Weird that they don't mention Gaikai... I think that's going to be the real edge for the PS4.
Of course it depends on a fictional and amazing future network, but considering all relevant information I think that it will most likely be the winning edge for the PS4 in the next decade.
Sony is going to fucking print money when they have a subscription for a streaming gaming service.
- Yhippa 14y agoI'm real disappointed that these consoles are still fighting an arms race. I was hoping to these boxen would really take to the cloud and finally figure out streaming but I guess we're just not there yet.
- Lewisham 14y agoIt's simply not feasible for a majority of countries and their broadband. Also, you would need to design games with lag in mind, otherwise there's a noticeable lag, even at 40 or so ms. You'd need the client to be doing some feedback work.
- jsnell 14y agoWhy? It seems like a completely ridiculous idea (latency-sensitive, incredible waste of bandwidth). I honestly can't figure out what the purported benefit is.

- wmf 14y agoThe rumored PS4 specs are total overkill for Gaikai. I could imagine Sony using Gaikai for game demos and PS2/3 backwards compatibility, but not "mainstream" gaming.
