More news regarding OUYA and future content that will be available when this Android-based home gaming console launches next year. It seems more and more companies are coming out to throw their weight behind the unit by supporting it with content for when it launches. The newest company to come out is OnLive and on top of that we get a look at the actual OUYA game controller.
The OnLive game streaming service is already available for Android devices thanks to their application on Google Play. It is also starting to become available pre-installed on some Google TVs as well such as the LG Smart TV (G2 series) via a future software update and the VISO Co-Star. However, that leaves other Google TV owners without OnLive but that will soon be changing.
OnLive has fired up an Easter Sale where you can get a selection of games that you can stream to any of your devices for up to 75% the price of a lifetime pass. Basically what this means is that once you buy a lifetime pass for a game, you can stream it to any device you own for an unlimited amount of time, as long as OnLive is online.
Sega last week released eleven Sega Genesis console titles onto OnLive for people to enjoy, two games today and have even more planned for the future as well. While most OnLive users on Android won’t be able to play these using a touch screen, Xperia Play owners and gamers who have the Universal Remote gamepad will be able to enjoy these games.
We knew this would happen although it took a little while for Rockstar to get everything in place but for those of you who play OnLive games on your Android tablets, there is one more game that now comes with mobile optimized touchscreen controls and that is L.A. Noire from Rockstar Games.
There are a total of sixteen new titles on OnLive right now that are available for free to play on your Android device. These games have one thing in common, they are all nominees for various Independent Game Festival (or IGF for short) awards.
If you told me a decade back that I’ll be enjoying some recently released Sonic Adventures and Crazy Taxi on a handheld, Sony’s no less, I would have scoffed at the thought and blamed it on the case of some Y2K hysteria. Nevertheless, these tittles have made its way on the often over looked OnLive game streaming app.
Wish you can play the latest and greatest games without the expense of overpriced hardware? You’re in luck as Google recently announced a partnership with video game streaming company, OnLive. Steve Perlman, founder and CEO of OnLive, revealed on the official Google blog, plans to bring their program to Google TV enabled devices and television.
This year has been a mixed bag for Android gamers. Disappointments were the name of the of the day but yet despite the these lowly setbacks, Android gaming also took a huge leap in the right direction. Between massive jumps in hardware performance, more new features added to the OS regarding gaming and gaming specific devices released, it has been a great year for Android gaming.
Well OnLive seems to be making a lot of news over the past couple of days whether it’s regarding their possible pricing structure change in the near future for all upcoming games or adding full Xperia Play support which landed this morning. OnLive has switched the free game you get when you download the OnLive app, put a bunch of games on sale and are holding a gaming contest.
