Methods and systems are provided for streaming gameplay to user devices from a cloud gaming system. The cloud gaming system includes a server. The method includes identifying, by the server, a device of a user for playing a game. The method includes identifying, by the server, a bandwidth associated with the device of the user while the user plays the game. The method includes generating, by the server, a video stream to be transmitted to the device. The method further includes dynamically removing, by the server, one or more graphic layers of the video stream before being transmitted to the device.

Methods and systems are provided for fractionalizing non-fungible token (NFT) shares for digital game assets. The method includes generating a digital asset depicting a gaming event associated with a game. The method includes obtaining a non-fungible token (NFT) for the digital asset. The NFT is stored in a block chain with a reference to a storage location of said digital asset. The obtaining of the NFT includes instructions or parameters for fractionalizing said NFT. The fractionalizing of the NFT creates a set of shares of the NFT. The method includes assigning a share the NFT to a user of the online gaming system. The share is exchangeable among a community of users. The method includes tracking use of each of the set of shares of the NFT and applying a value indicator to each share by the online gaming system.

Methods and systems are provided for processing operations of a game to be played via a mobile device is provided. The method includes establishing a connection with the mobile device to play the game. The method includes receiving controller input from the mobile device; the controller input being from the mobile device to perform an action in the game. The method includes determining a correction value required to perform the action. The method includes applying the correction value to the controller input to increase an accuracy of the controller input when performing the action. In this way, when correction values are applied to the controller input from the mobile device of a user playing a game, the accuracy of the control input is increased so that the user can achieve the intended action in the game.

A controller device for interactive gameplay of a video game is provided, including: the controller device being configured to be handheld by a user; at least one motion sensor, said motion sensor generating motion data in response to movement of the controller device when handheld by the user during the interactive gameplay of the video game; a wireless communications device that receives gameplay video over a network from a remotely executing session of the video game; a projector, said projector being integrated with the controller device, said projector configured to project the gameplay video onto a projection surface in a local environment, wherein the projection of the gameplay video is stabilized based on the motion data.

The system is directed towards an interactive events platform. The interactive events platform may discover current in-game events associated with different video games currently available (or active). The platform may further notify a user of the discovered in-game events associated with different video games and facilitate the user joining a particular in-game event. The interactive events platform may also discover and notify the user of future in-game events associated with different video games. In some embodiments, the discovery and notification of any in-game events are based on games currently being played (or registered) with the user.
