@zDSpider Well I've been using it since beta and live in america and have always had input delay, But still what you said about it being something with potential isn't untrue per se, but it's just that... something with potential, and it will sadly stay that way till they fix input lag, have it stream in actual 1080p and get some decent publishers to TRULY support it. Still it has it's problems though, you can kiss modding goodbye, there is the chance the game you bought could be pulled from the service. Always require an internet connection to play your games and this last one is speculation but if you read their fine print they say eventually onlive may cost a monthly fee.. So it wouldn't entirely surprise me if it got big enough that they would start charging you a monthly fee on top of having to purchase the games... Which was their plan from the get go but they probably didn't see the popular support they had hoped for.
It's funny that your current posted blog laura is "Speaking Up: Why Female Game Writers Shouldn't Be Ignored" Yet when you post such factitious information it bares the question in mind; yes the satire really hits home. If you want to be heard than actually put some research into your articles. Within five minutes one could have ascertained that Onlive doesn't have a monthly fee and never launched with one, two EA doesn't support the service and Onlive never launched with their games; and not to belaber any longer but think about it, how does posting factitious articles like this help you in that cause?.
Onlive is free.. failed research is failed research. The 10$ subscription is to their optional Playpack Bundle which allows you to play I think currently it's something around 80+ games.. most of which are indie games. Infact I've been around ONlive since beta and although they did plan to launch with a monthly fee they never actually did.. Also to make things even worse, They never launched with EA titles, in fact EA dropped from the service BEFORE it even launched saying there is too much delay and it doesn't work, It's kind of bad when you write an article and post factitious statements regarding it when it's palpable through cursorily researching Onlive. Shows that you obviously didn't put much actual research in to this article Laura Parker.
