There is a no monthly fee version that you only have to buy games to use eventually that will be limited to 1080p streams. 4k costs a monthly fee + the cost of games though they are saying there will be some discounts to games if you're paying for the better service.

But the issue is that the games with 4k, are currently only upscaled to 4k - https://9to5google.com/2019/11/20/stadia-4k-games-quality/

Oh yeah the whole thing is kind of a shit show right now but that's what they're pitching so I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt for the moment and treating this like one big early access trial for the minute. From all indications this launch came in incredibly hot with the lineup doubling at the last minute, almost as if they had some last minute major issues with some of their Linux ports.

Two of those games are motion type games (dance, exercise).

The stadia controller doesn’t have motion controls.

Those games are useless, who’ll pay $60 for them?
