I just read this article about "On Live" heres the site

http://pc.ign.com/articles/965/965535p1.html

Sounds like it could really change gaming. Might end console games and this will be the new generation of getting games, just streaming

I don't see it working. Imagine the number of server they would need to stream 10 000 copies of Crysis at the same time+the bandwidth. I am generous when I say 10000. Anyway, on my side I could not even use it. My bandwidth is capped at 30gb (down and upload)

It wouldn't work well. Imagine playing against people who are using this in Multiplayer... the excuse of "im lagging" might ACTUALLY be valid. And I might rage so hard it would make me shoot bullets from my eyes.

Yeah now after having an hour of sitting at work reading your guys messages and thinking about it. It sounds too good to be true.

What tricked me was this line in the article

"OnLive has worked diligently to overcome lag issues"

but yea you guys are right

im gonna take my breakn curl up in a ball at the corner and sulk in lost hope
