The days of an always-online console are still a few years away from being possible, but it is the path our market is moving towards, not consoles that offer a few nifty hardware upgrades. Google Fiber is, as odd as that may sound, the next generation of gaming and here's why...

EK Cooling allegedly has slipped itself into a hot soup of seemingly endless financial woes, where it has not paid its staff, suppliers, and contractors for many months as the company is facing liquidity problems and a surplus of inventory left unsold, stuck in the warehouse for a more extended period. Gamers Nexus investigated these claims made by former and current personnel, where he found trails of unpaid bills lasting as long as three to four months and unpaid raises that accumulated for almost a year.
EK Water Blocks has two entities—a Slovenian-based headquarters and a US-based subsidiary, EK Cooling Solutions. Steve narrated the series of events in detail, stating that the company was reportedly irresponsible and negligent regarding payment. Consequently, partners and employees are forced to share the burden of alleged mismanagement. It all begins with its extensive range of products, leading to a surplus of goods. EK has over 230 water blocks, 40 liquid cooling kits, 85 reservoirs, 40 pumps, 73 radiators, and 212 miscellaneous accessories.
Yes this is not about video games directly but indirectly this will impact the pc gaming/workstation space hard.
This company is massive one of two in the water cool space so if it goes poof then thousands out there have no spare parts or half built computers.
SO yeah i know not about a video game but think of it as amd leaving the pc space but this is ekwb that could be leaving water cooling in the pc space

As someone that has built a watercooling rig. EK is big, but there's so many numerous watercooling part companies out there. EK's stuff isn't exactly amazing quality for the price compared to others either, it's just ok. Much like Corsair. The impact would be negligible long term. For perspective the majority of my parts are XSPC, at most I use EK for my gpu waterblocks and fittings. Both easily replaceable.

Until Google fiber gets mass market penetration...no. But, I'm looking forward to the day it does.
I'll reserve judgment until Google Fiber starts expanding to new states instead of new neighborhoods.
I freaking want this in my state! Come on Google, you can dominate the world if you expand this...
That's huge, i own a 100up/100 down speed for 100 dollars a month, 20 more for a 10 times faster internet? hell yeah
36Mbs Down 10Mbs up and it's fine for me... no lag which is all that matters.
The author of this article is a buffoon. How could anyone be pro-always online/pro-stream and talk about how much of a inconvenience it is for him to own a physical copy. I don't care how many games you own... it's not like you play them all so it's unnecessary to claim how much of a hassle it is to transport everywhere and I could care even less about how clumsy you are with your 360. I personally won't fork over cash for strictly digital content knowing it would turn into some subscription based service which you pay for but own nothing. Unless it's like netflix where you pay a low monthly fee but have access to the entire library then it's never going to work... they'll want you to pay a monthly fee and then pay for the game on top of it... NO WAY.
All speculative of course... but it's the obvious outcome.
