Nerd Life: OnLive. It Just Works

[whorelix]

I have a shitty laptop and a shitty 10MB connection. Onlive works awesome. The haters are full of shit. I get lag on ps3 or Xbox or the occasional slowdown it happens on ALL consoles sometimes. Onlive's only problem? price of game if new games were £20 or less the console market would die overnight. It really is very good.

[KingerRules101]

play onlive now its epic

[sonicheroes777]

I lol'd because you can play FEAR 2 for free during beta.

[daftbottv]

@sonicheroes777 I lol'd at your comment because I play everything for free on OnLive because I'm a gaming journalist...

[LogicShadow]

@daftbottv Lucky. XD

[daftbottv]

@LogicShadow yeah not so lucky. The service has degraded over the past few weeks into a noticeably laggy mess. check out my thoughts on it on my site the72pins (dot) com

[1videowatcher57]

this is a great idea of a product, right now there is too many people not liking it but i guarantee in 2 or so years it would be the best thing out there for convenience and price in gaming. i dont have 1 but im anxious for them to perfect it then i will put my xbox and ps3 in a box in my basement and play this.

[daftbottv]

@1videowatcher57 s much as I love it, I would never put away other systems because of exclusives and the community on those sites is just stronger.

[ghisfun]

@daftbottv i have ps3 should i buy borderlands on this or on ps3

[daftbottv]

@ghisfun Buy it on whatever you want. I don't care.

[playerxyz3]

haha, waving at yourself ftw

[vidkeeper9]

idk but i can load a web page in no time and i can load a 10 minute youtube video in about 1 minute ........ so i dont understand why this thing hates me =P they should change it where any one can try it no matter the speed if their internet

[daftbottv]

@vidkeeper9 It might hate you because of how your router is set up, what ports you have on or off, how your wifi is going.

Are you doing a wired connection or wifi? If wifi is it N?

[vidkeeper9]

Onlive sucks when i try it it says your connection speed is not fast enough and a speed test says 27.02 mb/s

[daftbottv]

@vidkeeper9 that's your own network problems. I'm using the service perfectly as are a few hundred thousand others. It doesn't matter what your test speed is. Are you running other web based programs? What's your upload speed?

[gh3rocker123]

I was in the video! I'm coecoe123

[ibedraw]

you should totally get a screen capture software

[daftbottv]

@ibedraw care to pay for it?

[ibedraw]

@daftbottv have you heard of cnet

[daftbottv]

@ibedraw yeah what about it

[ibedraw]

@daftbottv did you look there

[daftbottv]

@ibedraw no... why would i look there when it's the most disorganized horribly monitored site for products ever.

[ibedraw]

@daftbottv do you have a dvr

[daftbottv]

@ibedraw nope because I don't have cable... i don't watch TV... just games and movies.

[ibedraw]

@daftbottv well Ive heard if you take a DVD recorder connect your laptop to your tv and press record it might work as a screen capture

[daftbottv]

@ibedraw a DVD recorder? And I don't use my laptop... this is far too much work. Sorry.

[ibedraw]

@daftbottv ha ha okay it is just something i heard i never actually tried it myself but it is just a suggestion

[PortalMouth]

Thanks for uploading this. I've been interested in OnLive for quite sometime but have never gotten any very solid feedback. (Besides speculation and such.) So, again thanks for helping me feel a lot more comfortable in it. Have a good day or anything else you want to have a good thing of.

[daftbottv]

@PortalMouth just realize that the service won't work if you're over wifi. You have to have a hard wired connection to your router.

[PortalMouth]

@daftbottv Thanks for the information. I'm glad I subscribed to you. 

[PerfectCode11]

@daftbottv It can work over Wi-Fi, great in fact if the Wi-Fi is good. The reason Wi-Fi is not currently supported is because the OnLive team is trying to have as few variables as possible so they can view the internet as it is, without adding Wi-Fi variables.

[daftbottv]

@PerfectCode11 I have Wireless N from 3 feet away 50 down 12 up and it won't even allow it. So whether it's capable or not isn't the point. The point is it's not letting people right now.

[PerfectCode11]

@daftbottv >_>

[daftbottv]

@PerfectCode11 I don't know what that's supposed to mean. Could you just say say what you're trying to insinuate with emoticons? Thanks.

[PerfectCode11]

@daftbottv No.

Anyways, who is your ISP, how much do you pay per month for internet, and what modem are you using? Thanks.

[daftbottv]

@PerfectCode11 I'm sorry but I'm not going to answer questions like that if some one is acting as rude as you. I don't appreciate that kind of attitude.

I've been polite, and acting like that isn't going to get me to suddenly give you all my information.

[PerfectCode11]

@daftbottv Ok, thanks.

[JosephHines123]

You have successfully unsubscribed. -- later douche

[daftbottv]

@JosephHines123 LOL as much as I love having charming people like you take pleasure in my videos. I'm totally fine with you never watching my videos again. Thanks for everything... or whatever.

[makcheekan]

@JosephHines123 D'aww, did you get mad because it was pointed out that saying "First" is retarded?

OT: OnLive sounds like something that would be MEGA awesome if it works. But I've been very skeptical considering the mechanics of it. But it seems like it really does work. Though I assume you need a pretty fast connection.

[daftbottv]

@JosephHines123 ewww really? dude... no one comments on my videos. Literally nothing to brag about... just obnoxious.
