OnLive: Streaming quality games to your computer
OnLive is a streaming cloud gaming service that allows you to play the latest games through OnLive's client over a wired or wireless internet connection. It is a great tool for gamers who don't have the latest and greatest hardware in their computers. Setup is easy, and in a few minutes, you can have access to OnLive's library of games. Some games offer free timed trials and different access versions for rental or purchase.
OnLive games are played through a client, so all the work is performed by OnLive's servers and the game is streamed to your computer. The quality of the streaming game varies based on the internet connection and the native resolution of your monitor. Controls can be performed using a connected gamepad or game-specific keyboard controls.
One of the advantages of OnLive is that there is no noticeable lag during gameplay. Additionally, you can access your OnLive account and play games on multiple computers. Overall, OnLive is a great option for gamers who want to play games anywhere.
