In March of 2020, we reached out to all of Google Sadie's users for an interview. Out of all 17 of them, only one said yes. Ah! Okay, is this where I sit? Yeah, go ahead and just have a seat. Okay, great. Sorry, no, they're excited, I'm really nervous. I actually haven't done anything. Is this thing on? Yes, it's on, please don't fiddle with it too much. Sorry, sorry. If I look here or here. Okay, what? Okay, go ahead. So, tell us, why did you decide to back Google's Game Streaming service stadium? Yeah, so I love video games. I mean, who doesn't? I have an Xbox One, I have a PlayStation 4, and I have a Switch. And I love how portable the Switch is, but there's something so freeing, you know, about playing Assassin's Creed like top-tier games on your phone, of all places, but, you know, playing games anywhere, it's just so exciting. Right, so the concept of a console-free gaming platform really appealed to you? Yeah, for sure. I mean, again, as I said, like, just not being tied to one place, having to use a console, like, it's 2020, you know. So, how does it work? Oh, for sure, yeah, so, all you gotta do is plug this into your TV and away you go. Oh, so can you tell us how that's different from having a console plugged in? No, not at all. Well, that's great, so what's your experience with Google's stadium been like so far? Yeah. Oh, yeah. Uh, all right, Jordan, last round, are you ready? No, I'm not seeing any lag. Are you seeing some? Oh, me? Maybe a tiny bit on my end. No, look, no, I'm hitting you, see? And I just jumped over your head and I plugged. Did you see that plug? When I jumped over your head? You're just seeing it now. Yeah, it was a little bit ago, but, mate, yeah, I can't really. All right, oh, no, oh, you got me. I wasn't ready. Here comes my special move, Jordan. Did I do it? You won. Oh, yeah, now I'm seeing it. Yeah, you won. Good job. Jordan, you're still there? Yeah, we don't have to talk anymore. Yeah. Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't, I thought you'd like the buddy pass. Yeah. That's OK, now I get it. You're busy. You used to, are you still there? Play some Destiny. Yeah, that's all I've played. Right, Stadia released four months ago. Isn't there any fun exclusive games? I don't know. No, there's no exclusive games or no, they aren't fun. Uh, yes. OK, you didn't buy anything else like Tomb Raider or Assassin's Creed? Ah, you see, the thing with that is, when I paid 130 for the Stadia Founders Pack, I didn't realize I would then still have to buy all the games. So I can't really afford that right now, but it's OK, like I don't mind. I've played all those games, like every game on Stadia I've played before anyway, you know, on like Xbox and PlayStation and literally everywhere else years ago. So it's fine. I'm not missing out on anything. Well, you want to show us how to actually play Stadia, perhaps on your phone? Not on my phone, because it doesn't actually work on my phone yet. Ah, you got an older model phone. No, it's the newest model. It's just a Samsung, not a Google phone. OK, but what about the TV behind you? Is that where you usually play Stadia? Yes, that is one of the few places I can play Stadia. So I'll just go ahead and hook this back up and I'll show you how it works. Yeah, you just got to get up in here, which isn't always the easiest thing to do. OK, so that's in. And now I just need the controller. I can actually turn it on without the controller, which I left around here somewhere. Sorry. I haven't seen it in a while actually. I'm I haven't seen it in a while actually. Shoot. Oh, there it is. Yeah, I remember now. Sorry. So silly. I, as a chair, was a little wobbly. So I just had to manage to actually find a use for it. So I figured, you know, why let it go to waste? Am I right? So you just got to. Oh no. The battery is dead. So I can actually turn it on. How about your computer? Yes, that's an excellent idea. We'll go through the computer. Yeah. All right, here we are. Can I play some Stadia? Finally. Geez, you don't think it'd be easy. What's the cable for? Oh, the controller. Oh, because it's dead? I know, because it won't work in the computer without the cable. That doesn't seem right. I know. All right. Sorry, I made you wait. But we're gonna play Stadia. Get excited, guys. It's the future we're gaming. What now? I guess my three month trial just ran out. What did you pay for that again? $130 for how long? About three months. You never knew your membership. No. You Maybe, yeah, my computer. All right. Sorry. The way we're done.
