On-demand video game company OnLive announced Thursday that its cloud-based instant-play game system is available for pre-order with delivery beginning on Dec. 2.

This seems pretty cool. It hooks up just like any other console with internet connection and a tv connection. You can have up to four controllers being used, and can also use a keyboard and Mouse.

Even at the products launch they will have more than 35 games. These games include anything from Borderlands to NBA2K11.

The games can be tested for free and then converted to a three day or five day rental or Full PlayPass. They said in the future they will add a monthly flat rate plan, giving users access to a game library..

It's hard for me to balance a monthly fee for gaming. I didn't like the Gamefly setup at all. I did the math once and it was a better deal for me to buy new and trade in. At least that way I could guarantee I would get a new release when it was available. I'll be keeping an eye on the OnLive. Thanks for posting.

ya i have been following this for a while, the big downer in this whole deal is no canada support! also not all the developers are onboard with this.

It seems the big downer would be the lag since all the computing is done on their end and the graphics are streamed back to you, but I'd have to play it in person to tell if it was an issue.
