    Wow I think that's a great idea. It seems as though nothing can go wrong with this. I'm not sure if it will make gaming consoles like the PS3 obsolete. But if it's successful, I think it will eventually.

    Im keeping my hopes up for this. My computer has hard enough troubles running games like SW Battlefront II and DMC3. With this I could totally enjoy all those new games coming out, especially since my connection is more than capable of running this in HD on my TV. The brag clips and spectator features sound pretty awesome too.

    seems like a cool thing. i find the monthly subscription cost to be a turn off but i'm sure there are plenty of people willing to pay. also find the fact that you HAVE to play online a little iffy, but it depends on what the requirements of the internet connection to be. has a lot of potential and it was an interesting read.

    Argh you beat me to the thread post. I saw the same thing on yahoo yesterday, actually XD. It looks like it would be amazing to try out myself. I think it has the potential to be the 4th biggest system out there. Oh, and it also works on your t.v., you just need to plug it in.

    Picture: The controller looks like a cross between a ps3 and 360 controller. I like the whole "L I V E" thing on the buttons.

    And then PC gaming went the way of the dinosaur.

    Isn't it possible the L.I.V.E stands for OnLive and not XBL? >>

    You pointed out the Live on the face buttons like it was meant to connect it to Microsoft...

    I just said the controller looked like a mix between the ps3 and 360.

    What I meant when I stated I liked the whole Live thing was that I liked how it was something different than the typical letters or symbols you see on playstation, xbox and nintendo controllers.
