PC gaming is an incredibly expensive hobby. Before we can even get into how much full-price games will set you back these days, there's the not-so-little matter of having the hardware to play them on. Sure, if you're an indie fiend, you're probably not fussed about having the most up-to-date rig—but, as the memory crisis rages on, even older hardware is seeing an increase in demand. What if you could just sidestep the whole expensive question mark of a gaming desktop and play games via your smart TV?

This is the question and answer proffered by GeForce Now's latest announcement, as Nvidia's game streaming app is now available on Amazon Fire TV devices. So, yes, that does mean you'd still need to potentially drop a chunk of change on a swish new TV (or considerably less on this here cube, or even just a Fire TV Stick) in addition to the subscription fee to GeForce Now. This follows news of GeForce Now making its Linux debut last month.

It's also worth clarifying that GeForce Now only lets you stream games you already own, as it doesn't grant access to Nvidia's own library to stream. Still, have you seen the price of RAM lately? It's hard to deny that this may be a genuinely appealing way to play for all those with an internet connection that can keep up.
