PC gaming is gonna get SLAUGHTERED by onlive. Do u agree?



PLAYSTATION®3 is the future.....NOW.......B_E_L_I_E_V_E

 

Consoles owned: Game Cube, Gameboy Color, Gameboy Advance, Nintendo DS, PSP, PS1, PS2, PS3.

My prediction: NATAL WILL NOT help 360 sales. Maybe a 50-100k boost week 1, then a 30-70 k boost week 2, and back to the norm again after 3-5 weeks.

No... having to upgrade your PC to play every new game to its full potential will get slaughtered by OnLive. PC Gaming will be AIDED by this greatly.



Could I trouble you for some maple syrup to go with the plate of roffles you just served up?

Nope, Onlive won't support mods.

I have been thinking this for many years. Soon computers will basically be onlive boxes and we will just have servers to run everything for us. Microsoft and Google and others are already taking the steps to be ready for it. As soon as Broadband becomes more available and much faster. Onlive/Remote servers are the future much like Digital Distribution is the future of media

 



Long Live SHIO!

even with onlive helping regular people they would never experience the full game's glory without a better PC.



PC gaming is better than console gaming. Always.     We are Anonymous, We are Legion    Kick-ass interview   Great Flash Series Here    Anime Ratings     Make and Play Please

The OnLive idea is stupid. They bring an unneccessary extra step by transfering all the data through the internet from a remote PC instead of the one on your desktop, plus the compression process of the movie lol. Lag would be insane and it will look like crap, in addition to the service being too expensive etc.

In 20 years we could have something similar, although I doubt it, but today it's impossible.

This. One real-world implementation in an average home and I'll change my mind, but it won't work outside their marketing suite.
