Forums - Gaming - Onlive is it out now ? SMG and Halo on PS3 Phat ?

I just looked at the homepage and they say coming soon Winter 2009 thats now. So where is it ? Does it really work ? I just cant believe it. Is here someone who is going to buy it ? Or is here someone who has tested it ? I am really interested in this thing because if it works it could be really my new platform of choice and i would never be forced again to buy a new PC or Console.

 

As I read the first sentences of the Homepage I noticed that it would be possible without a problem to play any game on your Phat PS3 ( it cant work on the 360 or Wii though). 

It works with the box and a browser so it would work on the Linux Browser. Not on the original PS3 browser I think. But that would mean you can play every game on the PS3 even Xbox 360 games or Wii games. 

But if its launching in the next 2 weeks why there is no hype no media no infos no nothing ?

February ? Why does they say: "Coming soon Winter 2009"

@ghazi

What do you mean credit card= fail ?

@ gamelover

I believe too it will never work but they seem so confident and they release that soon so it makes me a bit insecure about that even if I think its impossible because everyone has a latency and the latency for this to work 2 times (your information to the server the server is processing it and then back to you) has to be almost non existend to work and I cant magine that this will really work.



It won't have Wii60 games, that would be breach of copyright.

No they want to make high end graphics available on every Computer forever. So they update there servers and you can play always the latested games without even buying them you just have to pay your monthly fee and can play every game you want even on a weak PC so you will be able to play crysis with ultra high mode on a 500mhz PC. So i just read they will make it available just on MAC OS X and Windows. So no PS3. But You could use a Netbook or even smaller gadgets if they have Windows XP on it.


Or you can play it with just the box so you dont need even a PC. Sounds like Science Fiction.

The main difference between science fiction and reality is time.
