If any of you are PC gamers then you are well aware of OnLive. The cloud gaming service that is eerily like the Phantom launched in March and while it offered games like "World of Goo" and "Borderlands" it had a monthly fee of $15 plus the money for the games which most certainly turned a wave of people off (myself included). Y'all can now rejoice as OnLive had dropped the monthly fee and is entirely based on "games rather than access" said Steve Perlman, CEO of OnLive. For those who haven't used the service, there are three ways to play a game. You could buy the full game for $50 and three-five day passes ranging from $6 to $9. You also need a high quality internet connection to run the games in HD (5Mbps recommended) and there is a micro-console that will have the same functionality. A smartphone version is in the works as well.
