NVIDIA today announced that NVIDIA GRID™ technology is powering the Playcast cloud gaming service being offered to customers of French fixed and mobile operator Bouygues Telecom. The service is available on TVs for users of Bouygues Telecom's Bbox Sensation set-top box for instant gaming on more than 50 titles.

"NVIDIA and Playcast have delivered a scalable, high-performance cloud-gaming system for our broadband customers," said Franck Abihssira, head of Fixed Services and Content Division, Bouygues Telecom. "Bouygues Telecom is offering innovative gaming services that enable a great experience available to our 1.5 million subscribers." High-performance servers based on NVIDIA GRID cloud gaming technology handle all of the processing of the cloud-gaming service. Playcast software is used to stream content from Bouygues Telecom's data centers.
 
The only time cloud gaming should be mentioned, is when you are playing multi-player, I trust the cloud as much as I trust the Gypsies down the street that pinch your wheels and leave your car on cinder blocks.
