I wanted to research deeply about Games on demand after I had discussed with steel x about "game on demands" from another thread few days ago..
I shockly realized that Games on demand is actually BLUE PRINT for nearly future.. the digital distribution of games and cloud based gaming services is NEW X-GEN GAMING! but Will it survive this next generation?
In any event the whole browser/cloud based gaming and things like this I just don’t know about.
Gaikai - they test on steaming pc
Playcast- In europe, they will launch in 2010 (coming soon).
OTOY - coming soon
Onlive - will be launch by this winter and already have the parthership with various game industry:
Video game streaming technology working in any browser with no installs, no plug-ins.

Onlive, Gaikai and others. See, there is already a standard and that is the PC. All on these streaming services still run pc hardware, it might be super powerful.
These services will help bring in new gamers into PC gaming, with a higher install base, more developer interest in the PC platform, etc.
Therefore, Money no longer has to flow back to Microsoft/Sony/Nintendo it will all flow to developers resulting in hopefully better games! And plus they don't have to waste development time tweaking each game for 3-4 different platforms.
