After a failed Sony deal it seems that the company wants to find another partner

Gaikai, one of the leading cloud gaming companies in the world, is apparently looking for a buyer, as it has already hired brokers to estimate its value at over $500 million (€399 million).

Cloud gaming is set to become the future of the industry, at least according to quite a few big companies, so firms like OnLive and Gaikai are leading the way thanks to impressive systems and technologies.

After a report that said Sony was close to announcing a partnership with Gaikai at E3 2012, it seems that the cloud gaming company wants to be purchased as soon as possible, at least according to CNN Money.

The website claims brokers have already estimated the company at over $500 million and it seems that executives are now contacting potential buyers ahead of an official announcement.

Sadly, Gaikai has one big problem, as a variety of companies have invested in it, so it will be difficult to get acceptance from all of them once a buyer is found.

As of yet, Gaikai has declined to talk about this report.
