Well... They are trying to make the cloud work on x1, windows and windows phone fronts and unlike the cell, the cloud is useful and needed and is technically the "way of the future". So I think they will do fine... Once the price of the x1 goes down, I think it will really start selling and the cloud is just a bonus

You don't think the PS3's main CPU is useful?  What does it make games run with, fairy dust?

X1 cloud isn't even anything special.  You think that games targetting PS4 don't use cloud servers too?  Maybe their own, maybe Amazon AWS, Google App Engine.  PS4 games could even use Microsoft's cloud if they want to.  The only thing special is that MS pays for X1 cloud with your XBox Live money, and developers probably don't get a choice to use other services if they want to.  Woot.

All I was saying was that Sony could have just went with a standard cpu like on the 360 and it wouldn't have made much of a difference and the cell is/was not being widely used by anyone vs Microsoft's cloud technology is being integrated onto Windows, Windows Phone, Windows Server, Enterprises and obviously the Xbox One so the cloud is much more needed than the cell ever was.. As of right now, the cloud is useless for the x1 but in the future as Microsoft further expands its cloud, it has much more potentical to be useful than the cell ever was...

And its not about the fact that Sony can do it with the ps4 too, its about the fact that Microsoft has more experience with the cloud than Sony and they are taking it much more seriously than Sony is... Idk for sure if it will make any difference in the future but it has a greater potentical to
