Ken Kutaragi is, 'father' of the PlayStation console, has started a new development effort based on cloud computing. In addition, Sony Computer Entertainment has set up a new company Cyber Ai Entertainment Inc. last month. The company will focus on the latest networking technology to create a cloud computing for entertainment purposes.

As quoted from the Tech Tree, Sunday (15/11/2009), Kutaragi will focus on cloud computing network to serve the entertainment. Most likely this way may be somewhat similar to the Live gaming service that is displayed on the Game Developers Conference 2009 some time ago.
