While I'm not a fan of purchasing streamed content from a cloud, the Onlive stuff does work relatively well. The IQ is never as crisp as running a game directly; however, it's certainly a nice option for those that don't have the hardware to run a game or to test out a game for 30 minutes. I've gotten Amnesia for free, a few other games for next to nothing during sales, and have played a good many trials to take games for a test drive.

My Favorite RPGs: Divinity franchise, Gothic franchise (including Arcania, so I think I'm alone...), Venetica, Risen, Two Worlds II, The Witcher, Sacred franchise, Fallout franchise, Mass Effect 1, Alpha Protocol, Planescape: Torment, Drakensang, KOTOR 1 & 2, etc.
