Sony had their cloud gaming phase back on 2012 when they acquired Gaikai for $380m. Not sure what happened with them, maybe it was before its time.

- lukebitts 7y agoIt's the technology behind Share Play, isn't it?
- maxfurman 7y agoGaikai became PS Now, which streams a selection of PS3 games on demand
- gambiting 7y agoPlayStation Now is still a thing, you can subscribe to play lots of PS3 and PS4 games on it, they run on Sony's servers and are streamed to your local device.
- ascagnel_ 7y agoNot anymore -- while they still offer that feature, it's downplayed in favor of a Netflix-style rotating library of games that are downloaded and run on local hardware.
- javagram 7y agoPS3 games are still only available through streaming though, and PS Now is also available on PC where cloud streaming is the only option supplied.
- WorldMaker 7y agoPlayStation Now still exists.
- robdachshund 7y agoIt doesn't really work. Even with a great connection you will get kicked off of their servers.
