As the article implies, it's a response to Sony buying Gaikai in order to use it's streaming technologies on the PS4. Microsoft also mentioned that this is a prototype currently. I think a software juggernaut like Microsoft should be able to do this better than Sony no?

What are your thoughts?

Microsoft is building its own cloud gaming service. Company officials demonstrated a prototype of the service during an internal company meeting today. Sources familiar with the meeting revealed to The Verge that Microsoft demonstrated Halo 4 running on a Windows Phone and PC, both streaming the game from the cloud. We're told that the concept service runs smoothly on both devices, and that Microsoft has managed to reduce the latency on a Lumia 520 to just 45ms.

Well I'm highly intrigued, but I will need to see it for myself. Its likely a few years before the general public sees anything concrete.
