Boosteroid Cloud Gaming Review: Better than GeForce Now?

#Boosteroid is the latest cloud streaming platform on the market. Boasting hundreds of games available and a solid streaming infrastructure, they seem posed for success. However, with the largest cloud infrastructure players (Amazon, Microsoft, and NVIDIA) all vying for a chunk of the cloud gaming market, can an independent company from Europe even keep up? (Spoilers: Yes.)

Extra notes on recording:
All gameplay footage not showing the actual device was captured using an Elgato capture card and the connection type described in the video. During initial testing, 5G support was tested in several locations to see how it held up. Unfortunately, the week we shot this video was also the week that air quality in Chicago tanked to dangerous levels. So, unfortunately, footage is limited to a 5G connection in my office. (Sorry about that.)

As part of the free play hours, Boosteroid also requested I provide y'all with this statement from them: "If you experience technical problems on the Boosteroid platform, please contact Boosteroid support immediately in the Live chat in the bottom-right corner of their website or via support@boosteroid.com. The support works 24/7 and will be able to help."

I just gotta say I love how down to earth this channel is. Personally I hop between geforcenow and xcloud both for my in home gaming on my potato PCs as well as for portability on my phone and tablet. But I wouldn't mind testing Boosteroid if they expand.

GeForce is superior in both quality and performance. Boosteroid has to 'install' the game each time you play, there is compression and input lag. It doesn't remember your in-game settings and can take a long time to close a game, if it closes at all. GeForce starts games instantly. The streaming is crispy clear with no lag, better machines and the interface is far more user-friendly and with more options and settings. I subscribed to both to test them but GeForce is better, no contest.

Yes but geforce has been slow on picking up the best new titles recently

I think that it also depends some games run very well smooth on it while others dont. Like for example On Geforce Now the steam COD Warzone version is very smooth responsive atm!. While the Boosteroid Battlenet version is unstable laggy current atm. But It has also vs 3-4 years when it came out improved alot not 100% but to a big degree since it has become more stable!

Between GeForce Now, Shadow PC, and Maximum Settings, there is absolutely zero reason to give Boosteroid a second thought. Literally every single aspect of the service is inferior, and the overwhelming majority of my library (from TWWIII to Risk of Rain) runs terribly, with damaging input lag and (at certain times) almost criminal visual compression. And this doesn't even include the DELUGE of bugs the service causes in a variety of games.

GeForce would be so much better if they had more games I’m interested in. GeForce has more games than boosterioid but boosterioid has way more games I’m actually interested in playing

@@animals4ever177 I'm with ya there. The GeForce library can be awfully lacking - because for some reason they require a long list of people to sign off on every game they use on both sides of the exchange.
