Damn not living in the US i wanted to see what all the fuss is about | |
Am I the only one that feels kind of shady about this? | |
Aw man... US only...
Ah well, I guess some kind soul will tell us on The Escapist come summer time. | |
Based in the US?!??!?! I was so up for this :( | |
Not one bit. It's like paying a total stranger to keep all of your games at his house, and he lets you borrow them whenever you want to play them. Even Steam lets you download the data to your hard drive. | |
GOD DAMMIT! Was looking forward to testing this :( | |
No, I signed up for the beta regardless, but it does seem a little off. | |
We are non US scum bags. | |
This reminds me of the defunct/failed Phantom console that was talked about back in 2002 by Phantom Entertainment. | |
US only? Damn it...well I'm still signing up for the newsletter. | |
Done and done. Thanks for the heads up about this, Malygris. | |

OnLive Beta Signups Now Being Taken
OnLive, the streaming game system that's getting all the attention at GDC, is now taking applications for its upcoming beta program.
OnLive is a streaming service that provides on-demand videogames to customers without requiring any high-end gaming hardware. It's design to work with run-of-the-mill PCs, including laptops and netbooks, and OnLive also plans to make available a small "MicroConsole" for customers without a computer in the home. The system was unveiled at GDC and has already signed up publishers including EA, Ubisoft and several others.
The beta test isn't running now but is scheduled to begin in the summer of this year. Testers must be at least 18 years old with a broadband-connected PC running Windows XP or Vista, or an Intel-based Mac, and have to live in the U.S. If that sounds like you, put your name in the hat here.
