Title: I just realized OnLive is launching in 2 days

Quote from: From the Anti-Chapel

For those of you ill-informed:  In short, OnLive is a streaming video system that was announced last year.  In theory, it allows you to digitally rent today's latest Cryziz-like gamez and have the gaming experience fully rendered on an offsite server.  Again, theoretically, this eliminates the need to keep your own computer fully up-to-date to play PC games at the best settings.  The only thing your own computer actually processes is keyboard/controller input and the (also theoretical) *instant* High Definition video stream of the game you're playing.  OnLive proposes that this is all done with no control delay or video interruption, despite very little of the US's public infrastructure currently having the resources to actually pull off such a feat on any major scale.


yeah it'll bomb.

A singular universal source CPU to connect up to rather then constantly updating your computer hardware and software...sound interesting.
