The best media streamer for geeks gets even stronger.
Nvidia’s dueling GeForce Now services just got a lot less complicated—and a whole lot more appealing for Shield TV owners. Originally created as a Netflix-like all-you-can-play subscription service for Nvidia’s set-top box, the waters became murkier with the beta launch of the wildly different (go.pcworld.com/gfno) GeForce Now for PCs and Macs, which essentially runs the PC games you already own on an Nvidia server in the cloud. Recently, Nvidia announced that the services are unified. Shield TV now runs the same version of GeForce Now as the PC and Mac.
