Digital Foundry writes: Having dominated the mainstream media last week after what can only be described as a hugely successful UK debut at the Eurogamer Expo, OnLive has finally arrived in the UK, offering nigh-on instant access to a range of over 100 games via the technological magic of cloud gaming.
We all know the score: OnLive reckons that the age of owning your own gaming hardware is coming to an end and that the future is all about streaming gameplay video across the internet from secure datacentres, with "dumb terminal" clients beaming back your joypad, mouse or keyboard commands. There's no need to buy new console or PC hardware - the servers will be upgraded instead - and the vision is for OnLive to become almost like gaming's equivalent to the MP3 player: a compressed, compromised, not quite as good as the full-fat product, but more than good enough for the mainstream.
