Hey look, it's actual smart use of streaming video tech for a game.
Though I wonder if you can use your home computer to run the game, or they run a client for you? It's pretty low-res, so I guess they could run multiple instances on single machines even, though they'd probably charge an extra monthly fee if they're running the clients.

Blizz said on many occasions they wouldnt port WoW to consoles because of limited control, they wont port it to this in a million years.

it's not a port..
This has been possible for a while, I know a guy that kludged something up on his DS to play TF2 on his PC, DS essentially recieves very low-quality images, though he said he gets like 1fps if he's lucky. Good enough for a pub engy!

I had a friend that would do something similar with Eve, he would use a wirless PDA to remote desktop into his PC, set some commands for mining, then log out of his PDA, come back every few hour or two to check on it...
