OnLive

Yep they might have just killed any chance they had with that service fee. I dont understand what they're thinking about. Noone is going to buy a game they cant access because of some entry fee. That's just asisnine to ask of someone

This will be a bust for a couple of reasons......

1. The USA broadband isn't on the level it needs to be for this service to run smoothly. A good number of the USA don't even have DSL in their area let alone fiber optic lines.

2. The economy is still bad and most people simply can't justify that price per a month, when they can just use gamefly or download FREE demos on the 360 or PS3.

3. Still have a lot of people in the USA with NO PC in their home at all either, especially in the town I live in.

Its a pretty good idea if there was actually a PC game that I want to play(but I cannot due to my computer specs), Unfortunatly there is not. Perhaps I will check it out when Civilization 5 comes out.

Outside of this thread, I've never talked to a single person who has even HEARD of OnLive.

This has flop written all over it.

It sounds like one big headache to be honest. I've always been big on having physical media as far as games are concerned. If I spend $60, I want something to show for it, not access to a stream.

If they havent changed their business plan as far as pricing is concerned people wont bite.

No way im going to pay 15 bucks a month for an online service

Then pay money to buy a game

Then I cannot play that game unless I first pay the 15 bucks a month service fee.

Im not exactly sure how this benefits customers one bit, and no since they havent advertised well, you wont hear about it from other people
