Stadia was heaven sent and it was sad to let it go. Today I started playing It Takes Two with my wife on the steam deck and using the Stadia controller brought back pleasant memories.

The controller is actually very nice. It is a shame Google killed stadia, it was a nice service to supplement the few games I wanted to play that I couldn't get on Nintendo, without having to go out and buy an Xbox or PlayStation. But I guess the steam deck now fills that void.

It always looked nice for something to do during a lunch break, play a little destiny.

Yeah it was also great because it integrated with Google TV well. The recent game you played was integrated with the "ongoing watch" list. So you can quickly pick up and play just like a TV show you've been watching. I thought for sure that was genius and would make playing video games more mainstream for people who don't really play video games. That was the audience Google should have pivoted towards to keep it afloat. Oh well...
