Hi, my name is Dylan. I'm a undergrad in Oklahoma. I've been playing video games since i can remember. I still have our family's nes and snes. I really like computer games, but don't have the income to actually play them. I have a 360 and love to play online, but am bored because I have a pretty small library of games. I'm really excited about the possibility of having so many games at my fingertips.

agreed! I'm also a student who is really feeling the cost of tuition right now. That is why this service is so appealing to me. I get the best games with great performance (hopefully) at a cheap cost

Yup! Second year of college, so the first year I really have to deal with "loans" (not living in the dorms). I haven't upgraded my PC since about 10th grade of HS, so it can't play much these days. A lot of the games I enjoy aren't available on gaming consoles (RPGs and RTS).

My name is Landon. I'm 17, going to Utah Valley University in Utah. Really busy with school right now, so that is exactly why I am on forums, because I am procrastinating.

Lets see, I have a low-end laptop, mid-range old PC strapped to a very high-end GPU, too other low-end laptops, and a microconsole(jk). For gaming, Xbox, Wii, Xbox 360, Ipod Touch (Man that thing rocks for games, anyone ever used Unity on it?). I have Xbox Live, don't use it much though. I am an avid Windows 7 user.

I pretty much have a crappy ISP, but hey, its all I can get out here where no other civilization exists. It's a high speed, long range wireless service (Runs on Motorola equipment). Latency is still pretty good though. I am hoping to play this at school with friends.

Hey Landon! My Names Keiron, 17 also but from London, England. Current at school (Sixth Form), second from last year. I own a PS3 as my main console but have always been about about aquiring games, I play very little (an hour or two a day if at all) and my dad plays more than me haha. Other than my PS3 and fairly large libary of games (40 to date), i have a master system, dreamcast and gamecube all recently aquired as i started collecting games. No HD for my PS3 but i'm thinking of getting a HD tv and an internet upgrade to feel the true step up for OnLive... And to pay for it, i'm probabaly gonna be selling all my stuff (including myself) =D

Sorry guys, a little late on the introduction...

My name is chase, I am currently a sophomore at UNC Charlotte studying computer science. I do a whole lot of playing video games, on my ps3, 360, and sometimes my out of date pc (one of the main reasons why I am so excited about onlive, a constant top of the line pc to play on!). When I'm not gaming I am usually either skateboarding, or if its in the winter, on a road trip snowboarding somewhere.

I play all my games on my 26" lcd hdtv vizio. Its great for games, but I also made the decision to use it as my pc monitor (it has a rgb cable input, but I use a dvi to hdmi cord) and It really blows. I mean it looks nice, but the top resolution it can run anything from any pc on is 1360x768. So for a 26" monitor, each icon on my desktop is probably like .5" by .5" lol. I also have a logitech x 540 5.1 surround sound system that I love for the price that I paid and also use it for my 360, ps3, and pc.

Oh hey look at that! There IS an offtopic forum and people use it! Wooo!

I am very old by forum standards(no need to rub it in with an actual number). I was planning on retiring until last fall;( I am semi-retired now. I mispent my youth working in help desk, when I should have been a carpenter, or maching builder of some sort. Ive built hobby CNC machines, written software, built many mediumish sized computer networks. I live in an exurb of Detroit.

I like playing video games, but somehow I prefer talking about video games and studying video game software techniques more than actually playing them.

Hey there fellow fans!

I'm 22 years of age, and currently reside in Orange County California. I've been playing videos since my early teenage years, and am most partial to RPGs and MMOs. I've worked some years in the industry providing in-game support to the oh-so-popular World of Warcraft, and the better part of my time being spent supporting the World of Warcraft forums. I've since moved on from the gaming industry to pursue a career better suited to my professional interests, and am now working the financial institution industry.

OnLive has some very promising potential, and I cannot wait to see the impact it will have on the gaming industry. If OnLive operates as hoped, I foresee some this spilling over to other industries in a very positive way for the consumer.

I look forward to following OnLive, and discussing its various aspects with gamers and fans as excited as I am!

What you would refere to as high school finish's for us at the age of 16 (Now 18 because of new regulations, but if you are 16 and leaving you can choose to go to college instead of staying on in your current school) Fortunantely the above only starts for people who are moving up from primary from last year. :)

I feel sorry for those guys having to stay on till 18. Will be better for the economy though =P Alot more skilled people but at the same time some people just dont have the ability to do A levels and so might be stuck in GNVQs and BTechs in things they cant stand and would rather just get a job.
Still a good idea to educate people further though.

So then its almost the same? =P Compulsory school until 16, then 2 more years of option school. Except from there we go to University, you have to go to college and then university am i correct. And Welcome to the forum Jason, I'll look forward to seeing some OnLive dog tags ;) haha.

I've always thought University and College where the same, most of out colleges are like the university of Washington or Washington state university around here....

And not really the same because u don't really graduate at 16, it's just dropping out and not high school diploma....

I've been a member of EcG (http://www.ecg-css.com/) since late 2004, and have been one of their server admins nearly the entire time. I go by a couple tags on the internet: Zuljin(used this the longest, since back in the days of CS1.5), Nysil(My Xbox Live gamertag), and Adesin. I started out as a huge nintendo fanboy, but graduated to being a PC gamer with the first Counter Strike, and have stayed mostly with PC since, though I've recently grabbed an Xbox 360 since my laptop is aging rather quickly.

I'm Niko. A moderator on the site from pretty much the beginning. Resident E3 and GDC attendee. PAX isn't quite big enough for me to attend yet.

I'm a minor league hockey player (Yes, I actually get payed to play). I've played with a few of the San Jose Sharks over the last 2 years. I hope to actually get onto Pro Ice one day. I'm 29 so I still have at least 5 years.

I've been a gamer since I was 3. I know it sounds weird but I was able to play Frogger and know what I was doing. I still can't play as well as I could then. I think I have owned just about every system that has come out since the Atari 2600. That includes the INSANELY expensive Neo-Geo MVS system.

I work as a financial advisor. Basically, I fix peoples jacked up credit and what not. You know, one of the legit guys. Not the TV advert guys with the bad hair piece.

Onlive obviously is a big deal. Now that the beta is in full swing, my excitement has returned. I can't wait to see the final product.

Welcome to all of the new members, death to all the spammers. Enjoy your stay!

Well, I hope that I get to know more people here, share some experience and start learning. Have a greay day!

Wanted to finally introduce myself. been reading these forums since I found out about OnLive at GDC '09. Thought I should come out of the Onlive closet and introduce myself as we are nearing launch day for it. i never got a beta invite... I would assume it is because I am in Colorado (middle of the country) but I am very much looking forward to giving this service a try.

Hello everyone! Been lurking around for sometime, and now I thought I would just join. My name is Jeff, and I'm an undergrad. I have a 360, but I canceled my xbox live. I also have a ps3 which is my main gaming platform at the moment. I hope OnLive is a great success.

Hello, I'm Carlos.

I'm a gamer (obviously, hehe), I love to draw, I love to connect with new people, and I um. love gaming, heh.

I'm kind of nervous because OnLive is a different community from what I'm used to on PS3.

I'm interested in Computer Security includng networking, therefore I'm also experimenting or learning with Backtrack Linux OS, but I'm wearing a white hat.

I'm pretty much enthusiastic gamer even though my desktop (currently in queue to upgrade!) or laptop cannot give me such a nice gaming graphics or performance.

I've also been playing a guitar for 4 years so far, and also like to watch animes.
I'm bilingual (Korean and English) but also am concerning to learn perhaps Japanese? I've always wanted to learn it.

Nice to meet y'all.

I'd say I'm your resident geek, but I guess there's too many around here to say that! ;P I mainly use Ubuntu Studio Linux, I'll use Windows from time to time, and I hate on Mac. Firefox is my browser of choice, followed by Opera. I'm a webmaster of two websites: Freebies For Us (http://freebiesfor.us) and The Ninja's Hideout (http://whatninja.com). I game occasionally, maybe more when OnLive goes live! I've got most of the popular messengers; if you need to contact me, have a look at my profile. I like cats and other fluffy things - while on the subject, I may as well tell you that I'm a furry. Deal with it. Wanna see what I look like? Fine:

I did not want to know you were a fury.:wtf:


My name is Jack, I've been gaming all my life and am a collector of sorts when it comes to old video game memorabilia. My gamertag is Jugly Uckling on xbox and Onlive (hazardkills on PSN and Steam).

I look forward to Onlive Because I won't have to leave the house to buy my games. This is not because I'm lazy (even though I am). It's due to a deformation in my feet that cases excruciating pain if I stand or walk for more than a few minutes at a time.

anywho, I've always been a gamer (big surprise) but i also play the cello, and practice martial arts (1st degree blackbelt in taekwondo), like manga/anime, and like all types of music but mainly rock. Um...yea. Pretty sure that's everything thats at least slightly interesting about me :P

I listen to various types of Rock music, Classic Rock, Metalcore, Deathcore, Melodic Death Metal, Heavy Metal, Hardcore, Post-Hardcore, Alternative, Hard Rock, etc, and has owned every game system.

I play guitar in my band, know Japanese, (still taking classes, but I know a bit). Also, I read manga everyday and love ALMOST everything Japanese, lol.

Name's Rick, I'm 27, and I go by Alphasim in honor of my first website (long story). I love anime, gaming and following sports. I run e-AAGH.net, a gaming site that I launched back in January of '05, working off of my third iteration of the Alphaforum (a forum I used to run). I produce a virtual robot combat video series (via Robot Arena 2) called AON on YouTube, with AON1 wrapping up in '04 but AON2 stagnating as we speak. I play World of Warcraft, but have only one level 80, my human Retribution Paladin.

Being the web master and lead editor of e-AAGH.net, I review most of the games and maintain the site. Reviewing games has been a life-long fascination of mine, and now I do it (more or less) for a living.

In short: Hi, I'm boring. :nerd:

know I'm a little late with this but I figured I should make one to have one on record for you all to see (:

I'm a pretty hardcore gamer when it comes to shooters(tf2) and mmorpgs, all the rest I enjoy. I've got vast experience playing old titles dating to the original Nintendo(still have the console and a box full of games xD!). I am currently a highschool student in Florida at Crooms AOIT(tech school)... I LOVE graphics art, but thats more of my hobby than anything else. I run cross country, track, and play soccer. My goals after highschool is to join the Navy, get a degree in graphic design, then take the Seal challenge to enter as an officer.

I've been looking to hop back into the whole forum world, so why not start up again by going at it with a site that has something to do with what I'm really interested in ;p. The OnLiveFans community has proven to be quiet entertaining at times while providing some interesting debates and information.

Those of you who already know me might have already seen I'm not to hard of a guy to get along with, I don't try to make enemies, and consider myself a pretty funny guy. I am ready to take control of any situation and think out any problems systematically and plan out all possible outcomes.

If you have any questions... I mean anything...just ask, I'm here to assist.

Hello everyone, I'm new here. :)

I've had an Onlive gamer tag for about a week now, and let me say that I love it! It works great, and looks good too. :grin:

Now for a little bit of my back story... :ranger: I've been gaming since I was about 3 years old with the good ol' SNES. I've gotten a ton of games throughout the years I had it, most of it being awesome while some being bad of course. I've been gaming ever since. :)

Hello all. My name is Ron. I'm from Brooklyn, NY and 22 years old. I've been playing video games since the SNES days. Currently I have an xbox 360 and a Wii. I'm always excited for new technology. I was anticipating OnLive for a long time. I've been quite impressed with it so far in the limited time I've been on it. My player tag on OnLive is the same as my forum name (CrazyRonIsHere). So far I have only played Borderlands on OnLive but I was very impressed with what I saw (but this is for another discussion forum so I'll stop there). Anyway, my favorite genre of games is sports. I enjoy some FPS games, RPG's, and racing games as well, but sports are definitely the ones I play the most.

Hello, I'm Charles and I'm a casual gamer who loves the ideal of Onlive and has been using it for about 2 weeks. Free gaming to try out and play games without the hassle of having a pc thats up to spec or a new system. Never really had any desire to try out the new systems because I never thought they were worth it since I don't play games as much as I used to when I was younger. But Onlive is perfect for me and it kind of reminds me of a service I used to love as a kid(even more so with the introduction of the PlayPack) called Sega Channel. So far I really don't have a reason to get the Microconsole now, but will probably get one in the future, and I look forward to Jan 15th when I will be able to subscribe to the playpack service when it comes out of beta.

Glad to be on board this site, I would definately consider myself a fan after using the service and even recieving immediate help from Onlive customer service when I had a problem. Once a again, a great service.

Hi. My name is Mike and I'm 34. I started gaming back in the Atari/Coleco days and have been a big gamer ever since. I'm a IT techie by trade but moved out of building custom gaming rigs and PC gaming years ago even though I was a hardcore PC gamer back in the Quake 2/Unreal days (was also a tech support rep on IRC for GameSpy), simply because I just got tired of upgrading every six months. I've been a PS2/XBOX 360 gamer since, but now with OnLive, I'm moving back into PC gaming. The service in my area seems to have improved dramatically, whereas before I could barely play, now I can play for hours without lag or any problems. I love supporting new technology so I can't wait to get my Microconsole and ditch the i3 laptop.

I look forward to chatting on here.

(I apologize for the duplicate posts. I posted a separate intro thread before I realized this thread was already started.)

Oh, wait...wrong intro speech.

I'm a college kid whose grown up with video games, so the thought of online streaming straight to my Mac got me pretty excited. I've been looking for a way to keep up with OnLive news, so this seems like just the place. I've also got a Wii and a DSi XL, so I'm always open to talking about them too. I'm a member of another small forum. The link's on my profile here if you wanna stop by. </shameless plug>

Anyway, my OnLive tag is rhyno15, so feel free to add me so I can make some new friends.

LickMe
01-17-2011, 01:51 PM
Was wondering where this thread was. Anywho, I've been here for quite awhile now. I can't remember where I found this but I think I just stumbled in this website from googling related OnLive websites. I'm not going to reveal any personal things about me but all you should know is the name's LickMe and I'm a tired 23 year old gamer. Yes, a tired gamer. Meaning, I've been playing games since I was a kid, probably 5 years old and now I just don't care about this whole fuss about that everyone seems to debate more than I do. I mean, used to do that but it's like not worth it that much anymore. First game I played was that 2-in-1 cartridge game Super Mario Bros. + Duck Hunt on the Nintendo Entertainment System. Played most of the popular consoles from there on: Super Nintendo, Sega Genesis, Sega Game Gear, Gameboy, Pocket Gameboy, Gameboy Color, Gameboy Advance SP, Sega Saturn, Sega Dreamcast, Atari (can't remember what model), Nintendo 64, Nintendo Gamecube, Original Xbox, PS1, PS2, PS3, Xbox 360, all that good stuff. I don't know, I guess you can call me one of those veteran gamers. I'm just here to play video games, that's what matters now for me when it comes to gaming.

If anyone's interested in adding me as their friend, it's LickMe10.

So I searched up "OnLive", and to my surprise I come up to OnLive.com, that was the day I signed up for access (March 31st 2009). Didn't get into the service untill sunday June 19th 2010. So there was my lovely story.

Being a forum guy, I stumbled across this site a short time back and have enjoyed the discussion enough to sign up. As I often get on people for not introducing themselves on my home forum, here is my own intro.

Nick's Ithian. I've been in Onlive since June. I initially signed up for the beta in 2009 when they first announced, but I guess my request got lost in translation. Signed up again after I saw the beta launched and got the invite a few days later. Go figure. :)

I didn't have much time to play around with the service at the time, but now that I have I'm slowly falling head over heels for this thing. Every time I logon I'm increasingly impressed by Onlive, and with my Homefront pre-order I'm looking forward to trying out the mc.

Found this forum looking through google and decided to join to meet new people. one thing i like about online is the Area. i enjoy watching other people play games its entertaining sometimes.

Little about myself. i live in hawaii, attending a Community College for now. usually spend my time either with school work or video games!

Not to get too off topic, but it was a clean hit that Moore popped on the nuck, then Bertuzzi publicly said he was going to go after Moore.. I think the rest speaks for itself.

BTW I am Transmeta on OnLive, I like RPGs, Puzzle, and random type games, I do enjoy the so called 'shitty' games that get added to playpack, and you may catch me around playing multiplayer in various things, even though I don't like MP or FPS all that much.

Hello! I'm Andrew Pyle, but you can call me PyGuy (My OnLive player tag). I am pretty new to this OnLive thing, but I'm already very impressed with it. I'be already saved $91.50 over what I'd buy on a console! Thanks, OnLive!

Wow, how could I never have seen this thread before ? :x

Well, I'm Pierre, one of the few french people that hang around here (go ahead Tyro, I know you want to make a joke about us :p), I'm 20, studiying in computer science and I play a lot of different game types (Mmo, fps, rpg, plateform, adventures, ...), even if MMOs and RPGs have my preference :)

I played a lot F3AR and Split/Second but I got quite bored, so I'm waiting a bit to get the money to buy more games :)

OnLive is a great thing, I almost stopped playing on my ps3 tho, so I hope it'll continue this way :)

Have fun on OnLive, and see you around guys :)

Hello my name is Stephen, I am from Northern Ireland, United Kingdom. I am new to this cloud gaming and hope it replaces my gaming life from other consoles. So far I am impressed with pricing, stab-ability of the games but they do still have lag now and then. But I believe my biggest experience with OnLive is the customer service, I have used the live chat twice now and they have been very helpful, which is very rare in the gaming world *cough*EA*cough*.
I hope to find some friends here to play these cool games with, my name as usual in everything else is Challenger2uk. So anyone from the UK or EU wants to play and have fun add me :)

Hey, I'm IK Grubb. This is my intro.

I'm a gamer for life, and a game tester at Microsoft Game Studios. I've been credited on a bunch of games for QA work (Crackdown 2, SOCOM 4, Kinect FunLabs, and Forza 4 come Tuesday). My plan is to work my way up the industry ladder and work as a dev in the next 5 years.

I got introduced to OnLive at PAX Prime this year. My wife was working the GameSpot booth and managed to get me a microconsole. Since then, I've been hooked.

Outside of gaming, I'm happily married and have a beautiful daughter.

I look forward to getting to know you guys!

This is the first time I saw this thread, too. My name is Chris, and I'm an Air Force print journalist. I've been in the Air Force for more than 11 years and have pretty much traveled the world over.

I've done some video game journalism with Joystiq and some freelance work with a few other outlets, but now that I've remarried and have custody of my twins, I really don't have the time for any more work. I'm about a year away from finishing my bachelors in Business Communication. I'd like to use it to get a PR gig in the gaming industry in a few years.

Oh yeah, I also co-host the OnLiveFans Cast with a few other forum members. It's a pretty rad podcast, so you guys should definitely check it out if you haven't already!

As far as gaming goes, I've been playing since the Atari 2600 and have pretty much owned every system that has come out since, with the exception of the Atari Jaguar, Neo Geo and Phillips CD-I.

Hello, my name is Shawn. I'm 25 years old as of Oct. 6th and I've been playing video games since I picked up my dads game boy as a child. I play almost every genre of game from FPSs to RPGs to almost everything in between. I don't really now what else to put so I'll leave with saying why I love Onlive and why I think it's the wave of the future.

I love Onlive because I've had a decent internet connection for years but my computer is ancient by today's standards and with Onlive I don't have to fret. With my internet I could download almost any game with little effort but installing and playing those games was a different story. Sure I could get the game on there but when it came to playing it I either had to play with severely reduced graphics or suffer chop and low frame rate. With Onlive I don't have to even think about system requirements or anything else on the technical side. It allows me to remain a PC gamer with out having to spend thousands of dollars getting a high end computer to play the next generation of games. And that's why I love Onlive, it gives me a high end PC, and has some of the greatest deals on the video game market.

In the past six months I have bought and now own more games then I have in the past three years, usually renting for other systems since it's cheaper, but Onlive does so many awesome deals and with $5 Dollar Fridays it's as cheap and as easy as going to my local video store. So, Onlivefans.com community, count me among your numbers, for I am an Onlive fan for life.

Started playing OnLive a while ago and I've been bought in ever since. Not up to playing a lot of multiplayer with strangers though. I've been trying to spread the word on my community about OnLive and it's getting a bit more popular. I made a full review of it, which I'll post later.

Hi guy's my names Graham, age 32 and I'm from Manchester in England. Had Onlive for nearly a month now and loving it. I've got the playpack bundle and Deus Ex: HR augmented edition up to now... think I will get 'the missing link' and 'Batman' next.
I love Onlive because I can play it on any PC/laptop in my house where ever I happen to be sat at the time.

IRL I make my own websites (5 up to now) and fix/maintain computers and what not so I'm self-employed.

Interests are gaming, computers, space and science, writing and football... that would be (English Football, soccer in the U.S). Support Manchester United.

I found 'onlivefans' when I messaged 'onlive' on Twitter and then 'onlivefans' added me so I added back and came here to set up an account, hope I can contribute to the forum and it's members.
(Hopefully game with a few of you at some point).

......if you don't work, then you actually mean that WE (taxes) are paying for your games.

Please tell me your not working is due to being fired and not being able to find a job, not just because you don't want to work.

Hey, I'm Courdero from New York. I am 14. I love hardcore games, especially FPS games. Since I have no console to play on, I depend on Onlive at the moment. That might change, even though I love Onlive. It does not have the FPS games I want, and there are currently none coming, so...

I do play other games too, but I like FPS games the most now.

Hiya!

My name's Georgie and I live under a pleasant raincloud in WA. Me mum is from Llanishen, Cardiff (I grew up nice 'n proper there before moving stateside to deal with the joys that is the american school system. What a waste of my time -that- was. :D). The first game I ever played was a Jumpman clone called Jump Joe, but River Raid on Atari was what ultimately started me down the path. Most of my free time is dominated by playing games and chatting with friends, reading comic books (no manga or anime for me, thanks), watching korean and chinese television dramas, running roleplaying games (AD&D 2nd, Hero 6th, Traveller, Star Wars d6), and playing table-top board and card games (I particularly like horror themed ones-especially those with a lovecraftian flair). I also enjoy listening to my girlfriend yell at Skyrim every time a bug ruins her quest.

I play quite a variety of games and am willing to try -nearly- everything. Horror games are a favorite (I loved Amnesia and the Darkness Within series) along with strategy games (Evil Genius currently has claimed my soul). I enjoy playing and chatting with people that share my love of games and have mature attitudes. I'm here to have fun, not take any crap. That's not fun, not nice, and Xbox Live made me tired of it.

I really like OnLive. Being able to just turn it on and buy and play whatever I want without having to worry about system requirements really sold me. Being able to play on my Macbook was also a huge thing, though I do have the microconsole as well. It really is the future and I honestly don't know how I survived this long without it. I haven't touched any of my other gaming systems since hopping aboard. And I never would have thought this, but the ability to spectate is a big thing for me. That I can watch a friend is playing and chat with them reminds me of the old days when my best friends would gather at my house and we'd all sit around and play something together, passing controllers around if it wasn't multiplayer. Having moved away from all of them, this really brings those days back and we can have our game days again.

At any rate, add me if you like. If I'm on, I'm usually willing to chat if not play something together. My blutooth headset suffered a gruesome death of multiple puncture wounds when my 2-year old cat, Zeke, decided it seemed like something fun to gnaw on; so I have no means of chatting when I'm playing on the microconsole. Sadness. I hope to remedy this flaw this weekend.
