That's interesting, because MSFT has their own cloud gaming service but yet it seems Nvidia is steadily growing.

Yeah, but I think that in this case, I think nVidia has a VASTLY superior backend than Microsoft, and they’ve been developing it for much longer.

I hope that means that I’ll be able to finish my 100% play through of Doom 2016 (Kadingir Sanctum is calling my name!)

I'm hoping to see Bethesda games now there, I'd love to play Fallout 76 on my MBP, but I can't at the moment.

Microsoft also announced that Xbox games will come to the Nintendo Switch.

While this is cool, I wonder if they would be doing any of this if they were not trying to buy Activision/Blizzard...

Maybe not. But its great that they are doing it anyhow - GeForce Now is awesome (if it had more good games).
