Definition from What Games Are:
Since 2009 a couple of services (primarily OnLive and Gaikai) have launched which provide streamed games to players either through a dedicated console device or a PC client. The games are hosted and run on a network of cloud servers, unlike a downloaded game, so there is no need for installation of software or costly hardware.
