This looks very interesting:

While everyone keeps harping on about the lack of backwards compatibility, it obviously wouldn't happen on the console itself due to the new architecture. This looks like a promising idea.

 

Yet another reason to go for the PS4...:) 

PC Specs: i7 4770k @ 4.3Ghz 1.165v, Corsair H100i + 2x SP120 PE in Pull, Asus ROG Maximus VII Hero, 8GB Kingston Hyper-X Genesis 1600mhz, X-fire Sapphire HD7950 3GB OC Dual X Edition, Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium - Fatal1ty, 60GB OCZ Agility 3, 120GB OCZ Agility 3, 480GB Seagate 600 Series, 1TB WD Caviar Black, Corsair TX850, CM Storm Trooper, Win 7 Pro. Peripherals: Microsoft Sidewinder X6 Keyboard, Logitech G700S Mouse, Sennheiser G4ME ONE Headset, Logitech Z-5500 5.1 Speakers. Phone: HTC One M8.

Depending on the number of PS3 titles available on launch through streaming, I'll definitely buy the PS4. Also need to factor in the time-frame needed for it to be released in Canada. I read another article about the selection of games expanding within the first months of Gaikai's release.

 

IMO, if it works, it's a great solution for backward compatibility across all of their systems. Means I won't need to buy used PS2/3's to enjoy those games.
