Onlive’s Potential
I would like to list a few points that I believe will make the new video game system Onlive a success:
Ease of purchasing games. No longer will you have to go to the video game store or movie rental store to purchase or rent video games. You can simply do it from the comfort of your own home. This will certainly remove the hassle of buying and renting games
Onlive provides the ability to try out new games as soon as they are released without having the obligation to purchase it. They plan on allowing 4-5 hour trials of all games.
Beta testing of games. This was never possible before, but this will benefit the game companies and players. Players will be allow to test games before they are released. Best of all, it will be free.
So let’s all cross our fingers and hope Onlive is a sucess.
