I do not think you are really looking for a real explanation but if you really want to educate yourself; you can use Bing (or Google I guess looking at your post history and the "love" you have for Microsoft) and look at what Microsoft Azure / Amazon S3 or even Google Computing (in preview). Nothing to do with Gaikai or anything like that.

Computing instances and VCPUs is all about what Microsoft is envisioning, nothing remotely close to what Gaikai or Online are... And YES, computing instances can obviously act as a dedicated servers so it will be mostly used by for that as it does not requires any special codes or synchronization patterns in the games...

This thread will just be another bashing fest anyway, good job we did not have enough of these lately!

The issue is it wont make any diff right now, cloud is 10 years away, Sony and almost every compnay knows this. Nothing is stopping sony from adding servers for the cloud as needed as it grows. Right now it is typical MS bs.

 

No one said anything about gaikai in this thread........MS didn't invent cloud computing,m nor are they the only ones using it, SOny is already going that way and they have said it is the future, FUTURE being the key word. For gaming right now, it is not going to do muchn of anything.

You posting your oppinion about Microsoft PR bullshit a good amount of time in this thread. We got it the first time... And just stop your hate now; nobody said Microsoft invented "cloud computing", you keep repeating this over and over.

You are right about one thing tho, nothing is preventing game dev. to use Azure/Amazon to do the same on PS4 (and pay for it as it does not come FREE for every Ps4 games like on the Xbox One)... But no, Sony do not have any datacenter able to provide that kind of computing power to million of consoles like Microsoft... You are just plain wrong about that... And the cost to developp such infratructure is way behond what Sony would be willing to do for the PS4. It took 10 years for Microsoft and Amazon to put that up; even you believe Sony is an half-god; this cannot be magicaly done :)
