Yep. Absolutely! The success of the such platforms is definitely hinged on good internet access. Google can have very high end machines in their data center, but it wouldn't matter if a player has a poor internet connection. It is to be seen how they might solve that problem too someday. They are sort of in their infancy right now and I think they'll tackle that problem at some point. I also think there are a few avenues to explore for that. Maybe use a custom hardware on the client side that can help with that problem. I do think they are off to a good start, though.

I can't agree more.
