Can afford that quadcore super pc to run your dreamgames?

Here's an alternative
http://streammygame.com/smg/index.php

Basically this service will stream your gaming experience to your crummy lil pc, as if it was a movie. Don't believe me try out the low resolution edition for free.

You need internetz, Keyboard and a screen. The future is awesome.

No thanks, I prefer crisp graphics not shitty movie-quality crap.

Come back when they can offer 100 GB/s of streaming bandwidth.

It is interesting, especially for those who can't play on their comp, and don't mind crummy graphx of course

this is ahead of it's time. and by the time it gets up to it's time, it won't be needed.

I beg to differ. Streaming media is the future and this is the first step in non-hardware dependent computer gaming.

Somewhere, something has to be rendering that game.

Yeah. At the same place where you're streaming your movies, porn, news etc etc from.

huh? you have to have one HELL of a connection to get a decent experience. but a big problem: playing Fallout 3 is cool, but playing Fallout 3 with lag is not cool.

Uhh, no. Streaming videos are rendered by your computer, not by the server.

huh? for this to happen, there'd need to be a million times the amount of bandwidth than there is today.

and by the time we get to interwebs 5.0 and everyone has 100 GB/S speeds like Viluin said, nobody will need someone else's computer to play a game. they can play it on their own.
