OnLive predicts the death of consoles

Post by Drakonis »

Your thoughts?
Tom Dubois, executive producer at OnLive, has predicted that home consoles will eventually be replaced by cloud gaming, a service which OnLive currently provides. Dubois, who was speaking in an interview with GamesIndustry.biz, also stated that the future would see games built specifically for cloud computing

he's a r... special needs person....

consoles are designed for, and actively marketed at, the technically/mentally challenged. this will not change in a hurry...

if anything, the current console market will continue to happily shell out for the 'privilege' to access cloud based services... which is like being handed money for flatulence...

May it never come to pass. I like actually owning something I buy and having the physical product to show for it.
