People seem to forget that Sony got into 'cloud gaming' years ago when they bought Everquest. And it cracks me up that the same one that say it will never work for the Xbox One, talk about how great Gaihkai will be. Which is much more sensitive to latency.
What this shows me, that much like having Bill Gates personally introduce the first Xbox, is that Microsoft is very serious about putting it resources and muscles behind the Xbox One. The dedicated servers, possible per-rendering of light and stuff, will make a great and powerful service.
It is a great long term strategy to provide an excellent service.

It's neat, but Sony basically came out and said that Developers already have access to similar tools on the PS4 if they want to use them in development, they just aren't spinning "THE POWER OF TEH CLOUDZ" like Microsoft. Sony is putting it's focus on Gaikai, a much more ambitious use of "The Cloud" IMO. Also, I really hate the term The Cloud.

well in the case of the cloud/server or whatever word you want to put on it... tools is the smallest issue... the infrastructure is what is relevant here.... and sony doesn't and will never have the infrastructure MS has... gaikai or not and honnestly I'd rather have the spinned cloud marketing BS MS has right here right now ready to rumble than anything gaikai for games I'll have to pay to have a shitty 720p game streamed with bad latency when I can buy most of the games for cheap online with a cheap PS3....
