One of the more bits of interesting news flying around the internet right now is the fact that Sony is investing in cloud game streaming and is doing so with the now confirmed purchase of cloud game streaming service Gaikai for a reported $380 million, a bit less than the rumored $500 million Gaikai was apparently looking for a week and a half ago.

Back during the GTC 2012 conference where nVidia dropped the news about their upcoming cloud gaming platform GeForce Grid, there was plenty of other gaming news of the cloud variety during the nVidia keynote as well including a preview of the PC-based multiplayer FPS game Hawken running on an Asus Transformer Prime thanks to cloud gaming service Gaikai.
OnLive has been pretty successful when it comes to their mobile ambitions with their release of their service onto Android devices. Other services similar to OnLive must be taking notice as Gaikai is now jumping into the mobile sphere and having their client integrated into the upcoming WikiPad Android tablet.
