I bet all those gamers who hated on the Power of the Cloud might be eating there hats now.

 

No, not really. At the time, Microsoft's claim was that the "Power of the Cloud" was going to improve the Xbox One's graphics performance by offloading graphics processing to the cloud to augment the Xbox's GPU, in real time.  That claim was and still is total and complete bulls#!t - a smoke and mirrors marketing ploy to try to convince the buying public that the Xbox really wasn't weaker, graphics horsepower wise, to the PS4.

What they are pitching now is similar to PSNow and Google's ProjectStream; a game streaming service that does all the processing in the cloud and just displays the pre-rendered graphics to your screen.
