A serious contender in the set-top gaming market and easily the best Android TV box yet.

The three remasters were downloaded through Netflix 18 million times in their first month.
Netflix‘s mobile download numbers have reportedly risen drastically thanks to the addition of Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition to the service. All three remasters were made available to Netflix members on December 14 via the App Store, Google Play, and in the Netflix mobile app.
Players are able to download and play the games as part of their Netflix subscription, with no extra charges. As a result of this high-profile addition to its library, Netflix has seen a sharp increase in monthly game downloads, according to Appmagic data reported via Mobilegamer.biz.
According to the data, Netflix’s monthly game downloads were around 10 million in November 2023, but this shot up to around 28 million in December 2023.
18 million downloads across the GTA trilogy on Netflix is incredible numbers and dwarfs the total number of Starfield downloads. This highlights that whilst Microsoft wants Game Pass to be the 'Netflix of gaming' its reach is currently just as a complementary service to the Xbox games console. Whereas Netflix because it is so ubiquitous has the potential to be the real Netflix of gaming and do what Sony, Microsoft and Google Stadia all have dreamed of doing and reach the casuals who never dreamed of buying a console.
Now you can download games on to your iOS/Android device, for sure Netflix is looking to offer full triple-A games that are streamed via the cloud on their TV app.
New Zealand's PikPok has released their relaxing new cat adoption simulator for both Android and iOS.
Level Infinite has announced strategy game Command & Conquer: Legions for iOS and Android via a licensing agreement with intellectual property owner Electronic Arts.
More mobile games. Can't believe the last command and conquer game was Tiberian Twilight not only was it a awful game. It was 13 years ago.
EA have been trying to shoehorn C&C into a live service/ mobile game since 2009 it's not happening now give us another generals
Disgusting that this IP has outside of the excellent C&C Remastered been regulated to awful mobile games.
Command and Conquer should have had a passionate team assigned and come roaring back years ago.
If we needed further evidence that EA is dumb as hell with their IP, behold their latest blunder
I have a brand new Bravia Android TV, and while it's an amazing TV, there aren't many Android TV-compatible apps right now. The OS also has some glitches, like when you click left or right a few times in the UI the screen will glitch for a second and move your cursor/selector back a spot.
This is my favorite purchase in several years. And I own a high-end gaming PC, a PS4 and an Xbox One. My favorite feature is definitely Gamestream - streaming great-looking PC games to the TV in my living room. Mine works great with my PC on wifi, however, I am using an AC router on a 5G connection. If you don't have that, you would likely need to be connected with a LAN cable.
The controller is, in fact, about as good as the 360 controller, which to me, is amazing. The only other controllers I've enjoyed as much are my DS4 and my Dreamcast controllers.
My only complaint would be Nvidia's support. Occasionally an update comes out with a bug (currently none of us can Google Cast [i.e. Chromecast] anything) and good luck getting a solid answer out of Nvidia on when a fix is coming.
For 200 bones, this is a GREAT purchase, especially for anyone looking to stream their PC games to their TV.
