What is the point in owning a console or a gaming pc when you can play on the cloud? Yes right now the market is not ready for it. But 10 years down the road why not? I have used onlive and gaikai for a while now. Onlive is a bit laggy and the picture can be a bit blurry. But gaikai runs so smooth on my pc it feels like im playing an online game. very little lag on my pc maybe because their data centre is closer.

I feel the future of gaming will be like on demand tv. every company will have their own channel you can play games on for a fee. I love hard copies but this looks like its the future to me.
