- consumers no longer have to travel to a store to buy the game
- no download time as it is streamed
- in theory it's cheaper
- using it on a computer opens it up to a wider market as people no longer have to pay hundreds of pounds for games consoles
- Cuts out the retailer
Disadvantages of OnLive
- There is no more socialisation involved with buying games anymore
- It would be cutting out the publisher and console manufacturers losing them a lot of money
- The graphics produced in the games wont look at good on a normal computer screen as opposed to HD television
- If your connection to the internet is not up to standard then this may not work as it is all streamed online
- subscription is $14.99 a month which works out to be expensive
