SONY: "We have just purchased Gaikai and now have a pathway into the world of digital streaming for Video games all done through the Cloud".

Microsoft: "We have nothing to show anyone, but we did it first, we had the digital streaming over the Cloud first. Like I said, we can't prove it, but I sit here today and say that Sony is playing catch up to us right now in this field."


I'll just file this one away under "Damage Control".

Means nothing without any sort of tangible proof displaying what they are claiming.

Where is this streaming gaming content across multiple devices?

 

This bogus PR can in no way be take as fact when as of this moment it truly is nothing more than empty words, regardless of whether or not the do other things in the Cloud scene because hey guess what, SONY does stuff in the Cloud scene as well.

No one said sony doesn't. All i am saying is that MS does more in the cloud and has a better infrastrucure for it. Hence why sony would be catching up. And again before they bought gaikai sony did not stream games. So they used gaikai to catch up. now they can do that. but could not before.
