I never knew about that... hmm, interesting... what was its max speed? 28.8k?i thought it was the Saturn. but same concept. payed a monthly fee, and could choose from many sega games to play whenever you wanted. just scroll through the list, and play. every month, the list was changed, so you always had something new to play.
You don't NEED Hdmi, you can get a converter.so you need hdmi
so where does the cartridge go??
no. it was delivered via coax thru time-warner cable... so you got multiplexed broadband speedsI never knew about that... hmm, interesting... what was its max speed? 28.8k?
lol wanna put $ on how long it will take Nintendo/MS/Sony to come up w/a similar solution?I just don't think this will catch on. Wii, 360, and PS3 are just too established.
Ding ding ding. And with OnLive already patented all this, they are all screwed.lol wanna put $ on how long it will take Nintendo/MS/Sony to come up w/a similar solution?
similar not exact, it'll happen or one of em will buy this company and pwn it!Ding ding ding. And with OnLive already patented all this, they are all screwed.
Microsoft can't patent their controller. It'd be too broad and would get shot down. The thing they could have done was copyright the overall design/look of the controller.similar not exact, it'll happen or one of em will buy this company and pwn it!
BTW I'm sure MS patented their controller before they ripped it off,
Future prediction:
MS lawyers sue the s**t outta this company
Company goes bankrupt MS buys out debt
new Xbox 720!!!
Haha
Just as onlive cannot patent streaming games with browser plugins and the like.Microsoft can't patent their controller. It'd be too broad and would get shot down. The thing they could have done was copyright the overall design/look of the controller.
They didn't patent the idea of streaming games, they patented the concept and design of the way to compress the data to be able to stress to a 1.5MBps connection.Just as onlive cannot patent streaming games with browser plugins and the like.
Patents and copyrights are just toys for expensive lawyers to jump around.
oh, they patented a technique?They didn't patent the idea of streaming games, they patented the concept and design of the way to compress the data to be able to stress to a 1.5MBps connection.
xbl + netflix is pretty damned awesomeI'd rather stick with 360 live.
Something like this, I'm sure they've covered all the bases. This is somewhat ground breaking to stream a high definition GAME to a computer that only needs a broadband connection.oh, they patented a technique?
well that's the easiest patent to get around
change the process in any way and you dont even have to use lawyers.
yes it is...... why yes it is!xbl + netflix is pretty damned awesome
