Recently we saw the launch of Onlive, which is a cloud gaming service aimed at people with slow PCs that want to play newer games. The monetary benefits gained by such a service seemed promising and now prices have been revealed for certain games:

- Assassin’s Creed II : $39.99 for unlimited access
- Batman: Arkham Asylum : $6.99 for 5 days / $4.99 for 3 days

Its evident OnLive will save you lots of money if you consider the cost of a whole PC or a console, however prices for these games aren’t that good, considering ” unlimited access” at this time means these are only 3 year rent prices for the games due to licensing limitations. The service is even less desirable if you consider the $15 a month subscription fees which is necessary to play games EVEN if you have “unlimited access”
