6 Reasons why Google Stadia will fail

#1. Microsoft and Sony will have better, cheaper and more powerful machines to offer

Will Stadia overcome the stiff competition?

Microsoft and Sony are due for a new edition of the Xbox and (we're assuming) the PS5 which will have significantly higher hardware capabilities and with ray tracing. The Stadia claims to have 10.7 GPU Teraflops, much higher than the Xbox One X and PS4 Pro.

While that might be true, the new consoles from Sony and Microsoft are expected to have over 20 teraflops with their GPUs as well as 8K resolutions. The Stadia is releasing at a time shortly only before their release.

The PS5 and Xbox Scarlett we assume will cost around $500 or so with much higher capabilities and more exclusive games on the platform. The shelf life of the system will be cheaper than the Stadia (if you're not paying for the Xbox Game Pass or PS Plus subscriptions) since you only really need to pay for the games and the console at minimum.
