So what's the story, will the PS4 offer dedicated servers for Ghosts? If not (which I can't imagine is the case) then that would be a HUGE blow to Sony. It seems like this news would qualify as some sort of megaton, no? I'm just surprised that this thread has so few responses for something potentially so big. What am I missing here?

Because we are all assuming it will have dedicated servers on PC and PS4 as well.  In fact I swear they already said they will on PC somewhere...

On PC probably, since that is Windows/Microsoft and can use the same cloud/server tech pretty easily.

On PS4 I wouldn't be surprised if games are still stuck using P2P unless they decide to pay for servers on maybe a per game basis or make the publishers fork it up for servers.  Gaikai won't be ready till 2014 and I don't think Sony has ever once mentioned having dedicated servers as part of it or any other offering.

As a competitive multiplayer person, if Sony does not do dedicated servers, they will lose lots of hardcore gamers after a while.
