As much as there is talk of "the cloud", the PS4 is going to offer streaming.

Just this... Tells me that you have no idea what you are talking about ... Cloud Processing is completly different than Streaming... It clearly show that you just want another thread to bash the Xbox One without even understanding what Microsoft have to offer... Not going to waste my time explaining all the advantages.

Cant Gaikai do the same thing? I could be wrong, I just thought Iit had that ability as well

Considering that Sony is labeling Gaikai as "cloud gaming" I think it is fairly close to being the same thing.   The original reason why I mentioned it is that what Sony and Microsoft are doing is done in order to improve the computer power in their games.  The way One does it, it is more client-server in nature, where you split off some of the computing power to the server (aka, Cloud).  Streaming on the other hand, offloads almost all the computing to the server, and turns the console into the equivalent of a dumb terminal, is it is more like a mainframe in nature.  The streaming side has greater room to improve computing in gaming actually.
