OnLive

How long until you launch On-Live Dome?

Talking to myself here, but if anyone's interested you can get Amnesia: The Dark Descent for free until midnight Eastern tonight on Onlive. Just head over to the Amnesia game page in the Marketplace and enter the promo code "THANKYOU" in the available field and click “Apply Promo Code” just before purchase.

Fuck, just saw this. I'll run home and try it now.

Anyone have this thing hooked up through wireless? I get 18mbps over my wireless so I'm not too concerned about it, but wondering how well it works vs being hardwired.

I thought I read that the mini console had to be hard wired, Not so?

You can use a wireless bridge.

For its price, this thing is seriously awesome. I have a 28mps connection and I'm connected to the console using a 85mbs PowerLine and it runs as smooth as butter. A framerate stutter here and there, but aside from that, it's unbelievably playable, more so than I ever expected it to be. Anyone with a spare $50 and likes neat technology should do themselves a favor and pick this up with one of OnLive's preorder deals, between that and the PlayPass, I can't recommend it enough.

Also, the Red Faction demo kicks ass. I pretty much hated the last one (for good reason), but had a damn good time for the 30 min they let you play.

What have I been saying, bitches.

OnLive is coming to Android tablets (phones?) this fall and it sounds pretty cool. http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2386388,00.asp

Now that's pretty awesome. Imagine using that on the Xperia Play with the physical controls.

I'm really impressed with the leadership behind OnLive, some really forward thinking dudes.

The last Red Faction was a lot of fun, I haven't read anything good about the new one.
