This white paper examines how mobile network conditions affect user experience and interactivity in cloud gaming over mobile networks. It analyzes emerging cloud gaming paradigms from a mobile network perspective, detailing key dimensions such as latency, jitter, packet loss, and streaming performance across different gaming genres. The study highlights how network behavior directly impacts perceived gameplay quality, identifying jitter and packet loss as critical factors influencing video quality and responsiveness. The findings show that large jitter spikes are more damaging than frequent small ones, and that noticeable degradation in gaming experience typically occurs only at high packet loss levels. These insights help operators better understand and optimize networks to support high-q
