Games industry sources have been talking to Kotaku about the development of Google's Yeti project plans over recent months. Chitter-chatter about the project has intensified recently with meetings at the GDC in March, then at the E3 in June leaking morsels of tantalising information.

HEXUS first reported upon the Google Yeti games streaming project back in Feb this year. Those initial reports were of Google testing a service which it envisioned to be 'the Netflix of games', going up against the likes of Nvidia GeForce Now and PlayStation Now. However insiders said the existing Chromecast hardware wasn't quite up to scratch for this purpose.
