OnLive does "everything" Wii U does

Nintendo believes Wii U will change the way we play games, but according to OnLive boss Steve Perlman, everything it does UK gamers will be able to experience this autumn.

OnLive is the cloud-based gaming system that allows users to play high-end games through the internet as opposed to a home console.

Does OnLive play without an internet connection? No.
Does OnLive give you the advantages of having a physical copy of the game(trading, borrowing, sharing,collecting?) No.
Is OnLive available everywhere? No.
If this isn't a valid argument, I don't know what is.

L6RD7BLU35448d ago

Do you actually own the game you buy, FLAT NO! OnLive can kiss it.

EYEamNUMBER15447d ago

someone told me onlive has no games can someone comment on that

they said anyone can use it but then when i went to try it they said my internet connection was too lame so i dunno

TheDareDevil5447d ago

You also need a fast broadband connection to play games with OnLive

carlitoskaruuz5448d ago

Seriously, if everyone is going to express their hate on the Wii U, then just do not get one!

Personally, until Nintendo reveals their new online system, I'm not sold entirely.

onlive doesnt sell lol. Nintendos stuff does.

fatstarr5448d ago

Meh the video game industry has legions of quality games
99% of the games on the android and ios + tablet market couldn't even scratch the crappiest games of this gen.

this article just seems like an attack, people say their system does this and that but nothing done like wiiu and even if they do will they have 3 games that support all these features or 1000 games that support the features that's the difference,

but to each his own,

disagree if you want but downloads will be the death of gaming

read the t.o.s. you dont own anything you download off
xbl
steam
nintendo market
sonys store
etc.

Brasi825448d ago

As it is, you really don't even own the physical games you buy. At least according to the companies that make them. [glares at Activision menacingly]

fatstarr5447d ago

well we do as long as its a disk

then you get to use ur right as a citizen in the us to make backups and such, you cant do that with digital distribution but all this is a front to get the consumer to agree to downloads over disks, there is no real costs imo. disks are cheap as hell and the process got so cheap to burn its not even funny. its all a conspiracy

U.S. patent examiner rejects Nintendo’s summoning characters patent as obvious: non-final ruling

The rejection is non-final (and even when such rejections are labeled as “final”, the process is far from over, given that there can be, at minimum, an appeal to the Federal Circuit).

Good, as they should! A game mechanic like that shouldn't be locked behind a patent, and Nintendo didn't invent it either.

PRIMORDUS41d ago (Edited 41d ago )

Nintendo wants to keep wasting money on bullshit lawsuits, real smart in this economy. They should put that money aside for other game projects. On the other hand, I don't care if they waste it all either, and they are screwed in the future maybe that will teach them a lesson.

Well dayum lol. Old agent orange pissing off every industry and nation.

0hMyGandhi66d ago

The fact that you have ANY disagrees will forever baffle me. And to the (apparent) MAGA contingent that exists on this website, enjoy your 8-9 dollar gas.

AuraAbjure65d ago (Edited 65d ago )

Yes, they had better be pissed after Trump told them the way they rip off the USA is over.

EveryPlatformGamer67d ago

LOL I read this on gaff, will they refund the money back to the gamers? highly unlikely. Didn't they just raise prices and pass it onto the gamers? Only Nintendo would send out the Ninjas to the US government.

-Foxtrot66d ago

That’s what I was thinking, imagine them winning hypothetically, getting a s**t load of money back which they would have lost if they hadn’t raised their prices and it’s business as normal.

It would just mean people paid more for no reason since they got the money back anyway.

Outside_ofthe_Box66d ago (Edited 66d ago )

A lot of companies partially passed the cost to consumers instead of all of it. They would still have to at least pay that back to gamers, but we know that won't happen. What's also sad is that prices won't come back down after the initial hike caused by tariffs.

People didn't understand the full repercussions of tariffs. That alone should have cost him the presidency if people knew it was a permanent price hike for consumers

Inverno66d ago

The people should sue these companies for having to over pay cause of these tariffs.

Eonjay66d ago

Naw they should sue the government for forcing the tax to begin with. No one reasonably expects these companies to absorb the taxes. Many smaller companies tried and were shut down or faced to increase prices to try to maintain their business. The tariffs effect everyone.

Inverno65d ago

I meant it mostly as a joke cause we all know the costs of these tariffs were passed onto the consumer. But it's seems no matter how vocal we are here in the states our "representatives" don't seem to care enough to represent us. And things are about to get worse.

Killer2020UK65d ago

The companies were doing what the law required then to do, the tariffs however were illegally implemented. Usually it's criminals we punish, you seem to have different ideas 🤷‍♂️
