Looks like both the companies you mentioned have similar approaches. Reminds me of remote desktop computing. Of course, with all the trouble I have with image quality on my streaming Netflix movies, I can't help but wonder how good the image quality will really be, and how responsive the controls will be. As internet connection speeds continue to go up, this concept could be a game-changer. Either way you look at it, we're going to be seeing a lot more games delivered via a web browser in the next couple years. @Landon, @poopa – Guess it was only a matter of time before cloud-based gaming came along.

I haven't looked into app development for it, but my current tools really only let me develop easily for the iPhone, PCs, and web browsers. Who knows where things will go in the future, though.

I'm a big fan of cutting out the middle man(RIAA, MPAA, Publishers,...) by delivering goods straight to the people and browser based gaming seems like the natural evolution of using online activation to prevent piracy. I hope it doesn't (d)evolve into another way to get into your pockets with micro-transactions or selling it to you for the same price as a boxed copy.
