I can't believe there isn't a thread about this yet. Have you kids checked this out?

If you have an uber crappy computer, but want to play higher-end games, this is your dream come true (assuming your internet connection is good).

I signed up for the demos they offer, my nickname is quart. Come find me. If you put your payment info in, you get a free membership for a year. After my year is done, I'll cancel, but it's good to try stuff out with until then.

If the tech was better this would be a cool services but from what i hear there is a noticeable lag between when you input a command and when it is received .. But this is a minor lag and people can still use and play the games


One feature i like is that you can watch other people play any game anytime , Get a good feel of the game or if your bored get a free "lets play" video lol
it doesn't change the fact that most people think Jews are much like the Ferengi of Star Trek. More interested in acquiring "profits" than anything else. -Erkdog

If there is a lag, it's not enough to really affect the gameplay. Watching others play is kinda cool. As i said before, I'll never buy a game on this platform, but rather just use it for demoing games that i'm interested in. Darksiders may have me hooked.
