https://myicobox.com/icotokens/review-of-playkey-ico.html found nice short review.
Can anyone explain to me why experts believe the future of gaming is in the cloud? Thank you
YOu wont need to get expensive hardware to play games. Even in the west i think a lot more people would play games if they dont need to get hardware. Imagine all the poorer countries where
they cant afford the hardware, so are excluded from better games
The problem will be the latence, hard to know how they'll correct this in the future.
I know gamers that still use PS/2 keyboards over usb or wireless because they have few ms less input lag.
the problem will be corrected with access to faster internet, which will happen sooner or later.
The internet latency will never be 0 as long as it is limited by the speed of light. Even a fiber-optic connection has latency greater than 0.
That table shows the theoretical limits.
Don't forget to add the latency converting electronic signals to light and vice versa.
You will need to find a way to keep the connection distributed and close to your home. But that can all be done with smart algorithms

You are right, it's inevitable really, and when you look at the bandwidth growth lately, it's is not even far away.
This project is definitely a winner. I hope everything would be achieved in time after ICO. I am a bit impatient to see the working product.
Kind regards,
Kind regards,
There is already some video of game played on playkey and its really nice. I’m really impatient to try the platform, I think a lot of player will use playkey, be able to play at your game everywhere with internet connection is really a great features.

So investing in cloud systems is also a good idea?
This idea is not new. A lot companies already tried cloud gaming ... and in the end, all had to close their service, because it wasn't profitable.

What are some of the examples of previous cloud gaming? I'm honestly not familiar with them.
I think the most famous was OnLive (I think it was also one of the first). In the end, it failed because it just wasn't profitable. I am not sure, but I think the service was bought by Sony and is now basically Playstation Now. After that there were several tries. I tested one a few months back, don't know the name anymore. Their concept was, that you can play all your Steam games, which was nice. The setup for that was pretty easy, just activate some remote stream option (something like that) and log into your steam account on the remote machine, which was my main concern, because you have to enter your steam account to a cloud pc. It worked OK-ish.

I feel like its time for some internet scaling debates! Can we fork the internet?
I never thought about using ps/2 keyboards for less lag , funny what competitive people look at to get an edge
So basically you'll pay for these tokens to run your games on a higher performance. But long-term, surely it would be more beneficial in terms of price just to buy the GPUs yourself?
It is like buying a car or using a "car sharing" service. We believe that shared economy model is the future, cause it brings huge benefits for end users as saving money and usage flexibility with "pay as you use it" business model.
"pay as you use it" is better than the subscription model

I saw that games on playkey.net are available through Steam, Uplay. Do you have any licenses or partnership with these firms to provide such a service? So how can you have one licensed copy of the game, and it is launched for online access for many players? Is it legal, if it is so? Games are only available for the computer, since the client is only under windows. What are the plans for expanding the supported platforms?

The minimum contribution amount is 60 ETH (~$17 000)
Yes, minimum amount for pre-sale is really big. May be you reduce amount in few times?
Which bonuses on pre-sale?
25% - 35%.
If they really deliver this then no more hardware upgrades. Just use playkey for gaming.
Why "if"? They have got a working platform with 2,5M customers, look at: https://playkey.net/ and try demo games for free.
I saw it, couldn't try it, currently on my work computer.
I put an if because still it is beyond my imagination. I am thinking that there should be a catch. But it looks there is nothing.
I think their ico won't be long with that project, maybe don't long a day before the hard cap achieved. If only presale hasn't 60eth minimum limit

The interface does not need to be fast, it needs to be responsive, at best you get to have 50ms over optic, which is horrendous when it comes to key presses.
