Had Onlive, and well it works; it really works. And if that works, this other somehow deferred stuff should also work. What I hate about the cloud is this somehow forced dependency on the service. Once you take that single step/ invest it will be pretty had to cancel your allegiance to the service. I'm not a fan of the idea since I like collecting, but I really see this working on the technical level. On another level, the consumer should decide if this is ok or not. Even then, the mass could be educated in the wrong direction.

What Sony is looking to offer is like OnLive with Gakai.  What Microsoft is doing is far more like virtualized client-server, with computing split between the servers and the ONE.
