On Tuesday, Google announced Stadia, a service that lets you play games by way of a wide variety of devices and an internet connection, similar to how you watch shows and movies on Netflix.

The selling point for Stadia is convenience: You don't need a hunky game console or expensive PC. Just a TV, browser, phone or low-end PC that can surf the web using Google's Chrome browser. And a specialized controller from Google that connects to its service over Wi-Fi.
