No.

Milo was a proof of concept about possibly cool stuff working with an actual product (kinect).

This 35 light years space sim is a proof of concept about possibly cool stuff working with an actual product (cloud).

Don't tell me you are buying into the hype twice?

Space sim with Xbox One = proof of concept

Games utilizing cloud computing  = true since the 1990s

Microsoft Azure being one the best cloud services available = true

Xbox One offering free Azure based cloud computing for all Xbox one devs = fact

Devs utilizing cloud computing on Xbox one in games being released this year = fact

I am not sure what hype there is to buy. 

So it only gets worse. If games have been utilizing cloud computing since the freaking 90's, but we as gamers evidently don't feel any important results from it, then what else is this Microsoft cloud computing talk than empty marketing words without any tangible effect on the ground?
