I know I am and my reasons are simple no more PC upgrading. And I anticipate a rocky start and we will see patch aftter patch and such to keep making the sevice be what it needs to be great. But once the kinks get worked out I think this service will be truly awsome.
What are your guys thoughts? I already like the controller for TV use. It is basicly just like the 360 controller.
So if I can play pretty much any high end PC game with this service. I am down like charlie brown.
I will be an early subscriber to this service. I think there is HUGE potential with this.
I mean If I can play games like Dragon Age and even like Mass Effect 2 and Stalker Clear Sky and be done with all the PC upgrades. And can run these with high settings in 1280x720. 720p basicly on my 24in flat screen. It's a no brainer for me.
Who is down with ONLIVE? And tell us why?

"I think it's an awesome idea, but I don't believe it can work with no input delay. There will be a noticeable delay. I wish it would work, it'd be extremely awesome if it did."
Well like I said I anticipate early on kinks to get worked out. But they have been in stealth developement for over 7 years. I think once they get enough servers setup on east coast and west and in the middle of US. The sevice will really shine.
I do not think they would already have some big name developers already on board if it is not going to work that well. I think a lot of people are going to be blown away and become beleivers and say WOW they really are pulling this off.
"I'll but it, buy only if it works perfectly. If I do, it'll just be a comeplement to my consoles - I'll only use it for PC games, since I can't afford a gaming rig. I'll still use my consoles, since I really like owning physical copies of my games."I hate to break it to you, but your PC, 360, PS3, or Wii, do not work perfectly...so you better just give them to me.
I am basicly doing just for PC games. I will also still have my home systems. But if they truly do start having developers making games for it in a few years that will be bleeding edge graphics becuase of home systems not being powerful enough that will be truly awsome.
But for now I just want to play all the great PC games and not worry about upgrading anymore.
