Digitec Podcast Episode 132: Google Stadia is dead, long live cloud gaming
Google Stadia has finished streaming. We look back on four turbulent years and which suppliers have a better chance of survival. We also talk in detail about "The Last of Us" series.
The hype was huge, but so was the scepticism. In the end, the critical voices about Google Stadia proved to be right. After four years, the game streaming service was cancelled. We explain how this came about and which competitors are doing it better.
After that, we discuss the first episode of the HBO adaptation of "The Last of Us". First up is the spoiler-free discussion. At the end of the podcast, we don't hold back for anyone who has already seen the episode.
We played two completely contrasting games. On the one hand, the cuddly "Lil Gator Game" and next to it the bloodthirsty "The Calisto Protocol".

As a child, I wasn't allowed to have any consoles. It was only with the arrival of the family's 486 PC that the magical world of gaming opened up to me. Today, I'm overcompensating accordingly. Only a lack of time and money prevents me from trying out every game there is and decorating my shelf with rare retro consoles.
From the latest iPhone to the return of 80s fashion. The editorial team will help you make sense of it all.
