eh. well, it's something that deserves a try. personally, I can't wait till they add Deus Ex human revolutions, as well as Driver San Francisco. once again, please, just give it a shot. I really want to see tech like this succeed.

Yeah but I saw some of the games included in that package and they didn't seem too great.

yeah, but my favorite plan is paying 10 bucks a month for full access to over 50 games.

I just looked at their site and it seems cool but I didn't see any games I'd wanna get really. Also how does that plan work where you pay only 5 bucks for a game(like Arkum Asylum) for 3 days and then it goes up?

right, but it's not a competitive service, it's more complementary. I use it to play games that are out of the strength range of my laptop. I also use it to try games that are IN my computer's strength range. Like I said, press the button, and you can play the game immediately, no downloads.

So you do have to buy the games right? I might check it out sometime but I don't really need it. Steam is working just fine for me atm.

Oh, I just realized what you meant, the service itself is free, as well as the multiplayer, but you pay for individual games. you don't HAVE to buy the games though, you can just demo them instantly. no seriously, click the button and the game starts right away.

No catch. Was there a catch to using steam?

What's the catch?

It's a cloud gaming service. I use it in addition to steam to play games out of my computer's strength range. Basically, play the game on their servers using their resources, and stream the audiovisual data. in other words, play games on their computers from your computer. Works better than it sounds, and it's free.
