Gone are the days of buying a new gaming console every few years. With Google's Stadia platform, the data center is your console. It provides near-instant streaming of games at 60 frames-per-second in up to 4K HDR quality across laptops, desktops, phones, tablets, and TVs with a minimum of 25mbps connections. While it works with existing controllers, a special Stadia controller will offer a direct WiFi connection to the cloud for easier screen-to-screen transitions, a dedicated streaming button. Just one of the many ways the service will tie into YouTube and give a dedicated Google Assistant button with special help options specifically for Stadia games. Arriving later this year, with further details, including pricing, expected this summer.

It will be coming soon! Debuted in concept form at the 2018 CES, LG's roll-up TV is a real product. Called the R9, it has a 65-inch OLED display that rolls up into a stylish metal box, which also houses a 100W Dolby Atmos audio system hidden behind Kvadrat fabric. While the entire screen can hide away inside the enclosure, the Line View mode leaves a quarter of it visible for tasks like music playback. Powered by the α9 Gen 2 processor with deep learning AI, it supports Dolby Vision with automatic picture adjustment, has Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa built-in, and will also support Apple AirPlay 2 and HomeKit when it arrives in stores later this year.

So if you're a gamer and just purchased a 4K TV, then you'll want to think about upgrading your current gaming console . A mid-generation update of the already-popular PS4 console comes the PS4 Pro ($399.00), it has an upgraded CPU and GPU to let it support both 4K and HDR games. Most current PS4 titles will be able to upgrade to 4K via a simple patch, while newer titles will be developed to take full advantage of the new hardware. It also has a 1TB hard drive standard, will have 4K-compatible apps for services like Netflix and YouTube, and will enable better graphics for the upcoming PlayStation VR, as well. Coming in November.
