If you are all hyped about cloud computing as it related to next gen consoles (particularly the XBOX ONE), can you explain exactly WHAT cloud computing is, and why it matters? Do you see it as some sort of "future" mainly? And can you explain why it matters? I want this clarified and myself correct. What I am seeing is individuals who are hyped are mainly Microsoft partisans who have swallowed a buzzword Microsoft put out there, and it bothers me. I seriously want to be shown I am wrong here, and there is more to cloud computing than ease of administering dedicated servers, and ability to scale in a hurry. In short, it isn't of benefit to me as a gamer, but to guys running servers.
Again, please show me it is more than just some corporate kool-aid being served here and people swallowing it and hyped, because their console maker of choice needs to be defended.
And I know I am risking getting a warning for this thread, but I am not sure the way to express my concerns here. In short, this IS a call on my part to show me it isn't just hype. And I would like to see some posts going into why it matters, not just saying stuff like "Drivatar" or something that is lacking in details.
