OnLive

[Brand X]

When I'm paying nearly nothing for the games, not having them in 10 years doesn't really effect me at all, and by that time I should be able to get the games for pennies. Plus the convenience and price outweigh the fact that I don't have the physical media in my hands.

Also, screw $5 Fridays today, I already have Darksiders

Beefy: I like to think of Onlive as an extended rental service. I generally only play games on it that I am interested in but not enough to buy on the PS360, and they run ridiculous specials often enough to only spend $5-10 per game, even on fairly new stuff.

Onlive is awesome. It is not for hoarders.

PlayPack subscribers now get 30% off of EVERYTHING on the service, including sales, microconsoles, preorders, etc. http://onlivefans.com/news/best-deal...any-item/1988/

So $5 fridays are now essentially $3.50 fridays for subscribers, and you can pre-order Saints Row the Third for $35 and get the free DLC and another free game or MicroConsole.

The deals on this service are crazy, they just need MOAR GAMES. Time to go grab Darksiders.

Playback subscribed, Saint's Row pre ordered, Micro Console ordered (sort of).
I went through the checkout for the console and after I applied the promo code the page went blank and hung there.
I already shot off an email.

Support has been pretty good with them from what I've read.

Support got back to me. Their advice was Try Again. I tried a million times. Same thing every time.
Then I disabled Ghostery in my browser and it worked fine.

Cloud gaming is a cool idea, but I like to have physical media in my hand. It can be resold if I get stuck/sick of it, and in 10 years when Onlive is out of business and I still want to play the games, I won't be fucked for things I already payed for.

Your parents wish you would stop filling their house with you physical media, especially Big Wet Asses 15 with Gianna Michaels.

Support refunded my $15 for Saints Row since I pre-ordered it like an hour before the 30% off deal went up.

Has anyone else been having issues with their controller constantly disconnecting from the microconsole?
