Cloud-based gaming service OnLine has been developing briskly over the last half year. Their first move onto the iPad, the free OnLive Viewer app, doesn’t let you play games but rather lets you watch them as they’re being played. Huh!

OnLive MicroConsole Streams Cloud-Rendered Games To Your TV

OnLive, the streaming game service, has matured really fast in just five months. I liked the original public release, when it was on just computers, but now it’s come to a console that plugs into your TV. I like it.
