Onlive: must of bust?

with the official release of onlive(cloud gaming) last week users and gaming sites are starting to publish reviews and details, which make the hardcore pc gamer not happy....

facts:
- max. resolution 1280x720 (even on pc);
- you can only rent games (3days, 5days or 3years) pricinglist;
- next to renting there will be a monthly fee;
- atm only 20 games to choose from;
- pc gamers will notice 'console lag'.

with a late 2011 EU release planned this service is really losing my interest. (i'd rather get a propper pc and own the game)

on another note Gaikai (NL version of Onlive) has signed a deal with EA (BF series, MoH...)
let's wait and see what they'll have in store for us.

I'll leave you with this saying a wise old man once told me:

"You cant polish a turd!"

yes i know it an indie but they have great hopes and if they pull it off it could be awsome(ooh i turned all 90.s kid)
