http://www.onlive.com - I may not be much of a gamer, but I sympathize with them. If you want to buy a new video game, you have to drive to your local store, wasting valuable gas you could be using on something more important (like taking your grandmother to the doctor for a hip replacement). Of course, you could always just order your games online, right? You could, if you don't mind a long wait and shipping/handling charges. That's where OnLive comes in. Their services allows you to download new and vintage video game titles from a wide variety of publishers, including Electronic Arts, UbiSoft, and Atari.
You do not download the games. Period. That fact is actually what makes this whole thing so interesting. I strongly suggest reading the section "... how it works" that you so blatantly skipped.
