summary
Cloud gaming claims: Playcast streams full-console titles to TVs while playstation now streams catalog titles across devices. Big-money signals: Microsoft pays $2.5B for Minecraft, Amazon spends about $1B on a streaming startup, and Destiny earns ~$500M in week one. Xbox Live reaches roughly 50M users. Mobile dominates usage and revenue, lets six-person teams build massive hits, and becomes a distribution and brand-extension channel for console franchises; consoles shift from discs to persistent, cloud‑connected services.
