wow global average mbps is VERY low
i doubt you could stream games at a good resolution with anything below 15

Cloud game computing and cloud game streaming are not the same thing.

gaikai uses game streaming doesnt it? or does it use cloud game computing too?

Game streaming only. There are very few platforms that do cloud computing. Microsoft Azure and AmazonS3 are pretty much the only viable players.

iCloud for example uses Azure. OnLive uses Amazon S3. I am pretty sure Gaikai uses one or the other and just has their own streaming technology like OnLive. I could be wrong about specifics as I don't know much about Gaikai...
