A Gaming Podcast Episode 115
In this episode of A Gaming Podcast, we break down the growing push toward cloud-based PCs and why Jeff Bezos and Amazon are betting big on a future where you rent your computer instead of owning one.
We explore the implications of this shift for gamers, hardware manufacturers, and the broader PC ecosystem — including the risks, benefits, and significant industry implications if cloud-based machines replace traditional desktops and laptops.
We also discuss how this affects performance, ownership, pricing, privacy, and whether players will actually accept a world where their “PC” lives entirely on Amazon’s servers.
Would you trust a cloud PC as your main system, or is this a step too far?
