Gaikai CEO says streaming PC game service will launch in about 60 days




While the OnLive streaming PC game service has been on and, well, live for much of the summer one of its biggest rivals is prepping for its own launch. The Alistdaily.com web site reports claims from Gaikai's CEO Dave Perry that its service will launch in about 60 days.

As we have reported before the "launch" of Gaikai will actually use free game demos with the full game streaming to be made available in 2011. OnLive, however is already streaming a number of full games to its customers. Perry, however, slammed OnLive, claiming that its system of three service centers handling the entire US is "impossible". Perry said Gaikai will launch with 15 servers with plans to increase the amount to 50 servers.
