I'm not sure if anyone is aware of this, but Sony said that they have an alternative to the PS4s inability to run PS3 games, they said that by using Gakai digital PS3 games can run on the PS4 without any native abilities on the system, so pretty much cloud.
Only thing is, internet connection could affect the performance of any game and it also makes a game that was offline, online all the time. Now, they haven't really explained this in great detail, and they haven't mentioned any games like Dust or any other digital PS3 game with an online mode, but from Sony has said, it sounds like Dust on PS4 could be a possibility. |

Gaikai and all services that "stream" games are a joke. If you want to see how bad it is, go use OnLive. Basically the same thing.
I forgot that thing even existed, hows it doing?
On paper the idea sounds pretty solid, I'm pretty sure Sony could make it work for single player games, but I don't think online games would hold too well on a "Cloud" . |

Right now there is a f2p ailing game on an old platform with a waning competition - all big developers are looking at PS4 as a future podium. While that's the case, Dust can remain relevant on the 'second league' older platform - PS3.
If CCP made Dust for PS 4, it would be an obviously and grossly underperforming game compared to everything else that will be avaliable - that would be terrible for the game's image which is already lackluster. Now, on the other hand, I don't think Sony is too excited to welcom Dust to PS4 with arms wide open, and again for the same reason - showcasing weak games on release will make PS 4 seem like a second rate console.
C'mon now, no need to be such a downer, it's not like there's anything else to talk about on the forums lately, let people day dream. |

On Live? last I heard Dead as a Doornail. CEO Bailed.
Real?!
Sad to hear, it potential, but it seemed like one of those ideas that was ahead of it's time, it might have fared better if it was launched around this time, since everyone is now getting on the "Cloudgaming-train" . Hopefully MS and Sony don't drop the idea like some cheap gimmick, Sony has an annoying tendency to drop support on things that don't work out immediately. |
