Unfortunately with the insanely low monthly caps* that some of us have in Canada, this service is dead on arrival, just like Netflix Canada which has an extremely limited library to begin with.
* ex: my download+upload monthly cap is 35GB, after that it's something like 5$/GB.
I'm curious how the controller works... I already have the controller. Is the $50 for the an adapter or another controller with an adapter?
I love the concept of OnLive, and from what I've seen of it (based on what I've played), it works great.
Tried it out a few months ago and was really impressed -- no issues with lag, even on a sub-par Internet connection on a four year old MacBook Pro. Being able to play some console-quality titles on my iPad seems pretty awesome.
That said, I wish they had a larger selection of games...
Who the hell are you signed up with?? Are you out in the country side?
Also in Canada, also with 400GB monthly cap. Cost is $50/month, including phone.
50$/month with phone and 400GB cap? Which company?
@people saying "I'm happy wih my Xbox 360/PS3"
Yes, but the point in this is you won't need to shell out on an Xbox 3/PS4/new graphics card, because this will always be able to offer more power than any hardware you can have in your home.
I tried this on my Kindle Fire this morning after having OnLive since it debuted. It amazes me how they were able to get it all working. On-screen controllers aren't too bad and the 3D is awesome.
Oh, and don't doubt that they ARE ready for the demand. They took MONTHS just trying to get it to work seamlessly on Wi-Fi already.
Wait a minute...! The app is on the Kindle Fire and not the iPad? WTF?
