I don't live in a big city, or near a big city, so streaming games will never be a viable option for me. Despite having fiber, my ping to any Google or AWS datacenter is never under 50ms. Online game pings (where it's actual TCP traffic with compute) tend more towards 100ms.

For most games, 100ms latency between action and response is simply not acceptable. Even games like Rocksmith, Guitar Hero, and Crypt of the Necrodancer will offer calibration to overcome mere 10ms delays between the controller and the AV equipment.
