What?!
Are there any benefits of Stadia over Game Pass? I guess maybe the permanence of the games on Pro? I can't think of many.
It's mad, isn't it?
From what I understand, being able to hide / delete / unclaim or even just sort games in some way is one of the longest standing and most requested updates by users, but nope, they can't or won't do it.
As for the Gamepass comparison, I'm aware there are cheaper ways to get GP, but the basic monthly charge of £8.99 on Pro is at least £2 cheaper.
But for that £2, the sheer range and quality of what is available software wise mean there is absolutely no comparison at all. Gamepass would win hands down, and it should be as simple as that.
However, as Jawa rightly says, it's not actually so easy to compare the two in terms of what they are offering. I think the fact that most people won't see that shows just how badly Google have gotten across the idea of Stadia and also of Pro.
It's a bit like comparing a lemon with a cat because the software experience is so tied up with the hardware. But hey, had a glass of wine, so I'll give it a go. Batten down the hatches, spam haters.
