I was wondering if anyone knows how talking will work on the Onlive. I read somewhere that the Micro Console thing has bluetooth, so could I just use my bluetooth head set and talk to all my friends and talk to people in game? or is it going to be weird like the Wii and not have anything like that? Also how would you do that on the computer? My computer doesn't have bluetooth so would I need to get a bluetooth dongle or would just a normal microphone for the computer work?

Thanks to who ever helps answer my question! :D

yes, it has support for up to 4 bluetooth headsets.

and as for your pc, yes, you would need a bluetooth dongle if you wanted to use your bluetooth headset. they are very cheap, i saw on spoofee.com a week or so ago one for free (like $10, then there is a $10 mail in rebate).

if not, you can just use a wired usb headset. also, if you plan on using a wired 360 controller, you can just use the 360 mic, because it pics up and recognizes as any other usb mic.

most of that is theoretical since they don't have a lot of specs and info out yet, but i dont see why they wouldn't let you do that when you can do it for other pc games, doesn't make sense. they would have to use the same mic style pic up as any other pc game for the pc/mac version since they already said all pc controllers will work.

Ok cool thanks! I'll probably buy one of those $10 dongles if I want to play on the computer.
