OnLive is a Cloud based gaming service that forgoes the traditional distribution methods that console gamers have grown accustomed to over the years. Â The no-download, no-disc service allows gamers to get in and play the latest video games streaming from the internet. Â OnLive has had marginal success standing on its own two feet, but recently, rumors have surfaced that the cloud based gaming service is in talks with Microsoft and Sony for a possible partnership in the future.
A representative for the company told MCV
“There are OnLive guys chatting Sony and MS, but we’ll see where it goes. Â But it would absolutely work, we’re ready to work with everybody.” “What people are realizing and waking up to is everything could be a console, why shouldn’t you be able to take your game everywhere. Â I think the timing of this is perfect. Â When I joined the company I didn’t think it was going to pan out this way.”
