GRID Beta app for nVidia Shield

[Xorbot]

Hi, I just got the latest update for my nVidia Shield.  It contains a beta version of GRID.  This is the technology which allows that fancy virtualization of GPU and can allow streaming.

 

Here is a video I recorded.  It should be noted that I am on the east coast, and the data center is on the west coast.  Despite the long distance, my ping is still a pretty decent 69 ms, which is over the app's recommended 40 ms.  And even with that much latency, I must personally admit that it appears to be perfectly fine for a game like Darksiders 2.  Though, it is probably too much latency for a twitch shooter like BF4 or arcade fighting like Street Fighter 4.

 

 

Note: these games are fully playable, and they do not belong to my Steam library.  Let's also keep in mind that even if you witness a slight bit of latency, I am remotely streaming a game across the country and over the Internet and Wifi, and it is incredibly playable.

Here is some actual gameplay rather than me just pressing on some buttons:

 

 

I must say, the gameplay is more than adequate in terms of latency.

Wonder how it is from other countries like Australia

Let us know if it works in console mode too.. That would be great! Especially when the Ethernet adapter is released.. 1080p yo the TV!?!

It works in console mode but the streaming only sends you a 720p video stream, sadly.

And not too bad with recording, I much prefer internal recording like my own ->
