high-end pcs to play your games or do anything else you want to do under certain limitations the PC rental services do limit harddrive space so you can’t install every game possible most PC rental services like shadow let you choose the PC package you want the better the package the better if the PC will be with more harddrive space if you cannot afford a custom high-end PC at home you can rent one for a minimal price this is one
