OnLive the future of gaming?

I really like the idea of OnLive espically if it allows me to play AAA titles without having to pay $50-$60 for them. IGN made a comment saying they expect Microsoft to announce something similar at E3 which if true could change console gaming forever. In today's struggling economy not many have the money to pay $60 for a game and going to rental store is just a pain so an OnLive Xbox component would make me say the console wars is over Sony is dead and Microsoft will reign supreme over the hardcore gamers like myself of the world. The problem I do see with OnLive is connection problems as well as quea times but we will see E3 is alittle ways off but I can't wait.

Thanks for your opinion.

This may be a spark that leads to the future of gaming, but I don't think that this particular product will last that long. I personally preferr to have my gaming console as an actual peice of hardware I own vs. a service I pay for. If the economy has you in a gaming slump you can buy used games on amazon.com really cheap...even the new ones are marked down a week after release. Also, bandwidth isn't what it should be for the entire gaming community to shift over to this.

Like I said, this may be the start of something, but it will be a while before everyone is on board.

Yeah will say what happens but if Microsoft releases something similar they obviously are heading in a new direction than.
