how does spectating work? if you have a lot of spectators surely this will cause lag?

**Goldberg** · 18th November 2011

Shouldn't cause lag on your end I would not have thought?

**ant3b** · 18th November 2011

surely there must be some sort of upload to them from you? etc

**Goldberg** · 18th November 2011

I guess.. I am almost at the buying stage for one of the games with a system.. Just want to try one out first!

I don't see why... All data would go through the onlive servers.

Revo, i5 laptop, iMac and the onlive console (Which is the tits) and no lag, great graphics across the board.

I must admit I haven't played with my online console in a while. Time to fire her back up !

**Mule** · 12th July 2013

Anyone still use this?

**iNSPECTA** · 12th July 2013

I found it far too laggy and although the pad is quite good it's not good enough.
Also most games are available for the 360, was no incentive to use onlive, nothing unique or better.
Was going to sell the console a while back but for what I would get for it I may as well keep it.

I bought one off malty, played it once and it's in a box... I should get it out really

**WRATH OF BOD** · 13th July 2013

i thought it all went tits up & gone bust?

**maltloaf** · 13th July 2013

I got a secondhand console and wireless controller off eBay I only wanted the controller to use with the android client but the lot was only �20odd quid delivered but I haven't even took it out of the box yet and that was six months ago.

They did go bust but they kept the company going.

**Goldberg** · 13th July 2013

Never understood why they did not put it into Smart TV's... Makes sense

how does that work ?

I find onlive great for being able to instantly play lots of free trials - with none of the downloading needed like on steam.

The 30 minute kick off often works well to tell me to go do some work too

I know you are not a new user but seeing as you have been registered for 7 years and have made your first 2 posts today maybe you would care to post an introduction as you will need to follow the same rules as our new members

**DejaVu** · 7th August 2013

7 years and the first 2 posts in the last 45 minutes. Strange.

Lurker extraordinaire.
Hmmm, recent rule change means the lurk to leech ratio just went up...!
