Following the revelation of the OnLive service,
GameDaily has a conversation with Acclaim's Dave Perry, who describes
ambitions for Gaikai, a similar cloud computing-based service, admitting the
unveiling of OnLive has "forced his hand" into revealing these plans. The
description is of a very similar service to run games on the server end,
allowing high-end gaming on lower-spec systems, and one of the advantages of
such a system he stresses is its ability to curtail the impact of those darned
used-game sales. A timeframe for launch is not offered, but Dave says they
already have World of Warcraft and EVE Online running,
interestingly specifying MMOGs, a segment that doesn't have much in the way of a
used-game market.
