Second Life, Rendered on the Cloud and Streamed to a Web Browser

@N00btubehaters I'm sure it's a great stress test for Gaikai as well. SecondLife is the most CPU intensive game-like environment out there.

I'm assuming the graphical processing is done server side, sort of like On-Live. If they were able to get this up and running and you could use your own account, that would save on my hardware woes. I could see all the graphics in the game without having to spend a tone of money I don't have to upgrade my machine.

@RabidKanid That's correct. The 3D background is rendered on the cloud and sent as a high quality video stream. The floaters and text chat is rendered locally on top of it. I wouldn't expect a service like this to be free, though.

@kitsune0video Apparnetly the very short demo is now over. Sorry! Even I can't get back in now.

@AdeonWriter Don't worry. I though was the browser but even with google chrome don't work. Nice that at least you recoreded it so everyone can see it.

I want ask something, people in the vid are commenting about it. Isn't all rendered in 3D? I mean if is just like another "game" in a browser or it's more like an "interactive video" (rendered in a server side without using your hardware at all).

[AdeonWriter]

@kitsune0video Pretty much everyone else was using the regular SL viewer to be there (rendering all the 3D locally). That's probably what they were talking about.

@AdeonWriter Thanks for your reply. Just one more question. Now appear available each time I visit the link, but when its doing the test, it says I dont meet teh requirement. I don't know what are the requirements, but I have 10mps conection, what conection you have please? (just to use as reference).

I'll probably never use this, but Isn't too good if you need a ultra high speed conection. This would be cool to play in mobile device :D
