== Better clarification of types ==

There's three separate tables of services, currently entitled "Cloud gaming services (Gaming as a Service (GaaS))", "Game streaming systems" and "P2P gaming services". I presume that this is supposed to correspond with the different types of services listed in the "Types" section. The only problem is that the types of the table don't correspond to the types listed. Most notably, the phrase "Game Streaming" only appears in the table title, and not anywhere else. To add to the confusion, the types sections seems to keep using different distinctions and terminology, and it isn't clear if these are different ways of referring to the same thing, or additional (mutually exclusive) subcategories, or an independent axis of classification. Some more organization of the different types (and more consistent use of terminology) would make things clearer. -- [[Special:Contributions/129.59.122.107|129.59.122.107]] ([[User talk:129.59.122.107|talk]]) 14:07, 28 June 2019 (UTC)

Merge with Gaming on demand

I propose that this article be merged with Gaming on demand. spiritslayer (talk) 17:43, 3 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I think gaming on demand should be merged here, as this is clearly the better article. Is there even any information on the other one that isn't already on this one and expanded upon here? SilverserenC 22:12, 3 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

What is "Cloud Gaming?" 24.128.49.24 (talk) 03:35, 28 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

@24.128.49.24: Yes, the article could do a better job of explaining it. — Frεcklεfσσt | Talk 13:06, 28 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

a few thoughts on this article. "gaming on demand" is ultra vague and sounds a lot... a lot a lot like microsofts "games on demand". infact, the way its explained, its not any different from something like steam, except that you can play as it loads... and other games, like world of warcraft for instance, have offered services like this for years. so it needs a name to reflect what it actualy does... unless you have a hilarious reference that "gaming on demand" has been ordained by the big 4.

the other thing, offsite computers/servers/whatever that run the game/software/whatever that just take input and output video(or maybe even vibration ques...) via wifi/shreknet/whatever... that's just remote computing. a topic that has its own small page. i think i get that this is partly about the remarketing phenomena of "the almighty cloud"... but how about some links to related pages. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2602:306:836A:390:C817:183:4AA1:A97F (talk) 15:35, 27 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Better clarification of types

There's three separate tables of services, currently entitled "Cloud gaming services (Gaming as a Service (GaaS))", "Game streaming systems" and "P2P gaming services". I presume that this is supposed to correspond with the different types of services listed in the "Types" section. The only problem is that the types of the table don't correspond to the types listed. Most notably, the phrase "Game Streaming" only appears in the table title, and not anywhere else. To add to the confusion, the types sections seems to keep using different distinctions and terminology, and it isn't clear if these are different ways of referring to the same thing, or additional (mutually exclusive) subcategories, or an independent axis of classification. Some more organization of the different types (and more consistent use of terminology) would make things clearer. -- 129.59.122.107 (talk) 14:07, 28 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
