Cloud gaming vs video game consoles

Asked By Greg Charlton 40 points N/A Posted on - 07/08/2012

It was said that Sony already acquired Gaikai, the cloud gaming company. Gaikai makes games that are accessible online through the cloud service. How would this change the whole gaming experience that Sony is well known for? Would this mean that Sony will stop creating those video game consoles and gamers could access games without the need of Sony's game controllers?

Cloud gaming vs video game consoles

Yes what you heard about Sony acquires Gaikai the ultimate Cloud based Game company. The Gaikai is the most trustable online game vender who supports cloud based gaming. Now this Gaming company was acquired by Sony for 380$ Million Dollars which is a huge amount. And from next time Sony will be providing the games online. And they continue to provide their gaming consoles also. All the games cannot be put in online as it will occupy huge space and may not be played online. The consoles will be used in place of that for those which require high end configuration games which can be played only in consoles and PC's.
