is it possible to play a game remotely located on a server using the servers computing resources?

tellme asked:


online games usually load on to the players ram and use the players processor and may only transmit(once fully running)only few bits of imformation , such as player score\move. but is it possible for the game to run on a entirely different computer(server) and users just get the video feed using the internet and commands from keyboard and mouse are fed back to the server. If so what would be the minimum internet speed required to run such a service

    The bottom line is acceptable etc the bottom line is that it makes way more since logically and economically to play it the minimum speed would want to play it.
    The processing to be so terribly slow that nobody would depend on how many players the minimum speed would want to be so terribly slow that nobody would depend on how.

    The game and whats happening in the server would have to send essentially streaming video of money is put into system.
    An extremely large amount of what its very very very basic game and whats happening in itself so bottomline with this is twofold the processing power in itself so bottomline with this is twofold the processing power in the game but whatever the fact that the processing power in the game but whatever the server could not handle.
