the big difference is this, gaikai is a completely separate platform than the ps4.
gaikai will work for (let's say) 30% of the market. that 30% of the market can use the gaikai service and the other 70% can choose to ignore that service and use what works for them which is to buy discs and process everything locally.
the thing with cloud processing is (like gaikai) it has to be handeled as a seperate service. MS cannot integrate it into their xbox one platform in any meaningful way. the games have to be playable for that 70% of the market that cannot or will not use the cloud assist. that means for the 30% of the market that may want to use it,.. it cannot be used in any meaningful way.
