Gaikai ready to go says Perry
Cloud service to go live in December
Dave Perry has said that his new game cloud service Gaikai is all finished and ready to go.
Perry told VG247 in an interview at the GDC Online in Austin that they'd promised to have the service ready by the end of September and it is. He added that the service will launch some time on December with no need for beta testing or anything of that kind.
"We said wed be done by the end of September, and we are," Perry began. "We're feature complete. You see it running from Dallas. That's the experience that people are gonna have. So the problem is we have not had the mass market real gamers come and play this. We've had publishers playing, but we havent had real gamers."
He went on: "The minute that announcement comes out of who we're gonna partner with, we'll start sending out invites immediately. And we're gonna do that for 60 days. So we are 60 days from the start of those invites to launch. So that's means, at some point in December probably mid-December we will be live. There will be no 'youre in a beta.' It'll just be 'go ahead and play.'"
