It would still be the same amount of data at the endpoint, regardless of where they’re stored. It just costs the ISPs more for upstream bandwidth because it’s not cached in their data center.

Though a company with Sony’s reach might be able to convince ISPs to put gaming machines in the same place.

But as for the stream itself, it’s just h265 encoded video, not really different from any other video.

It's not the same because of fps. You're not playing those games at 24 fps.
